malomorgen drank Sweet Chai by Yogi Tea

I must say I’m almost never in the mood to drink this one or Sweet Chilly. No they arent that bad it’s just that they are really strong and weird. And i dont like licorice. I imagine i’d wanna drink them while eatind a rice meal or something like that. Right now im havin some plain butter cookies with it and it’s rather good together. I’d say this is a tea that goes way better with food. Gotta find some word for that kind of tea. Foodside tea? Nom and Drink Tea? idk…

Anyways i got less water so i steeped it bit shorter. It’s still very spiced and peppery. But with cookies it goes along well. Leaves my mouth hot and sweetish afterwards…
So its peppery from ginger, sweet from licorice and weirdly spicy from everything else. Interesting would be the right word…

Teabag message: Jedes Lächeln ist ein direkter Erfolg.
(goes to google translate)
Each smile is a direct success. (lol that sounds so German)

Btw i’m saving/collecting all these teabag messages ;)

Hmmm…I’ll have to contemplate the food-required tea name. I totally get what you’re sayin’ there.

I’m thoroughly enjoying the fact that you post the teabag message both with original and translated text. Are you going to do something “artsy-fartsy” with them? :)

i’m not quite artsy as you are. cant say about fartsy lol… for now i just put it all in a box and let it stack. we shall see some day…

LOL! I’ll keep my eye out for cool online projects that would use those tags. And I agree that we won’t get into “fartsy.” ;)

Bio

born with a bit of a restless, curious and exploring spirit ;) love to travel and i do it a lot lately. enjoy good food and drinks. love trying out new stuff. just about to start exploring the world of teas and i’m really enthusiastic about it ;)

EDIT 4 months later:
still a n00b here but starting to get it ;) i try to buy loose tea but i got a lot of teabags too cuz it’s easier to find here. from not liking black tea ended up love it. green can be quite good too but waiting for more real ones to try. whites are sometimes awesome, sometimes not, rooibos and fruity blends are a good replacement for juices… and so on… still excited about every new tea… loving it more every day :D

since my favorite hobby is photography i take photos whenever something is interesting. including my tea making process…
