Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Somehow I don’t think I have any Irish teas? How is that possible… so the last couple days I’ve been majorly soaking the kettle and infusers - meaning microwave tea. Time to get to a few aging teabags. This was from a teabox ages ago, the packaging is just too cute… maybe I didn’t want to drink it because the wrapping was too nice. Now this isn’t a fair review, because I know I’ve had this for ages (also, microwave tea) but I was tasting hardly any cinnamon, maybe only a hint of tartness from “plum”. Somehow if I had to guess, I would have thought this was a mildly vanilla black tea. It was a decent cup. Now the tea kettle is clean and I’ve already brewed up some FRANKENBERRY. Also from another teabox…

Ooh, Frankenberry. I chanced on that into my recent 52teas bin foray, but didn’t pull it out. That will be April’s task, haha.
For whatever reason, I didn’t even think about drinking Irish teas. This in spite of having pulled out one a few days ago, by chance. Maybe I’ll pick that one to brew up if I make more tea tonight, which is not likely, it’s almost 1am.

Frankenberry is old but still delicious! I forgot how I once would steep the older 52Teas at one minute for the first steep… somehow one minute results in much more flavor than I’d expect. I should remember this for more of my flavored teas.
