I expected to feel horrible on the morning after time change, but instead woke up feeling refreshed. Although it is November 7, we are having what feels like a lovely spring morning. Granted, it is a bit cloudy but it is warm and lovely, and the crown mahonia is full of honeybees buzzing with excitement over their full saddlebags of pollen.
I wanted to keep the sunny vibes gojng with my tea this morning, and almost went for the fruity Blueberry Green from Harney which is almost empty. I opted instead for this tea which has bright ginger and mandarin flavor and is one of my older teas and therefore in need of attention.
When hot, this is so very delicious. The ginger is just right for me, giving warmth and sparkle without burning. It doesn’t detract from the citrusy brightness. If I leave it to cool too long, it does start to border on a little more brisk than I want, but a quick ride in the microwave fixes that.
I made a huge pot because I plan to sweeten the rest and drink it iced for lunch.
