This was the tea for yesterday from David’s the 24 Days of Tea. Strangely, it did nothing for me. I’ve had this one before a couple of years ago and I remember that I really liked it. Did David’s “update” this tea? It wasn’t horrible. But it was oddly flavorless. Of course, I am sick, so maybe that’s why. I still have more leaf in the little jar so I may make it again at the end of December and use more leaf. Honestly, I remember loving this one a couple of years ago!

They changed the gold bits to vegan-friendly a year or two ago. I don’t know if the rest of the recipe was changed as well. I have never really been a great fan of this, but I likely have some of the original recipe here somewhere.

I did find this a bit flavorless too! :(

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
