SIPDOWN! (I love typing that. I will never not love typing that.)

I only had enough tea to make about half a cup, so I filled in the gap with Harney & Sons Vanilla. Like a philistine.*

*(I have a friend from England who says mixing teas or wine is the mark of someone deeply uncultured. I say, if you have some dregs, smash ’em together. Do it for science. Do it for adventure.)

I wasn’t sure what the vanilla addition was going to do with the base tea. It was a win.

Let me make a suggestion, 52teas: if/when you re-release this blend, put some vanilla in there. It makes the raspberry and nut stronger, somehow. I have no idea how the science works, but yum. I liked this blend to begin with, but it’s now leveled up.

I have to say, I agree with you. I like the adventure of blending teas.

Bio

I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, crafter, geek, and recent tea convert. I love teas that are sweet, zippy (caffeinated), and hopeful. In concrete terms, that’s usually black or maté tea, with some chocolate/vanilla/berry/nut in there somewhere. If it gives me the dessert experience without the calories, my heart soars.

I’m not a big fan of mint, grass (“yogi farts”), sours, or bitterness.

I’m into the idea of trading to try new things. If you think our flavor profiles coordinate, let me know, and we can swap boxes!
