Advent Calendar Day 4. This is called Serenity Now, and boy, do I need some serenity! MY upstairs neighbors have a son who is autistic. He is prone to rages and about 4 or 5 times a week he jumps and stamps so hard that my pictures rattle on the wall. Literally. One small picture fell off the top shelf of my desk and smashed against the corner of the coffee table. I have complained to the landlord, and they replaced the carpet. Nice, but not terribly effective. They say they can’t do anything aobut it.
Anyway, on to the tea. This has hibiscus which is normally a complete turn off for me, but it’s not horrible here. There is a hint of tang, but also some sweetness here. The color is quite rich and dark, and the flavor is decent. I won’t add this to an order. I don’t like it that well. But I can drink another cup or two to finish off the little jar.
I’m really glad to have a chance to try so many different kinds of tea that I normally would never order. And it gives me something to look forward to.
ETA: As it cools, the hibiscus becomes much more prominent. Definitely not a cold brew for me.
