OK, I made it again, with more tea, for more time. It’s nearly the same, maybe a tad more flavorful. Maybe. Maybe this batch is different than what others drank, maybe all the sriracha has finally killed my tastebuds, but I’m sticking to my earlier tasting note. This tea is light and lemony and perfectly fine. I wouldn’t order it again, but I won’t mind finishing it.
I’ve been saying maybe all day, can you tell?
Here are the things I drink: Tea, water, coffee, beer, whiskey, wine.
I’ve been drinking tea since I was a little girl, but only recently began learning about tea and drinking loose leaf.
I prefer unflavored tea to flavored, tea leaves to tisanes, but I’m not inflexible and will try nearly anything.
I’m still learning, so thank you in advance for your patience and your help.
Also, I had to come up with a way to quantify my ratings because I was being really inconsistent:
100-90: Delicious, must keep in stock.
89-80: Excellent, a definite reorder.
79-70: Good, an occasional reorder.
69-50: Pleasant, but it was a one night stand.
49-30: Not good, but drinkable.
29-20: Bad, but I finished the cup.
19-10: Terrible. Couldn’t finish a cup.
10 and below: Undrinkable, requires mouthwash and counseling.
