Almond Sugar Cookie

This tea has a nice, light cookie flavor. Four minutes is definitely too long of a steep. It tastes much better at three minutes.

This past week was awful so I finished up this one as a pick me up. I accidentally steeped it for not quite long enough but used my Ingenuitea so there was no going back (normally I try to take a small sip out to taste it before but forgot.)

Nonetheless, this was wonderful at always, creamy – I noticed that someone said eggnog before and I could totally see that. It’s definitely sweet and I taste the cookie flavor, a little more almond might be nice but hey, now I’m just being nitpicky :P

I received this as a part of a trade- this was my person’s favorite tea and they enclosed a sample for me to try. Didn’t disappoint. Currently satiating my craving as I hold off on buying ATR’s Brioche for now- cinnamon spice, sweet almond, and floral vanilla. Fairly mild blend, but tasty.

Got this one from Veronica from the Christmas card exchange in December! Reminds me a lot of Lupicia’s Cookie Lots of cinnamon and cookie flavors. I think I like Lupicia’s version the best because it’s a lot richer and just better overall in my opinion.
This one is still good though! Happy to have tried it! :D
Thank you for the sample, Veronica!

This tea is soo good. I have no idea where to get Wegman’s, but that’s probably a good thing with the amount of tea in my cupboard at the moment. It really does taste like almond cookies! When I bake almond cookies, I’m a bit of an almond fiend, I put 2-3x the almond flavoring and mix in some sliced almonds. I’m glad that this tea is strong on that note! The cookie flavoring didn’t disappoint, but what can I say? I’d be in it for the almonds. Yum.

This is SO good. So so so good. It actually does taste like an almond cookie, creamy and a bit sweet somehow. I think a bit of sweetener and milk would make this into a legitimate dessert. I just got a sample’s worth, but I will absolutely be getting more.

Dropped my phone in a sink full of water today. Luckily only for a few seconds, and it is chillin in all of the rice I could find in a plastic bag…here’s hoping it recovers. I can’t afford to replace it.

I thought I missed out on this tea since I didn’t see it on the shelves when I was in Wegman’s during the holidays. Luckily, I popped in today to pick up a couple of items and saw the canister on the shelf with the unflavored black teas. I was so excited that I immediately bought a quarter pound. No regrets.

This tea has a wonderful shortbread almond cookie flavor. I really do adore it. I’m about to drink a nice big mug while I take down my Christmas tree and attempt to get my living room back to some semblance of order. Usually I get the blues once the holidays are past, but this year I’m ready to tuck into winter and just enjoy some quiet and stillness for awhile… with a cup of tea, of course.
