Cynthia Carter

Cynthia Carter drank Black Dragon Pearls by Adagio Teas

I opened the tin last night, and my first thought was "rabbit droppings! I used 5 balls for a small (about 16 oz) teapot. Mmm – smooth, malty, luxurious dark tea. I had this with a luxurious breakfast this morning – scrambled eggs with fines herbes, fresh figs and grapes with wheat toast. This is the life!

Hahaha, the rabbit droppings I’ve seen are smallish and look like little pellets. These must have come from a much larger animal.

Your breakfast sounds delightful. I had an english muffin. Not even close.

Wow…you made me feel really sad about skipping breakfast. I wasn’t a huge fan of the black dragon pearls (I was using 3 per cup and multi infusions) but your breakfast sounds totally fab!

@LENA F. I used three on my first go round but tried it with 5 on the second. [I brew by the cup, too, so 8 oz.] It was much improved that way.
