another one from the past few days. I really like this one with a bit of honey and milk BUT i still stand by my hatred of the addition of goji berries. I pick them all out because i find they make the chai sweeter or something. Just not a fan.

Another tea from yesterday – i ended up spending some gaming time with the other half yesterday so i am behind! :) I really like whatever harvest this is that i picked up. i DO need to remember that i can generally pass on spring harvests as i just don’t love them as much as well. Great cup of delicious tea yesterday!

Stephanie

agreed about spring harvests…the exception for me is a few select fresh spring green teas.

mmmm i’ve had this one twice now – once regularly brewed and once as a latte and both times were delicious! I’m not sure if i like this one better or the other berry tea that omgsrsly also sent me from silk road i think it was? Overall this is just a great berry tea, that feels juicy, slightly sweet and really tasty! thanks for the share omg!

drank Serenity Now by Herbal Infusions Tea Co.

Another one that I’ve had a couple times now over e course of my time here in ottawa. I actually liked this one better than I thought I would, given my usual dislike of a lot of the herbal infusions blends. I think part of the reason this one went over better for me, was that it’s a herbal and doesn’t have that black base in it. The mint isn’t overpowering in this, and the fruit adds a nice sweetness to it. Not too shabby! Glad raritea, Kittenna and I got to share and try this one!

I feel like I should be. Keeping track of how fast I drink through my 100g of this one. I’m not even sure why I love it so much but I do, as a regular tea and in latte form so ha! There’s a reason I brought this to ottawa :)

I actually had this one before I left for ottawa to try and compare it to the rooibos version of this tea. Sadly now that I’ve been away from it for a while, I can’t recall much Beyond the fact that I did enjoy it! Lol this was another from bear with me :)

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
