I wanted a special tea to cheer me up after I aborted my long run due to the major tummy troubles all week. My first thought was Butiki’s Potato Pancake and Applesauce, but I had that in my room in the attic and I didn’t feel like dragging my butt up there to get it, so I sifted through my Verdant teas and settled on this one.

I steeped it this time with twice as much leaf for about 3-4 minutes. I added just the teensiest tuvh of raw alfalfa honey. I loved this tea so much this way! It’s like dessert! Sweet, bready, full of spices, and just downright delicious!

Oooh, that does sound good! I usually drink this one straight up, & I love it that way, but maybe just once, for a little extra treat… ;)

I like my teas straight most of the time, but the little bit of honey made a wonderful difference!

And I really need to stop typing things on my phone… “tuvh of raw alfalfa honey”? I’m surprised anyone could read that. lol.

maybe i’ll try that with the sample i picked up from verdant. I don’t love this tea enough to keep it in my cupboard so i just pickup the sample sizes now and then heh

Well this tea appeals to my I-love-starchy-potato-type-flavors side!

I run, I sing, I drink tea. That’s the best description I have of me.

I’ve always enjoyed tea, but have just started trying out a lot more loose teas and varied brands. I’m really excited about a site like steepster so I can read about what people think about different teas.

Oh and I really hate Lipton tea. There’s something just awful about it and I can’t understand why nearly every local diner only has Lipton.

Also I’m on the search for a full-bodied, fruity blackberry tea. So if you have any suggestions feel free to throw them my way! :-)
