Cream of Earl Grey (Organic)

So, I’m not sure where Crazy Science Experiments go here, but I just made a truly magical iced tea for my upcoming trip to the library. It’s a mix of:
- Cream of Earl Grey (David’s Tea)
- Main Squeeze Mate (David’s Tea) &
- Raspberry Cream Pie Rooibos (David’s Tea)
I don’t totally love Cream of Earl Grey hot (slightly too sickly sweet), but iced and mixed in with a few other flavors, it’s awesome.
Instructions for making something similar:
Pick 3 flavors, one black (the base) and two other, brighter flavors.
Put one perfect-measure spoonful (or one teaspoon) of each into a gravity steeper. Let sit for about 3 minutes.
Release filtered contents into a water bottle full of ice. You’re ready to rock and roll.

Having a few cups of this right now, the black tea is strong with just a hint of vanilla and creaminess throughout, it works though, and is definitely what I’d want from a tea to wake me up, would most likely make a good breakfast tea in my opinion.

This is another one of my “writing teas.” Bring on the inspiration! The bergamot is mellower, for those days when my writing is not as bold.

I wasn’t a fan of this tea in the past. However, I decided to try it as a latte and it tastes pretty delicious that way. Still not the greatest fan of it but it was a nice cup of latte.

It’s a nice tea, but I don’t understand the hype. (Why do people go crazy about Earl Grey in general?)

I do have this to say: I can drink this tea straight without adding anything – sugar, milk, or ice.

Ok as an intro to Earl Grey but since getting this tea I have found other Cream of Earl Greys with a more diverse flavour profile.

Excellent tea, so comforting . Received it in a sample gift set for Christmas this year, LOVE it.

It’s been a while since I’ve had an earl grey tea as I find most to be a little bitter, but this was delicious. It is one of the top- sellers from DAVIDsTEA so I figured it would be tasty. I’m definitely picking up some for my collection.

This is one of my morning staples. I brew it according to directions – 1.25tsp/240mL, 96C, 4-7 minutes and it always comes out great. I drink it with milk but you need to be careful because too much milk waters out the flavours. I will brew the leaves a second time and find that it quite drinkable a second time around.

I love a good EGC! This one is one of the best I have had. Can’t get lazy and let it steep too long though. When making a London Fog I like it strong, but today I just steeped it in the pot straight up. Last cup was pretty bitter because I left the infuser in it.
