I got the assortment of 18 teas to try, and for some reason the idea of mint tea appealed to me tonight.
Only… not so much.
It smells amazing. Like candy canes, like dad’s old work thermos, like my childhood. Without sugar, though? Oh, ugh. Mint tea is awful. I’d rather eat a candy cane, thanks. It tastes like grass and leaves the feeling of toothpaste as it evaporates off the tongue.
I’ll probably try this again after I’m done with the no sugar thing, just to see if it tastes as good as I remember when I add sugar or honey to it. :)
oh no…. sometimes things are happier left as memories? =0\
I’ve never had mint tea without honey or sugar in it! What a rude surprise!

I thought you couldn’t do mint?
I thought it was OMGsrsly’s close friend that has a really serious issue with mints.
My BFF is hideously allergic and I’ve been without minty things for almost 15 years now. I’ll occasionally get York peppermint patties or a candy cane around Christmas, since they’re sure to be peppermint and not spearmint. I do not like spearmint flavoured things. Ugh.
