From Adagio Custom Blends, Cara McGee

“I do the cakes,” he admits to me. “The cakes?” I ask. I’ve been preoccupied with watching the boy from District 2 send a spear through a dummy’s heart from fifteen yards. “What cakes?” “At home. The iced ones, for the bakery,” he says…. “It’s lovely. If only you could frost someone to death,” I say.

Inspired by The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins which I am in no way affiliated with. This is created purely for my own enjoyment.

I threw caution to the wind tonight when brewing this. Assuming it was green and should be treated lightly I’ve been steeping this at a low temperature. This time I used slightly cooled boiling water, and I have to admit that this smells 1000000x better than it did before. The chai smells are becoming much more apparent than before.
This, I just dunno. I am glad I finally tried it at a hotter temp! It totally cleared up my previous complaint: not enough chai. It really brought out the spicier notes in this blend. I’m still getting the vanilla, but it helps round it out instead of dominating the whole cup. This is greatly improved with the temperature increase, so I am changing my original scoring on this blend.

I had to inform my youngest about this blend. She’s a HUGE Hunger Games fan. Peeta is her favorite character, and her first celeb crush. Ugh!

lolol I know TONS of people bought it just for that! I’ve never actually read any of them. But with the $5 off coupons it probably wouldn’t be hard for them to grab a bag. :)

@LiberTeas, could be worse. The Backstreet Boys (particularly Brian) were my first “celeb” crush. Peeta’s pretty neat, though! : )
@Tamm, I read the books years ago as they came out (I worked in a bookstore) and am actually re-reading them now to brush up on the facts so I can keep up in conversations. They’re pretty compelling, despite not great writing and a horrific subject matter. If you’re an avid reader they’re worth a shot, since they go quickly and then you can talk about them with authority when/if the subject comes up. : )

At least I know lots of people with copies, so I won’t have to buy them myself! To be honest, I don’t even own a full set of Harry Potter novels because I mostly loaned them from the library.

I read most things from the library. I’ve always gots a couple things on hold or coming in. I’ve taken to getting TV shows from the library too, especially cooking shows.

O.O I didn’t know anyone could rent tv shows (probably dvds right?) from the library. I have one up here where I live, but I’ve never been to it. Before I had a car it was way to far to walk; so I never got into that. I wish I had some more time to read atm. but I’m waiting for the semester to be over.

Mmm. My boyfriend gave me an Adagio gift card for Christmas, and I knew this was one of the teas I wanted to try. I adore Peeta, and the tea sounded amazing as well! I’ve had Adagio’s chocolate chai and enjoyed it, and I like how the vanilla green and almond kind of cut the spices. A nice tea to sip on Christmas <3
