So this tea went down in the following way:
TTF posted about it this AM, so I made one cup made with a one minute steep time. Then I made two more cups (2 and 4 min steeps), and put them in a travel mug.
Then I promptly left the travel mug at home when I left to go hiking with Brian. We hiked and picked wineberries. We filled all of our containers and the shrubberies were still completely full. It was glorious! Here’s a small portion of our haul:

We saw some turks cap lillies:

and some beautiful streams:

When we finally arrived home, I reheated the two cups of tea. Normally I don’t like to do this, but I also hate wasting tea. Anyways, it’s still delicious. What an interesting tea! It’s very obviously sweet, and no additives are required. Perfect for a little pick me up before our friends arrive for Sunday TV night. It’s also a perfect compliment to the lovely thunderstorm currently raging through the city.

Nice pictures! That stream is gorgeous! And now I know what a wineberry looks like heh. Enjoy your Sunday TV night :)
Yeah, they pretty much look like shiny raspberries, but they have their own flavor. Thanks! I hope we don’t lose power!
Wine berries make some good jelly. 2 gallons in the freezer already. Our season is about over though.
I want wineberries.
Oh wow! 2 gallons!!! We got closer to 1 gallon. Gotta bring more containers next year!!!
Do you guys have those in TX, MzP?
I don’t think so. I’ve never heard of them before. But they are so pretty and luscious looking.
I guess they’re a northeast thing. Originally from China, though.
