So, I hope that I found the new scavenger hunt list? Item #6 is “A tea flavored like your favorite pancake/waffle topping” & so I think this tea should be the obvious choice, right? And happily enough, I just reblended a small batch of this tea – a very small batch this time, because I want to actually test using the maple syrup crystals that I get from the maple cotton candy – so I plan to use some of this as my test before I actually release it to the website . . . in the meantime, some of the small batch is now available on the website – in other words, Pancake Breakfast is once again available – but in very small quantities!
So, this isn’t actually a sipdown because this is a “D’s Tea” but despite the well-meaning intention of the idea of a sipdown, as the purveyor of this particular tea, I think it’s one that you should keep in stock because it’s that good.
Also, this restock just so happened to happen on National Pancake Day. It’s actually just a crazy coincidence because I don’t keep up with those days, mostly because I don’t have the time or the organization within my chaotical mind to keep track of stuff like that. Maybe someday I’ll be all organized and up with stuff to be able to do that. But today isn’t that day. (I’m actually incredibly impressed with myself that I was able to get the Irish Cream tea out a month before St. Patrick’s day because usually, I’m like a month behind with stuff like that.)
So, anyway – I’m having fun with the scavenger hunt, even though I’m not actually doing a sipdown all the time. Thanks to Mastress Alita for the scavenger hunt prompts. :)

Oh, I’ve been waiting for the new scavenger hunt! Haven’t been hugely active pursuing/reviewing them yet, but they are so much fun to read!
I put the new items up on the first post of the “2022 Sipdown Progress Thread” on the first of each new month. If I’m late feel free to poke me.
Also, the prompts do come from those “weird holidays” for each month, so the National Pancake Day and pancake/waffle topping was not a coincidence. Last year the prompts were timed to the specific days and that just felt way too stressful for me so this year it’s just a “try to drink these things any time during the month.” And they don’t have to be sipdowns. Mine often aren’t. (I consider every cup of tea “progress towards an eventual sipdown” :-)
I know it’s unintentional but the timing of this restock is extremely convenient for me. Wow. Thank you, National Pancake Day :)

LOL – but – with my D’s teas, any time I drink that tea, it leads to me blending more of that tea.

@CrowKettle – this was a really small batch – much smaller than usual – I will eventually reblend it again in the next couple of months, but this small batch was blended to hold us over while I’m playing around with the recipe a little bit. :)
