I CHALLENGE YOU (today)
I challenge you!!!!
That’s RIGHT…I am challenging anyone who wants to play today! Pair your teas (today) with songs – if you can – and post a video along with them! Sort of like a word association type thing…does a tea remind you of a song? Why? Does it share the same name as your tea/song? Tell us! Or does the video go hand in hand with the tea some way? Be as creative or as random as you wish! I can’t wait to see who plays a long today!!!
Do this within your tea review – not necessarily here in this topic – I thought it might be FUN incase anyone wants to play along!!!
LOL fun idea! I am drinking a Keemun. It’s strong and a bit smoky, the caffiene makes it feel like it has a bit of an edge to it. so ‘smoke on the water’ by deep purple popped into my head. here is a video for the song (live version)

That is very Smoky and it has a Lot of Caffiene going for it.
Love the Purple since they Started in the late 60’s
haha ok, another just popped into my head! Earlier this morning I was drinking an assam from two leaves and a bud. it’s extremely smooth, and tastes like honey. made me think of Smooth Operator from Sade. hehehe!

Nice!
I would have chosen SLOW LIKE HONEY by Fiona Apple :)
Well I just pulled out some old Dragonwell to make green tea chicken noodle soup, and then I saw this thred and thought what song goes with dragons, and then I remembered the band called Soup Dragons. Perfect!

Hopefully this pot of soup turns out to be a divine too! Here’s the recipe: http://steepster.com/discuss/14-cooking-w-tea?page=10#forum_post_21060
It was really good soup! I used 1lb chicken, 12 oz tea, reconstituted dried oyster mushrooms, soba noodles, and added a bit of garlic and some shredded carrots. I also had some crispy wonton strips on top of mine. The DH and I ate the whole pot (2.5 bowls each!) Hopefully it will help his cold and keep me from getting it.
i haven’t thought of the soup dragons in ages. love them! soup sounds amazing, too. i am going to try to make it!
OKAY…I just might have to continue this today! It was FUN yesterday…who’s in!?

Last night was BBC News about Tuscan and Teavana’s Garden Aria, this time perfected with a pinch of hibiscus, two rose hips, and some Tangerine Bai Mu.
A.K.A. The Hungarian Suicide Song. Its original untranslated lyrics supposedly have causes people to commit suicide.
Edit: Holy craploads of spelling errors Batman! This frog needs more tea, stat! D=
ok I’ll play again! :) This morning I’m drinking a second flush Darjeeling from TeaGschwendner. The first thing that popped into my head was something with a tabla, Jaan by Talvin Singh.
