It has been too freaking hot for hot tea this summer! The air conditioning doesn’t get to my office, where I spend about 10 hours a day, so I haven’t had much hot tea. Right now it is 82 degrees outside, and it is 79 in here. :( I always mean to drink more iced tea, but I … just don’t.
That said, I enjoy a nice peppermint tea in the evenings. I like the convenience of bagged tea for this, and I usually have a box of Twinings or Stash peppermint tea on hand. A friend gave me a tin of this, 30 bags, as a get well gift. It is nothing spectacular, but herbal peppermint tea isn’t, generally, spectacular. This has a nice light flavor that I enjoyed a lot. I look forward to drinking this over the fall and winter (which cannot come soon enough for me!)
Well, hello there! There’s room to move your desk into my office, which this time of year, hovers between “popsicle” and “restaurant-grade meat locker.” Peppermint works well in the summer, doesn’t it? Cools you down a little either way.
