BIG thank you to Azzrian for this sample!
Best served lukewarm!
This is the second time I made this, the first time drunk hot and oversteeped (3-4 min). It was terrible!
But… then I cut the steep time down and it got a little better. Added 1/4 tsp sugar and the burnt taste seemed to mellow out.
And then! as the cup cooled, it got really good!! ohmygoodness, the creamy custard really came out. Only a hint of strawberry but hey I don’t mind. This is fantastic!
SO glad I discovered the proper way to enjoy this delightful creation. I usually prefer my tea hot, so this is a surprise for me! walking upstairs with my tea, I was preparing to give this a ho hum rating. Lucky I checked my email first or I’d have alot of editing to do :)

BTW… for weeks the site has been bugged up, and I’ve been unable to view my notices. I’d click on them and nothing happened! then today, they are all gone. All 1600 of them… so if I’ve missed any comments, please forgive me! Ignorance is not bliss I tell ya :)

Azzrian

Sil

CHAroma, I’m really not sure how that happened. Probably why it got wiped out! lol
Thanks again Azzrian, you seriously rock :P
Sil, it really does!! though I love the blueberry danish tea any way it’s made. sooooo good!

Kittenna

Hahaha, I have 15229 notices. I stopped checking. I get them all emailed to me, and I keep the emails with comments that I need/want to respond to until I have time to respond.

CHAroma

Holy crap!!! That’s insanity!! And I thought I was a busy blogger with my average 20-50 notices, LOL!

On the subject of this tea, I also found that it needs a lower infusion time. I’ll try lower temp next time too. Thanks for the tip!

Kittenna, when someone comments on a post that isn’t mine, which I’ve liked, I don’t get those via email. Otherwise, I don’t mind them getting erased like that.
CHAroma, oh that took weeks, months actually, to get there! and it refreshed itself at one point to.
A tricky tea, but SO yummy :)
