This stuff is like an ancient relic in my cupboard since I have no idea how long I’ve had it or when I bought it. I don’t buy too many teabags anymore now that I’ve discovered a store where I can get most of my herbs in bulk.
Today has been a crazy day of very long working hours and my brain is kind of fried. I definitely wanted something soothing and relaxing so I thought I’d give this a whirl again. I know some people don’t really like chamomile but I do think it’s nice. It’s always felt very soothing to me and I like the appleish sort of flavor. Lavender is a more difficult thing for me to get used to in tea. I love the aroma of it but since I use a lavender bath oil I always feel like I’m drinking bath oil or soap.
This seems to be a pleasant diversion right now and is hitting the spot. As you can imagine, most things from a company called “Traditional Medicinals” are more focused on health benefits than they are on flavor. I’m finding the lavender to be strong but nice. I did feel the need to add a bit of sugar to this. Don’t know if I will buy anymore but will finish off the few teabags I have remaining.
Hopefully I will be drifting off to lullaby land soon, good night Steepies. :)
I can understand the soapy quality of lavender-I still likes it, and chamomile too!
