This is another sample from Brenden at Whispering Pines, and with my ginger-y, medicinal tea kick today, I thought this was my most appropriate choice before bed.
As it brewed, I thought to myself: there is no way this can actually taste like a ginger snap. I mean… there’s a certain feel to ginger snaps, so MissB, don’t get your hopes up!
Well, I should’ve gotten my hopes up. This is delicious, and even my youngest (who adores ginger snaps) said this was yummy. It has the same spice, bite, and breadiness of a ginger snap, and now I really want one…

Oh, boo. I should have said something! Whispering Pines is amazing. Quick shipping, and some really adventurous tea. I’m sending you some in our swap, ones that you can have. :P
I want this tea! I will have to place a WP order soon :D my boyfriend has almost drank through my ounce of Campfire Blend! They have very nice teas :)
:) This is one of the few rooibos teas that I enjoy drinking. Grr, now I want ginger snaps! I have a few pieces of ginger shortbread I made left…I should have those. haha
Ginger shortbread? Now you’re just killing me. MissLena, I completely agree!
Yep, Ginger Shortbread! :) Lucky for you, the recipe is on my site and is INCREDIBLY simple! :D

If you prefer a LOT of kick, use three tablespoons of ginger root rather than 2.
I love those old fashioned Ginger Snaps that are REALLY strong :-)
Those shortbread recipes look amazing, Whispering Pines! I usually use a rice-corn-tapioca blend in baking, and I find my shortbread just falls apart. I’m excited to try it with buckwheat. Thanks!
Ahh yes, buckwheat is my favorite! I’m not even gluten-intolerant and I prefer buckwheat over most everything else. :) These shortbread recipes go so perfectly with tea that I almost always have a batch in cookie tin on the table! I think my next batch will have pumpkin spice and orange zest :)
