Description
Tea of the Week for October 31, 2022!
This is a tea idea that’s been in the back of my brain for a while now & I’m so glad to finally be sipping it now!
organic ingredients: green tea, toasted/popped rice, toasted coconut, marshmallow root & natural flavors
more about this tea: as I mentioned above, this is a tea idea that I’ve had for a while now, but sometimes, life doesn’t let you just get into the tea studio to create – I have to do things on a schedule – otherwise I’d have a lot of teas – but no room to store them!
So, this tea is finally here. Sweet, toasted coconut – a favorite snack of mine – makes a perfect addition to our original Marshmallow Treat Genmaicha. It adds just a little more creaminess & sweetness to it. I didn’t go too heavily on the coconut because I knew that it could take over & you wouldn’t taste much else – so there’s just enough coconut flavor to let you know that there’s a little something more than just marshmallow & toasted rice.
This is so good!
to brew: shake the pouch to ensure that the ingredients are well-incorporated. Measure out 3g of leaf to 12oz of very hot water (175°F) & allow to steep for 2 minutes. Strain & allow to cool for at least 5 minutes..
serving suggestion: while I have enjoyed this both as a hot or an iced drink, I think I prefer it warm. If you allow it to cool for about 10 minutes – so that it’s pleasantly warm – not cold, not too hot – the flavors reach the “pop” point. So tasty!
Our original, customer favorite Marshmallow Treat Genmaicha combined with lots of toasted coconut! It’s a sweet treat that is oh-so-cozy & comforting! YUM!
