Additional notes: Advent stash selection from yesterday. ALWAYS a delicious hit with me. Somehow the first steep is still cakey! The second spicier. I wish the pine would last longer. They can’t ever stop blending Christmas Cake!
Also having 52Teas Chestnut Praline today and will be having Fairytale of NY (as my night tea) from my stash as B&B’s advent tea for today. Really…. this is why I don’t buy advents. ESPECIALLY a B&B advent. I already own most of the teas.
I am really craving nutty tea profiles and I’m not sure what I have around that fits that…. has anyone ever tried adding peanut butter to a mug of tea???

tea sipper If you add peanut butter to your mug of tea, you’ll need to mix everything in a Ninja or a blender to create an emulsion because you are dealing with oil and water. Peanut butter will not just melt into the hot liquid and given that it’s so full of oil, it will separate and may give you an unpleasant cup.

haha, alright – I wasn’t thinking about it when I asked… just too much hope imagining it would completely dissolve perfectly. Of course that wouldn’t happen. :D

Well, you never know! Imagine the first person who ever ate an oyster, a pomegranate or an artichoke. LOL!

You could always make some nut brittle to eat with your tea or something.

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!
