On the 4th Day of Christmas – I’m running a bit behind on all my posts yesterday/today because yesterday was our ‘Thanksmas’ – which is the holiday we’ve created to combine Thanksgiving and Christmas since Amethyst is grown with a family of her own – I wanted a day when everybody could get together and celebrate the season. We take a look at everyone’s calendar and determine what day would work best for everyone’s schedule and that day ended up being yesterday. So yesterday was the day we have the turkey feast and open presents. Yay!
So today’s tea – the 4th tea of the countdown – was one that won quite an extraordinary number of votes: Coconut Flan Genmaicha! Yum! I was happy to reblend this because it was one of my favorites from this past year.
Creamy and decadent with lots of coconut. I’ve never actually had a coconut flan before – but this is what I’d imagine coconut flan would taste a lot like. Sweet and the toasted rice melds beautifully with the custard-y flan notes. Really yummy!
Thanksmas. That says it perfectly.
