Sipdown
October Sipdown Challenge Prompt – a tea you prefer plain
I drink almost all of my tea sans additions, so practically any tea would have done well for this prompt. I chose this one because it is not only a sipdown but it is so well liked that I already have two on the way – one for my house and one for a gift.
Superanna and her husband came to my house Friday evening. AliasHali had made cookies as a gift for Ashman and we all had tea and cookies together.
Ashman absolutely loved this tea with cookies and said it was a perfect pairing. That surprised me because I wouldn’t have considered the two complimentary. I made this because SuperAnna drinks mostly green or white tea and when offered a selection, chose this one.
Usually we finish one pot of tea and move on to a different tea. She requested more of this one! So I have ordered a tin for her and a refill bag for me.
Today I had the last teaspoon and a half of leaf made for breakfast. Even resteeping and combining this was so sweet! I think a ton of blackberry leaf must have settled to the bottom of the tin. Hopefully in the future I will remember to give the tin a little shake, but it was still good!

This one sounds so interesting! I wish the literary sampler included all of the blends ha ha.
I will be happy to send you some when it gets here! It smells like Smarties candy – the American kind. Superanna asked what the flavor was and I told her blackberry. She agreed with me that the cocoa nibs are not producing chocolate flavor, but I don’t mind because we all like it so much!
