T2

Hahaha whoops, I didn’t have this listed in my cupboard. There goes my accurate count… you’d think with this few blends left I’d have a handle on it! Sigh.

Feeling tummy gripe-y this afternoon. Let’s get rid of this tasty sample. I’m not allowed to restock this until I’ve gotten the rest of my ridiculous tea collection right down, but you’d better believe as soon as that happens my Sunrise baby is going straight back to the pool room. Love forever.

Sipdown #15. Bagged up some more of this for a swap and put the rest into a 2L jug for iced tea! Spectacular. I hate not having this in my cupboard at all times but sipdown rules are rules and we’re on the downhill run toward winter now anyway, where Southern Sunrise shines as an iced. Still fabulous warm but iced is where it’s at, so I’ll restock this in the spring. Enjoying this last jug while I can, it’s turned quite chilly this evening!

As a reward for hitting 15 down I’ve busted open a couple of sealed boxes. Hooray, self rewarding!

MWAHAHAHAHAHA I CAN DRINK THE REST OF MY SUNRISE SUPPLY BECAUSE IT’S BEEN ADDED TO THE REGULAR T2 STABLE! TODAY IS THE BEST DAY!

My favourite fruit tisane, this is seriously a dream as an iced tea. A whole hunk of grapefruit but without the tartness of the fruit, complimented by the lemongrass, hibiscus and apple. A bit of added lemon and grapefruit flavour, which is a bit of a letdown (just let the ingredients do the work, T2!). Still, I can’t fault this delicious and refreshing tisane.

I think it was only available as a summer/Christmas (Aus) promotion so I’m hoping they bring it into the standard range, because my cube is getting low!

At first I thought this would be similar to Melbourne Breakfast, due to the vanilla aroma. However, this is a lot lighter and less sweet, much better for drinking on it’s own. I wouldn’t drink it every day, however, it is very pleasant and is a fairly regular tea for me.

Delicious twist on the classic Earl Grey. A nice peachy aroma and aftertaste, strong enough to be noticeable but not overpowering, and not too sweet.

How that I’ve finished the easy win sipdowns, it’s going to be a bit slower going around here!

Goodbye for now, you gorgeous thing!

Getting close to the end of my current stash of this so I’ve started dropping back to one tsp in a 500ml mug and it’s still delicious. Taking it easy.

Oy vey. I don’t often let myself run out of this one, but I’ve got a few other bedtime herbals in my cupboard at the moment so I’m not letting myself restock until I’ve cleared through a few of those. You don’t really need more than one of those at a time, let’s be reasonable.

But being entirely unreasonable, I love this tea. It’s the best bedtime herbal I’ve ever had, and I love keeping it around even for days where I just need to take a few deep breaths. I think that’s how T2 want to market it as well, not so much as a bedtime one but just a relaxing one. Whatever. It’s the best bedtime herbal I’ve ever had. I’ve said it before (literally a few lines ago) and I’ll say it again.

SEE YOU AGAIN SOON, DARLING!

Good night, tea friends. I’m going surfing in my dreams.

Never lets me down, this one. Though I did realise tonight that it has a very earthy taste to it. Almost like a herbal pu’erh, without the tea guts. I don’t buy into a great deal of astrology but I do believe that as an earth sign, I particularly dig this. Or whatever. I don’t know.

Goodnight. <3
