Nom nom nom. Finishing off the sample that Stephanie sent me (thanks!). I love the pumpkin/spice combination. I tried it with some brown crystal sugar this time and it definitely adds depth and a touch of creaminess to the tea. It also resteeps quite nicely. What I’d really love to see is a combination of this and the Pumpkin Milkshake. Like a really creamy pumpkin tea with a spicy kick. If I had more leaf I might experiment with a half creme brulee/half milkshake brew. I added a tsp of the Pumpkin Milkshake to the resteep at 185 F for 4 minutes. It worked out pretty well, but came in rather weak at the end of the sip. All in all, still a tasty cup.
This is You :-D
