Awkward Soul

Awkward Soul drank White Tiger (organic) by DAVIDsTEA

So I really wanted white tea this morning, and White tiger is up there on my fav white teas. However, I wanted something more.

Brewing up white tiger as normal, I sneak in a little DavidsTea “Blueberry Jam”. The result was very yummy! I used: 1.5t White Tiger and 0.5t of Blueberry Jam.

First off, this blend steeps up to a weird smokey quartz colour. Very cool.

Taste? Very very blueberry! The white tea comes out adding lightness, with white tigers own blueberry taste – however the Blueberry jam adds even more blueberry flavor, sweetness and a bit of black tea depth.

I’m going to do this again (also stretches my stash of both teas, lol)

Profile

Bio

I’m a knitter and crocheter that loves to work on a project and drink tea. I worked as a counsellor and I chain-drink tea to keep me calm and grounded.

I’m a tea blogger – The Oolong Owl http://oolongowl.wordpress.com/

I was raised on floral oolongs and green teas, mostly “beauty” teas. As a kid (and still to this day) I can guzzle an entire pot of tea at a Chinese or Japanese restaurant.
These days I like adventurous and interesting tea blends. I’m into white, black, oolong, pu’erh, guayusa, mate and green teas. I’m not into rooibos but I keep buying it anyway.

The tea brand that got me started into loose leaf teas was DavidsTea. I used to live in Vancouver Canada and had access to their shop, however that is now limited since I moved to southern California.

However, the perks of living in the US is ultra cheap, fast shipping! Since then, I’ve been loving 52 Teas, Butiki Teas, Lupicia, and The Persimmon Tree.

Other stuff I’m into: Brazilian jiu-jitsu, metal music, drawing, painting and nail polish.

I have a husband and a bunny who both hate tea. More for me!!!! MUUAHAHAHAHAAA
