Peppermint

I need something calming after encountering all these bugs since the latest Steepster update. It was annoying enough that the site went down for most of Sunday (one of my most active days on this site), but now the site is not fully recognizing that I’m logged in, I’m having a lot of trouble posting and rating new tasting notes, I can’t like notes when viewing a tea company’s page, notes are sorting oddly on tea pages, it’s not sorting my cupboard correctly or displaying all the teas I have, AND I have to try several times to add or remove a tea from my cupboard before it finally takes! When will the madness end?!

I have so many teas that I really rely on the virtual cupboard. This cupboard bug makes prioritizing and tracking my sipdowns that much more exasperating. Ugh. Luckily, I knew this was my last Bigelow sample, so now I can pick up right where I left off yesterday! Inhaling the brewed tea aroma is calming me down already. It’s soothing and comforting in the way only tea can be. I need more of this stuff! And PRONTO!

a local delicious lunch/dinner spot for cheap fried food and huge fresh salads and wonderful vegan burritos is a place i go to WAY TO OFTEN. they have a dozen amazing craft beers always on tap, but only bigelow tea.
yet every time i have this tea, i end up thinking ‘this is refreshing!’
‘i should drink more mint!’
so it’s nothing special, but i always like it.
it went great with the slice vegan mexican chocolate cake.

Smells lovely when you open the package. I believe I didn’t steep it long enough or I steeped it too much. At this rate I’m not really sure haha. Not bad but I expected a stronger kick of peppermint.

Good digestif. Peppermint is lovely for dealing with dietary excess. I need to buy a few peppermint plants, so I can make it really fresh. Until that time, this will do. Adequate peppermint flavor, though ideally there would be more of a minty wallop.

I love ripping open the little individually wrappted packages and getting hit in the face with the delicoius sweet smell of peppermint. I’ve used this tea as a base for drinking chocolate, which was fantastic. I’ve also combined it with gunpowder green for an improvised Moroccan mint.

Had this while out for lunch today. A good, strong peppermint flavour. I liked it.

A cup of peppermint as the clocks move closer to 2020.

This will be remembered as the taste of crushing loneliness. Like soap in the mouth.

Suck it, time.

okay, just okay, there are many more mint teas that taste better.

This is a simple/complex tea. It is a very strong peppermint, but it does taste a little artificial. It is a good choice, though if you don’t have many options for a sweet tea.

I decided to try it to get myself all in the winter/ holiday spirit. I will admit, my other peppermint tea by covet garden may be pushed aside for a bit. It’s really “cool” , but delicious. I had it with oolong tea mixed together, but nonetheless it is amazing.
