Peach Apple Crisp from The Persimmon Tree Tea Company

Alphakitty drank Peach Apple Crisp by The Persimmon Tree Tea Company

I decided to give this one another shot. It was so fruity iced, but I wanted more of that apple cobbler feel, so I hot brewed it with a pinch of cinnamon and added brown sugar to the cup. It’s not like an in-your-face baked good, but definitely better with a bit of sprucing up—I am thinking of mixing the rest of my sample 50/50 with Brioche for the real pastry feel.

Tea has always been a passion of mine, though I got away from it during college. A lack of cupboard space and a constant influx of people into my suite made me pretty much abandon my teas at home. But now that I’m done with school, it’s definitely come back with a vengeance—to the point where I’ve purchased about 65 different kinds in the past 3 months!

I like most kinds of teas—yes, even peach, which I used to think I disliked!. Oolongs are definitely my favorite, and I’m an avid fan of earl grey, floral teas, and chai blends along with anything melon. The only kind of teas on my “no” list are rooibos blends (which gives me headaches) and banana flavored ones since bananas are public enemy #1 in my mind.

The best thing about tea for me is how you can be passionate about it and still have it integrate into all of your other hobbies. I like a lot of things: writing, video games, books, sewing, figure collecting, astronomy… it’s a long list. But whatever I’m doing, I can have a cup of tea in hand!
