aisling of tea drank Chocolate Rocket by DAVIDsTEA

I started off my day with this after a night of very little sleep. I desperately needed a pick me up as today was the Pride parade. It wouldn’t do for me to be utterly exhausted! It was just what I needed, I iced it with my new plastic ice cubes and enjoyed it on the ride into town.

I made this one for our 5 hour drive to Etobicoke on Saturday morning. I hadn’t thought to try it iced but that is a good idea. Maybe before ball this afternoon.

Yikes. Well, I hope you had fun in our neck of the woods and enjoyed your trip to our local DT! We love the shop in Sherway Gardens, the girls are always so nice!

We did enjoy our trip. But the mall was a zoo. The store was so packed there was barely time to get my mug refilled. But I don’t mind that when you see 4 people working hard to keep everyone happy. They were very nice to us. The driving however was crazy. I needed to tea to calm down after the time on the 401 and 427. My hand hurt from gripping the steering wheel so tight. LOL

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!
