I just brewed a pot of this, added a teaspoon of rock sugar, and it is currently cooling in the fridge. I look forward to tasting this because it’s been very very hot in DC, and after a morning of berry picking all I wanted was some iced tea.
I had a cup before it was done chilling and I like this a lot. I think it would be marvelous as an iced tea.
I’m a tea-aholic. I’ve always loved tea. It is soothing and warm and comforting. I always had it when we went out to eat as a child so my first association is with rich and delicious food.
As an adult, I’m learning to enjoy tea on its own merits, and bask in its subtleties and varieties. The ritual of making a cup of tea is instantly relaxing.
I prefer oolong and white teas, followed by greens. For the most part, I don’t like straight black tea, but appreciate it as part of a blend or flavored. I’ve learned to love the world of flavored teas out there.
I’m slowly learning to appreciate rooibos blends, which I started drinking for its anti-inflammatory properties.
