Yummy!!!
Now that some magician has handed me some dried elderberries, I was able to make the real version of this Northern Sweet Tea. Though my own temporary blueberry version was pretty darn delicious, I admit that it’s fun to have it the way it was meant to be.
It was hot today. This was the perfect iced tea.
Really, A little maple syrup added to Golden Orchid and some cute rustic tiny little berries….how could you not like this?
I drank two big mason jars today, and wanted more!! And the good thing is, I can make more, which makes me a very happy fairy :-)

I do need to try this!
It’s fab.
I have some in the fridge!
Lol, I’m having GO right now AND I’m having some NST. A sip of hot, a sip of cold!
I’m having some GO after I finish this delicious cup of Yi Fu Chun. I’m saving my NST for later in the day out on the porch. I LOVE the combo though. May have to try that.
I am making this today. I know I said that a few days ago, but this week was nuts. After my hike, I am coming home, and I am making this. Since HoneyBelle sent me elderberries, I am ready to rumble!
Make it before you go on your hike and put it in the fridge so it’s cold when you get back – it will be PERFECT after your hike!
Yes, ma’am! Making tea NOW! :p
Oh! Hike and NST = Perfect Sunday
I can’t wait to hear what you think of it
Indeed, TTF! I am looking forward to both. I’m making a double-batch of the NST. I’ll maybe share some with the boyfriend. :p
Double batch is a good idea with this. I make it a quart at a time. I may go sneak a little drink of it now
I made a quart this morning :) Mmmmhm! :D
I tripled the batch. What the heck! You guys haven’t led me astray yet. I know I’ll love this!
Oh yes you will. And so will the boyf.
IF I share. :p
He didn’t appreciate the pu’erh I am drinking, but I’m certain he will like the NST.
Which one are you having?
Mandala’s Heart of the Old Tree Sheng Pu’er 2012. Please check out my note if you get a chance. I actually read your note before I made it, since I was looking for brewing times. I thought it was interesting that you found peach, because to me, it smelled exactly like dried apricot!!!
That settles it – I’m ordering that now.
MzPriss, I was just gonna offer you to send you some, but I don’t think a sample would be enough :-)
I did check your review Sarsonator, awesome!
I’m just gonna order it.
It sounds sooooooo good!
I hope I someday end up in the tea retirement home with you two. Remember it from this thread? http://steepster.com/discuss/2404-stash-slash-cupboard-pictures?page=10&post_id=135229
Also, does this mean that I am now a tea enabler, MzPriss?? :p
Yes, you have totally earned enabler status. We will have to all be there together and all chip to pay a Tea Dobby to make us amazing, perfectly-prepared tea all day long.
Haha! Yes, I remember it!! And you have now officially entered the TTEG. (The tea enablers guild)
Awesome!!!! I will wear my TTEG badge proudly, and look forward to the day that we sit around all day, chatting and drinking perfectly-prepared tea! :)
And I so want a tea-dobby…
NEED a TeaDobby. It’s a NEED.
Haha! Definitely a NEED.
