August Sipdown Prompt – Lazy Day: make an easy peasy tea
What could be more easy peasy than plopping a couple of sachets into a pot? And forgetting to set a timer?
I guesstimated time remaining and the tea turned out fine. I still have a lot of sachets in the tin, and I like this tea but I doubt I will repurchase. Ashman does not like rose in tea so this only gets attention when I am having tea alone.
Since I do like rose in tea, I have a lot of teas with rose and it gets overwhelming looking at needing to sip down that many by yourself. I have Harney Rose Scented, Czar Nikolas St. Valentine, Lupicia Yume, and probably more. I have finished two tins not long ago by making rose black tea ice cream, which Ashman and my neighbor love, so I will use up some of it that way probably.
This one is rose and caramel, and the rose is pretty forward. I don’t sweeten my tea much, but I bet sugar would bring out the caramel notes more.
Oooh, rose tea ice cream! That sounds amazing.
It was delish! I was copying a recipe from a little local-ish ice cream place. It had chopped pecans in it and was sprinkled with dried petals on top. Beautiful and tasty!
