I hate eggnog, but this blend grew on me over time. It’s all creamy vanilla as long as I don’t add sugar. The slightest sweetness and it gets all eggy on me. I’ve tried cold brewing the second steep but it took on a bitter note that I didn’t like. Maybe I’ll try a cold brew from scratch one of these days before I run out of leaf. It’s unlikely, though. This is a good flavor for cold weather and the last thing I’m in the mood for in this freezing cold is iced tea.
I’m going to miss Butiki, but this tea I can do without. DavidsTea’s Vanilla Orchid is very similar and I like that one better because I don’t have to worry about any egginess creeping in.
