Tea
I love tea , even when I was a kid , to have a cuppa tea before bed with a little milk and sugar was one of my fave treats , it made me feel like a little lady . Earl Grey is my fave for hot tea , Twinnings is the best IMHO .
I do drink coffee sometimes but I never make it , and I only like it from fresh ground beans ( <---beverage snob) and usually only hazelnut .
When I was in England I was chidded for drinking iced tea . I get hot easy so I drink a lot of iced tea . Earl Grey is black tea with bergamot oil added , it does not make the best iced tea just as I think green tea is nicer iced than hot .
For xmas we got a large collection of Boston Teas ( I had never heard of the company before that) so I have been making a new Iced tea every day or two , some are nice and a couple so far have been awful . I will share the results of my tea experiments with you here as I try them . First I tried the chai , I thought it was going to be like the spiced chai you get at Mediterranean restaurants but it wasn't it was disgusting , I binned it . Then I tried a peach flavored white tea , that was pretty yummy . Yesterday I tried Boston's mango tea , it's a flavored black tea .I think I over steeped it a bit but it would have been better with a lighter tea , it was a bit perfumy , by the third glass I was developing a taste for it . Today's iced tea is pomegranate green tea and is very yummy . Check back to see what tommorrow's tea will be .
