That’s much better.
I started today with a tea which I wasn’t in the right mood for. Unfortunately, my personal tea stash at work is limited in selection (only four varieties!), so I picked another one and crossed my fingers. Luckily, it worked.
First Steep: Although I absentmindedly left it steeping in my thermos for a too long, the strong roses seemed to mask out most of the bitterness on the surface and paired nicely with my salad lunch and apple.
Second Steep: Rosiness is still there in taste and aroma, but significantly muddled. ‘Tis a shame since this tea’s near-entire identity is in the roses.
