3226 tasting notes

Cuppageek Advent Day 20

Yes, I am still a day behind getting these notes up, but I hope to catch up tonight!

When I saw what my random draw had produced yesterday, I set it aside to enjoy in the evening with my husband, because this is one I already own and one I know he enjoys.

My husband usually drinks this outside in the rocker in the dark, so when he poured it, he said, “It’s pink!” Yes, my big bearded 6’4” husband has a weakness for pink food and drink. Pink iced shortbread cookies, pink iced doughnuts or cupcakes, pink lemonade…he can not resist. He already liked this tea but doubly so now that he sees it brews up pale pink.

It is apple-y and chamomile, fresh and light. I think it would be equally good cold though I have only had it hot, but I do love cold chamomile in summer and I think this would be a delicious sweet tea.i am so glad it is not cinnamon heavy, just apple pie spiced.

Another good one!

I like it so much, I don’t think my pouch will last until iced tea weather to try it!

That is a pretty adorable trait!

White Antlers: he really is a dear heart! He is so gifted. He can draw, which is where daughter Youngest gets it because I can’t do a stick man. He can build or repair ANYTHING. In the past couple of decades of marriage, I don’t know if he has ever not said “thank you, sweetie, that was very good” for his meal, even if all I did was take it out of a box and put it on a plate. He is a good guy. And every morning that he leaves for work, he stands by the bed and puts his hand on my head and recites the Aaronic blessing and then kisses my head. We aren’t Jewish…..he just does it. I am not sure how it started, He very much believes in blessing people. :)

Oh, and HE is actually Ashman. I am RA. He put it together for a username long ago. It was his nickname all through school and some friends still call him Ash or Ashman.

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fourteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
