I adopted this off the pay-it-forward table at work because…well…a perfectly viable unopened tin of tea. Do I need more justification?
Actually, with iced tea season almost upon us, I thought it would be pleasant this summer. But before chilling it, I made a conventional cup this afternoon. For a grocery store selection, it isn’t bad. The jasmine didn’t taste like guest soap. I was a little heavy handed on the water temp so it was a little bitter this time around, but next time, with a little more care, I think it will be acceptably leafy and vegetal.
A good cheap date, especially with your eyes closed, listening to the maple tree “helicopters” plinking on the roof.
I closed my eyes and went right back to Ohio. Kroger, jasmine green tea, helicopters.
Yep its that time of year. Helicopters abound.
Next up, cottonwood!
If I could be a real artist, the first thing I would want to capture in watercolor would be the green and pink helicopters fresh fallen and so delicate!
