I’ve seen others put in custom blends- so I hope I’m doing this correctly. I mixed Adagio’s Cream (black tea) with Tea Gschwendner’s Caramel. These were samples from The Cookie Lady and Marzipan- thanks ladies! I thought Caramel Cream sounded good. It’s already been a long hard day and it’s just the afternoon. So, I’m sitting down to rest some with my cup of tea! My sister was put into the hospital yesterday with chest pains and they are doing testing. We homeschool and have had a full day. I’ve done 4 loads of laundry and cleaned the kitchen. I have overdone it and I’m now hurting. A cup of tea to the rescue! (And essential oils for pain!). Enjoying the caramel and cream flavors. I am getting both flavors but the caramel is the strongest. I would have liked a creamy cup- had one from the tea spot that was really creamy. Kinda sits on the tongue with a bit of aftertaste that has a bitter bite to it. Perhaps I oversteeped it? Directions on one was 3minutes and other was 2 minutes. I should have gone for the less time but I did it in the middle at 2 1/2 minutes. I would try this blend again.

Flavors: Caramel, Cream

Thank you. She was released from the hospital tonight. They dud a heart Cath. Echo and lung test. I don’t thing they really found anything. Perhaps it was stress. She’s to follow up with a dr. Thanks again for the concern.

Yikes! Sounds like you’re having a time of it. Hope all’s well with your sister. Remarkable how tea and sympathy (aka, comfort and community) never go out of style. Here’s hoping a warm cup can warm your heart.

Last year while out of town I found teavana and fell in love. I love hot spicy teas. This year I returned and purchased even more. I also received the Breville One Touch for my birthday. I’m open to expanding past Teavana. I signed up for the monthly box. I’d really like to find an organic flavorful tea company! Looking forward to sipping away!
Update: spicy chai’s are still my favorite. But I’ve found I also like mint, green, jasmine, oolong.
I have also discovered I don’t like floral. The old lady smell is enough to make me not even try it brewed.
And undecided about herbals. Guess I haven’t tried enough of those yet.

Still on my discovery journey of teas.
