Sipdown!
Although I have had quite a few sample sipdowns this year, this is my first official sipdown. Maybe, just maybe, if I don’t buy any tea myself, I will reach my goal of 65 teas in my cupboard this year. I am thrilled that all of my oldest teas that were past or near their “best by” dates are gone.
This was my first Teeccino, I think, and it was sent by gmathis. My little grandsons love it as well as several other flavors. My DIL had tried the reverse psychology thing of giving one of them a sip of coffee because they would clutch at her travel mug so and it backfired. They loved coffee and once stole a WHOLE fresh travel mug, downed it, cried for more, and spent the next few hours running in caffeine crazed circles while also crying that they were not being given more coffee. This was when my son reached out in desperation and asked me to please order the coffee flavored drink I had brought for them to sample.
I am definitely not a coffee lover but I really, really, like this. I think Mocha is my favorite with Vanilla Nut and Hazelnut tied for a close second. Thankfully I have a pouch and a half of Mocha left.
Comments
AJRimmer: it definitely got me hooked and I pretty much immediately bought about four different flavors after trying that one sample.
Kelmishka: coffee was treated like a class two drug in my parent’s house. The kids were NEVER allowed to have it. Imagine the excitement when “Aint” Neal let me and my brother slip behind the serving table at church homecoming day and make a cup of coffee. We added about four tablespoons of sugar and it was half milk. That forbidden fruit was so sweet – literally! And we really didn’t like it, we just wanted it because it was so exciting! I bet we drank two sips before throwing the cup away!
Aint Neal sounds like a doozer! I spent a fair amount of time over break trying to whip the tins and packets into submission and am trying to stick to a “no more tea than you have space” paradigm (ha)! But y’all are making me want to go buy a box, especially since we’re anticipating a very snowy week.
I had a cup of this the other day that tasted like caramel corn. It was so good!
Ha, the coffee-loving kids! How funny.
