June Sipdown Prompt – a peachy tea
Another from Youngest – many thanks!
I actually had this yesterday morning rather early. Neither Ashman nor myself slept much Saturday night due to revenge bedtime procrastination. My brother had called and asked to meet for breakfast near the interstate as he and his wife travel to Charleston for a little vacation. We are so accustomed to eating at home – early – that I made a pot of tea and took some biscotti to the backyard for a pre-breakfast warm up.
This is just made for being a breakfast tea. Everyone knows what I mean when I say it has that classic tea flavor that hangs in there after you swallow it? We drank it plain but it would be great with milk and sugar, however it doesn’t need it.
Having it hot and plain, the vanilla is the first aroma that translates to taste for me. There is peach and apricot but nowhere near the high-note punch of Harney Apricot or their Midsummer’s Peach, which you smell from a distance. (I love all of them. No judgment, they are just different.) The fruit flavors here are toward the darker, baked side rather than candy-like. Liked it well enough to have again today for breakfast as it just seemed like what my brain was in the mood for.
I bet it would make an awesome sweet iced tea and I have enough to give that a try. Will update soon.
