Ginger, vanilla, and Assam sound like one of the greatest combinations ever. Tearing open the bag, I get a hint of ginger but not as much as I would like. I’m considering a trip to Bulk Barn to acquire some candied ginger for this. Steeped, the vanilla cream comes out more. It reminds me of those vanilla-flavoured cubes of caramel.
The scent of the base is slightly off-putting, though. One tea shop in Victoria carries a ton of Metropolitan teas in glass jars, and almost all of them had this same dry undertone. It doesn’t smell or taste like an Assam at all. It tastes better than it smells but something is still lacking. I get the vanilla cream above anything else and not that much ginger. I’ll have to experiment with this further before I reach a final verdict.

This makes for a great eggnog latte
Ah yeah, I was thinking that actually, and will try it that way next. Hoarding the last cup of eggnog because I can’t seem to find it anymore.
I am considering buying more eggnog and freezing it, because you can freeze milk. But it wasn’t even on sale at the store I went to today!
I stopped seeing it over a week ago already. Seems a little too early.
:( :(
No loss, really. I’m sure I can make my own anytime.
