English Breakfast with Pomegranate from Mount of Olives Treasures Tea

gmathis drank English Breakfast with Pomegranate by Mount of Olives Treasures Tea

Found a forgotten bag in the bottom of my work tin and needed an afternoon pick-me-up, but it was getting late enough I didn’t want to waste a cup of really good stuff … so I tried it again after some months.

Must have accidentally found the sweet spot for time and temp (I sure wasn’t paying attention) but it was really pretty tasty. Just enough of the pomegranate came out to make it a nice, fruity afternoon tea.

Late afternoon is the perfect tea bag time. I breathe funny at the thought of using loose leaf when I only have time for steeping one cup.

Bio

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
