aisling of tea drank Southern Belle by DAVIDsTEA

I had my lukewarm, which was perfect.

I’m not sure how I feel about this tea. I opted for agave instead of sugar, which…I dunno. Agave adds a thickness and burnt quality to tea for me. I need to get a bit and try it out at home, but personally I didn’t see much difference between this and Long Life Oolong.

I haven’t smelled or tried it yet, but it almost seemed as if it might be a Zing Me replacement (sans ginger, obviously).

I prefer this one and it’s a bit cheaper, so I might get a bit of this to replace my long life when it’s gone

Not only 3minutes ago, but also every day.
Yay for typo-correction fail

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!
