September Prompt – A tea with honey in it.
I usually use this tea for making a sweet syrup and then adding to sparkling water for a root beer-like drink.
Today, Ashman is away at the Woodwright’s School taking another class from Roy Underhill, so I decided on this cool, solitary morning to have a latte with it.
It was decent, nothing to write home about but pleasant to sip on the porch watching the world not go by. (Seriously, where was everybody? I thought there would be lots of walkers out on one of the first cool mornings of fall!) I am not a fan of lots of black pepper in chai, nor of hot pepper in tea, nor of super savory tea, so this one – though it is humble – is a decent cup for cool weather lattes. I felt like it took more honey to get it sweet enough for me compared to how much sugar I would have put, but traditional chai is usually pretty sweet.
