I was so chilly before class tonight that I ran into the Starbucks on campus to get an Earl Grey tea. I really enjoy this Earl because it’s so lavender-y! It always surprises me that something so unusual can be bought at such an ubiquitous place. I think it’s absolutely delicious – the loose leaf is a great improvement over the former bags – and my best treat at school! I was going to buy a tin, but I said nah – let it be my special thing to get out and about before lecture.
Steep time and water temp unknown, but I will say the walk from the campus center where the Starbucks is to my building for class brews an excellent cup of tea! Throw out the bag before I sit and I’m golden!
The lavender-y part intrigues me. I may have to try it.
