Another lovely blend from MissB’s lovely package! This one sounded magical with its marshmallows and snowflakes…and EARL GREY. I love the idea for this blend. Maybe this blend will make me tolerate the freezing weather this week a bit more than I can’t. Sadly, I don’t think I can actually see marshmallows in my blend, unless it is just my sample. There are snowflakes though! I had two cups of this and they were both equal in taste: really well done. It tastes to me like the usual Earl Grey (though maybe a bit sweeter… the sprinkles?) but an EG that is great, even if it is on the lighter tasting side, both on the bergamot and the strength of the leaves. If it wasn’t this light, it might be very similar to some of my favorite Earls. Very bright, fresh, sweet. I can tell from the two blends I’ve tried so far from Herbal Infusions, I would be in love with all of them!

No marshmallows in the blend, only marshmallows in the flavor :)

Aw, but there should be! :D

There’s about 250g of this (or so) left if you feel tempted to order any! #nudge I’m only saying this because I decided I had to have it yesterday and asked what was left. :P (Only snagged 50g though)

I’m glad I snagged 50g because this sounds like a winner. I’m surprised there is even any left, as I expected it to sell out in a day.

I WOULD order some but I really shouldn’t right now! And then I would have to order everything from them. :D The grapefruit tea that Dex sent me was AMAZING.

MissB

There’s more?! Jeepers. What am I doing wrong to get a hold of Dan? I’ve emailed him a few times, with zero answer. Good to know…

VariaTEA

He posted on the discussions board that you could order the cream of earl grey and ask for it to be replaced with the marshmallow snowflake earl. However, that was at least a week ago and he only blended a pound.

I sent him a facebook message – that seemed to work quicker! I wanted to make sure they still had the Snowflake EG left before I ordered and I had a reply in half an hour!

Hi! I love tea and trying new ones – it adds a bit of variety to my day! Books, music, TV & movies are my thing… and tea, of course.

Most of the teas listed in my cupboard are actually sample sizes. I don’t really have 2,000 ounces of tea around here! Many of my teas have only one teaspoon left… maybe two. But I like keeping them in my cupboard list for reference to what I could be sipping. Usually, I write tasting notes once for each tea. I’m still drinking them, just not writing tasting notes each time!

I’m always in search of: Hattialli, Qu Hao black, Jin Jun Mei, teas using marshmallow root.

My dislikes: hibiscus, ginger (unless in chai), turmeric, bee pollen, charcoal type flavors

My ratings:
95-100 – Super awesome deliciousness favorites – cupboard essential
80-95 – Also pretty delicious
65-80 – Pretty good
50-65 – Okay
1-50 – Probably won’t want to sip it again

I’m planning on being a Steepsterer as long as there IS a Steepster, so if you’re not hearing from me, that means something happened to my health… if you know what I mean. (Or as evidenced by the great computer hiatus of 2019, something happened to my computer… I have a dumb phone so can’t access internet on that. As of 12/20/21 my wifi might start getting unreliable.)

Happy sipping!
