So I technically had Shakespeare’s version of this tea thanks to Mastress Alita (thanks again!). But I love it so much I had to stock up and English Tea Store has the same blend. It’s on sale for the month at an already amazing price. I’m also happy to report that the tea still tastes the same! CUCUMBER. MELON. I’m always happy when different harvests are similar. So many cucumber slices, whoa! Also, 52Teas had a blend similar to this one (the general idea anyway) that I also love.
I’ve been eating a ton of actual cucumber from the garden lately, as I’m the only one around here that can tolerate cucumber…. and the garden will give about… FORTY or so cucumbers this year. So I made a cucumber dip today. And I’ll be making little tea sandwiches at some point. I also just like dunking some cucumber pieces in a dip of cream cheese, sour cream, and a bit of olive oil. Nothing too fancy. Also, one blueberry bush in the yard (spindly in my opinion) had about three pints of blueberries over the course of a month. I absolutely appreciate that blueberries don’t all turn blue at once… it’s gradual so you can enjoy blueberries for about a month even with one plant, if you’re willing to look every 2-3 days.
Flavors: Cucumber, Melon

I love cucumber sandwiches! We do it one way with mayo, salt, and pepper, and a second way with cream cheese and dill!
Well, it should taste the same, Shakespeare’s sources it from English Tea Store. :-P Few tea shops make their own blends vs. outsourcing.
Sounds really good, tea-sipper. I love cucumbers with vinegar, salt, and pepper. I’m also a huge an of tzatziki dressing.
Mastress Alita – I knew it was the same source, thanks to you telling me that before, but I’m always worried with harvests possibly changing over the years. So I was just glad I didn’t seem to find a difference. :D
AJRimmer & Kawaii – I’m starving now, I got to go find something to eat (already had some cucumbers today) haha
haha derk. I don’t LOVE cucumbers… they were supposed to be for my bro but he can’t eat 40 of them. Yikes. I guess I have a newfound love for them now? And many of my fam are allergic to them so I kind of thought I would be too. I guess not! Well, some are now on a table next to the road for anyone to take. :D
