Adagio Teas

Hmmm, I’m almost out of this. Seems I drink it a lot

Needed a good ole flavored tea I could trust today. Nothing that I had to think too hard to enjoy since I am lacking brain activity today. I have decided in my next life I will not work with young human creatures for the sole reason that they seem to carry nasty germs around. And I always catch them. (As a side note, I do love my middle schoolers. I really do.)

So to comfort my poor immune system, I am consuming a large amount of strawberry tea and peanut butter cookies. The two of them actually compliment each other very well.

Got distracted helping a student and way oversteeped this. Nothing makes me more sad than bitter tea.

Trying to figure out why this came out bitter today. Used boiling water and steeped for 3 minutes like I always do. I’m thinking it has something to do with my cranky Monday mood.

Tried this at 3 minutes instead of 4 and I think I like it better that way!

Finally got more of this. A favorite flavored black tea. Brewing it for 4 minutes with boiling water turns out perfect for my tastes.

I am considering making this a staple in my tea cabinet,

A big mug of this to start my Monday morning. I’m not too keen on black teas but I can tolerate this one because of the strawberry flavoring. Now that I think of it, most of the black teas I do drink have some flavor to them. I taste the strawberry more in the aftertaste which is fine. I let it steep for 5 minutes when I normally do 4, so it is slightly stronger than I like.

Wonderful scent with a light and refreshing taste. Had myself a whole pot of it to relax with this evening before it is back to work in the morning.

This is one of those teas great to mix with many other teas. I also tried it with being mixed and it is wonderful. It is very forgiving when oversteeped. I accidentally steeped it over 7 minutes and it was still great. I love this to end the day.

One of my go to greens for everyday drinking. I tend to mix some peppermint or spearmint with it as well.

Always a fave of mine. Drank while watching Apocalypse Now!.

I drank this with two slices of lemon steeped in with the tea… bad idea… I figured I’d try it, but it just left me nauseous for a while after finishing the cup… oh well, there’s tons of other fun stuff I can throw in there anyways, so onward and upward.

Maybe it’s too strong, but this does not pair well with cantaloupe.

6:28pm – I need a nice burly cuppa to get over my day. Sadly my schooling left me very sleep deprived and I need a boost o’ caffeine.

Great as always. Just in a rush today so I hope I can drink it down without having to endure a good tongue scalding…

Always a fave of mine, I tried adding a spoonful of honey to my cup, which provided superb results.

This day started on a wrong foot but then burned some Incenses, made a cup of Sencha and it did not seem so bad anymore :)
Smooth and sweet Sencha is a comfort tea for me.

Today I have had perhaps 7-8 cups of Sencha and in fact I’m going to have some more!

Great as usual. Pondering if you know that you are drinking an expensive tea how does that impact the experience? Does it taste better? Hmmm …
