Ashmanra’s sipdown challenge – February 2025 Tea #3 – February 14 – International Book Giving Day – have a cuppa and enjoy a nice read!
A blustery yet sunny day. The perfect day to READ. (Like I need an excuse to read, or a prompt in order to read. hah.) I am currently attempting to read maybe seven or eight books in a row for the Morning News Tournament of Books that begins on March 6th. That’s my mention of the Tournament for this year. I decided this tea was the perfect tea for the day – Chai but super cozy! Cozy because it’s toasty! I had to stock up on a couple of 52Teas marshmallow treat blends when I saw them. I am occasionally on the lookout for them and a Chai marshmallow treat is definitely my sort of tea. It’s good stuff! A nice balance of sweetness, spice and the classic flavor of genmaicha.
Steep #1 // 1 teaspoon for a full mug // 30 minutes after boiling // 1 1/2 minute steep
Steep #2 // 30 minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep

I’m happy to hear that you’re enjoying this one! When I came across a recipe for chai spiced rice krispy squares, I was like, HOW? HOW did I never think to even try a chai spiced Marshmallow Treat tea?
Chai + genmaicha really should be a more common combination in general.
I agree. I do like the combination!
