July Sipdown Prompt – International Friendship Day: tea with a friend

I bought this tea for my friend of 37 years though it is kept at my house. It is very difficult for us to get together except during summer break as she is an EC teacher with an adult special needs child living at home and she is starting an online consulting site for parents of EC children so she is very busy. I figured that if we could manage one tea time together per week we would finish this by summer’s end, and we are on schedule for that!

This is white tea with apricot, lavender, vanilla, lemon, and honey flavor if I remember correctly, but all I taste is mild apricot. I don’t resteep this one. But we do like it a lot and I would consider repurchasing if they made it available as loose leaf.

It has been a lovely tea to look forward to this summer and I will probably always associate it with this summer’s visits. Next time I drink this I will be logging a sipdown!

Friendships that can withstand those long pauses are priceless.

It is a blessing to have those folks who love you and yours, warts and all. And some of those folks are right here on Steepster!

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fifteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
