I really wanted white tea tonight but there’s something wrong with my teacup with the filter. It’s making things taste all wonky and I figured that since white teas have a very light and delicate flavour, it’d be safe to just stick with the sachets that I have.
I had to choose between Jasmine and the black teas that I had and since it’s half past 10 already, Jasmine it is!
Okay yeah. The usual. I like Jasmine and Jasmine is good.
Gosh, I can’t wait to go home so I can have my mom’s teas. She has so many back home. I’m in need of variety!

I know I know. I just drank this like two days about but I DON’T CARE. IT IS FINALS WEEK AND I AM EXCUSED.
And because I’m craving chai again and the only chai that I have I’m trying to save. Sooo yeah. Chai. I like.

Favourite of the Disney blends.
AHAS;DKFSDF I’M DYING WITH FINALS. I’LL DO A LEGIT NOTE LATER.

Because the chai that I had on tuesday was a complete fail and I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHY.
I had Starbucks Chai Tea Latte for the first time yesterday and it was pretty good! I liked it :) Definitely going to add that to my list of usual drinks to order :)
Though it was nearly 100 degrees out, HECK. TEA. YES.

Dude. Yesterday was just a really had day for tea.
I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHY.
I was craving chai. I really wanted chai. CHAI IS GOOD.
But yesterday’s tea just tastes like butt and I didn’t do anything different.
Uggghhh okay. I’ll like.. give chai a break for now.

KIKI WHY YOU NO TASTE GOOD.
Seriously. I’ve had him twice and he was amaaaazing.
When I drank him yesterday, I have no idea what I did, it just… tasted so off.

LIVE TASTING TIME. Or umm… live noting? I DON’T EVEN KNOW.
Okay. So. This is the last tea that I have from the 4 samples that Harney gave me from my last order. The packaging for the sample packs are quite cute. This is pink aaand yeah. I was scared to try this tea at first because I wasn’t the biggest fan of rooibos, and at the time, I’ve never had chai. Now that I’ve had some rooibos teas and now that I know that I actually really like chai, I’m not as scared to try this tea! But I did read some reviews on their site and it tasted like medicine. Ummm yeah. Don’t know what to expect from this tea.
Opening the sachet aaand it smells like a spicy rooibos blend. Just what I was expecting. It kinda smells like it would have some refreshing undertones? I don’t even know. It’s like a dark burgundy in colour.
Steeping time! Oh gosh I don’t even know what temp to do this for. Okay, I’m just doing it in slightly less than boiling water. WHOA IT GOT DARK REALLY QUICKLY. It was an amber colour at first, then I bobbed the sachet up and down and now it’s like… darker.
Tasting and it smells okay? I don’t really know what to expect from it. Oh. I don’t know if I like it. Like the first two sips were decent, but now I have to finish the whole mug? This is a very bad sign. Like it was good at first! But I don’t think that rooibos and chai works well together. Well, this blend doesn’t really work. Oh whoa this is weird. Even though I know this sachet will probably steep another 2 or 3 times, I think I’ll just try to finish this mugful and then I’m done.

Backlog.
THIS TEA.
It’s pretty good! Marks & Spencer doesn’t exist where I live, but I did manage to get my hands on some when I visited the Philippines and I brought it back home with me.
I actually really like this. Out of all the tea bags I’ve tried, this would be my favourite. Between this and the Lupicia chamomile one… hmm.. I don’t know! They’re both pretty good :)

Because FINALS WEEK STRESS.
I am SO ready for the school year to be over. I’m learning to love chamomile. This tea sloooowly grew on me and I only have one sachet left after this one! Ahh well. I’ll be home soon enough and I can buy some more :)

Remember when I was all HE SMELLS LIKE MEDICINE!!
But now I’m all yuuuuuummm.
Elrond has grown on me definitely :)
