OK so maybe I figured it out. But I also have 2nd degree burns. Ha ha. So I made this again. Underleafed. 1tsp for 10 oz cup (normally use 1.5-2 tsp). When drank super hot, it tastes just like flat mountain dew. But sensitive mouth over here, burnt my tongue and palate and inside of cheeks. Ha ha, but I figured it out! Huzzah for me. I need an ice cube now.
Side note: I had no intention of burning myself on purpose, I just wasn’t paying attention when I took the first sip. Watching the movie The Mexican, with classic James Gandolfini, it is awesome and ridiculous at the same time. Gotta love those old movies.
That is a great movie and very overlooked.
