drank Jasmine Tea by Sunflower
58 tasting notes

This is my new go-to morning tea. It gets really bitter if I oversteep it, but the jasmine smell is always perfect. I just realized that Steepster seems to allow some text formatting, so I’m going to use this post to test it out.

So far, I know putting an asterisk before and after a word makes it bold

Update: not sure of what allowed text formatting there is besides bold and italics aside from hack-y html injections that messed stuff up!

Flavors: Jasmine, Tea

Preparation
185 °F / 85 °C 3 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 10 OZ / 295 ML

There’s a page here: http://steepster.com/discuss/1894-how-to-use-text-formatting-symbols-formatting-can-be-fun — but I’m not sure how updated it is. :)

I haven’t gotten those to work, but it’s interesting that they used to! I bet steepster changed how it’s formatted

Courtney

That’s weird! I’ve been using the italics and bold without any issues. How bizarre! But I’ll have to look into the ones you have here too. :)

Madeline

oh yeah, italics and bold work for me too! I meant the other ones but didn’t clarify

As far as the html stuff, that’s not really “allowing text formatting” as much as not protecting against html injection, and seems like more of a security misstep.

Madeline

Yes lol agreed, couldn’t figure out the allowed text formatting beyond italics and bold so moved on to more visually satisfying methods

The ❤ also works if you enter a standard heart emoji. :)
