Blueberry Black from The Spice and Tea Exchange

This one is new from Spice & Tea Exchange and I first tried it when a friend of mine brought it over with her cool blue cast iron teapot to brew in not too long ago. I haven’t been able to forget this tea since then and today I finally went out and bought some.
It smells incredible. Blueberry scrumptiousness. I love that there are real blueberry pieces in it and that its a Yunnan black tea.
I really like the Spice & Tea Exchange, its the only good tea store experience I can have down here.

The first pot I made is just not the same as the first time I had it… but perhaps I need more time with it. Maybe her tea pot was seasoned with this tea as she told me its been the only one brewed in it for a while.
What ended up making this tea awesome for me this time was a cranberry orange white chocolate cookie from whole foods. It was amazing and I didn’t know I even liked cranberry orange.

Anyway, I’ve been on a crazy blueberry tea kick lately, and tried some other blueberry teas not worth mentioning. I wanted to add almond milk to this but it has to defrost from being in the back of the fridge (yeah thats not normal) so I had to use regular milk instead. I also used blue agave and its much better now.
I want to figure out how to create those blueberry tea mistos I used to get at Starbucks before they took them away.

Profile

Bio

I began my tea journey in January of this year (with loose-leaf that is) and am now completely obsessed with all things tea.

My favorite teas tend to be flavored and non-flavored black teas. Iced or hot. I have a favorite white, green, and herbal as well. I don’t like smoky teas or strong rooibos teas.

Along with tea, I also love photography and nature and combine the two as much as possible. Forests and trees are my passion and I love learning about them in and out of school.

Location

Currently in south fl where forests and tea shops are non existent. I will be moving to the Pacific Northwest for the trees, my forest studies, and perfect tea weather!
