aisling of tea drank Cloud Nine by DAVIDsTEA

Ugh. Following a fight with a friend, I desperately needed something to lift my mood and this has done the trick. I always forget how much I love this tea until I make a cup. I let this one go for 3 minutes and 30 seconds, but I think that was thirty seconds too long. Will stick to 6 minutes on the resteep.

My tastes in tea have changed, so I should update this as well. I find myself leaning more towards rooibos and herbals, if only for their great ability to chill in my travel mug for hours and not get weird on me. When I have time to properly brew a cuppa, I lean towards white teas (which I only steep for 30 seconds) and black teas (which only get 2-3 minutes from me). I cannot stand green teas, they’re too fiddly for my tastes. Oolongs are great, but a bit fiddly as well. However, I love watching oolongs open up in my looseleaf brewer. I’m slowly discovering mates and falling for them…there are many I look forward to trying!

So…yeah. That’s me and my tea!
