June Sipdown Challenge Prompt – a flavored green tea
My breakfast tea choices yesterday and today were based on the fact that we are eating outside and it is hot and often muggy, so I want lighter choices. This morning turned out to be rather pleasant and breezy since we ate early, which was a nice surprise.
Ashman used to dislike lemon in tea, and probably still would not want a squeeze of lemon. He doesn’t mind lemongrass in tea, though.
He drank this happily enough today. Happy is a good name for this tea, as the lemongrass just adds a sunny note to the tea. Oddly, I didn’t pick up the cucumber aroma this time but I was busy cooking and didn’t really take time to smell the leaves. This is a summertime tea for me because it is light and bright and sunny when the heat is oppressive and the humidity is suffocating. I expect we will be drinking a lot of it over the next few weeks.
