I'm drowning in tea...
Well, after over a week (a week! 8 days!) of being stuck in bed drinking nothing but orange pekoe with honey, Neo Citron, and without energy to make anything fancy, today I finally managed to make it out the door to civilization — and to pick up the mail!
Happily, I had both a David’s Tea order (Boxing Day!) and my January Amoda Tea box waiting for me, so now I’m literally drowning in tea…
David’s Tea:
- Cocktails Collection
- The Perfect Mug
- Samples were all FAIL: coffee puerh, a chai one, and jumpy monkey. I hate coffee and chai so these will be going to someone who can appreciate them more!
Amoda Tea Box
- Pistachio Ice Cream green tea
- Oolong Creme
- Chiran Sencha
Bit intrigued by this… I’ve never favoured green teas but these actually sound interesting! I’m probably going to drink them iced/chilled instead of hot. I find it easier to drink unflavoured teas cold. idk. I’m weird.
Right now I’m drinking DT Goji Pop — one of the drinks in the cocktails collection — and I really quite like it! :D This coming from the girl who said she hated herbal tea, so far both the DT herbals I’ve tried I have loved!
Funny… I got those same exact samples! I also had a fairly similar reaction to yours :P
Man I wouldn’t’ve been happy with those samples either. My Boxing Day ones were Forever Nuts, Green Seduction and Chai Guarana. Two out of three isn’t bad I guess!
What is this Amoda box? I just looked at their site.. it sounds awesome! How much of each tea do you get?
I’d never heard of Amoda, but $15/month is a pretty awesome price for a subscription! (And free shipping in Canada too? :O )
The Amoda Tea boxes are pretty decent value, esp for those of us in canada. I signed up when i first heard about it, since there really isn’t much out there for us Canucks. If you’re looking for a decent value for money and a way to try teas from different companies, and perhaps teas you wouldn’t normally pick up they’re a good choice! Also, their customer service excellent!
I didn’t say I was drowning in tea, but I did tell my boyfriend the other day “I could make it rain tea if I didn’t think that weren’t such a waste of good tea.” The look on his face was priceless.
For those that don’t know what that means, its erm…well you know- when you’re in a gentleman’s club and make money fall from the sky on top of the entertainer. Not that I know anything about that of course. :)
I’d be happy to swap you for the the coffee Pu-Erh and Jumpy Monkey. I love the Coffee Pu and have never tried the Jumpy Monkey.
lol Jumpy Monkey was one of the samples with my order, I’ve yet to try it yet. Saving it for the next time I get up early.
