Noooo! I’m out! But that’s ok, because I have more on the way.

This really is a perfect winter tea. Just a bit of sugar really brings out the maple flavor. I’m making a new note because I managed to overbrew the last of this. The timer went off and I just completely forgot to actually take the brew basket out. The risks of brewing when you’re trying to do eight other things and make it out the door in time. Anyway, the point is that this ended up steeping for about 8-10 minutes. Don’t let that happen. It ends badly. The result was very bitter. I would have poured it out except I needed the caffeine pretty badly and I was already out the door. So. Lesson learned.

Yay for more Maple Pecan on the way! Chronic over-steeper here. If that happens again, just pour a little tea out and add some more hot water and just keep doing that until it tastes like it should. As long as the correct temperature was used, you should be able to get it very close to how you prefer it. :)
