Sipdown (1325)!
This ended up being another surprisingly flavourful and delicious tea from Kuda! Maybe I’ve just somehow managed to leave some of the best ones for last? That would be funny, if it turns out to be the case…
The strongest flavour is, despite the very purple looking tea liquor from all the blueberries in the mix, orange – and a nice and clear orange with a bit of natural sweetness to it. A bit of bitter pith as well, from the rind leaf on the outside of the citrus wheel, but not enough to outweigh the sweetness coming through. Plus, I actually like the texture that bitterness/astringency gives to the cup. Despite seeing the blueberry a lot in the steeped out liquor, I don’t taste it much – but they do add quite a striking visual!
I made this in the antique teacup that I purchased from Tea with Jann – a good IG tea friend, and also a Youtuber who is now selling tea themed stickers and curated antique teacup boxes! The box came with a locally made mini pot of honey, and I decided to add some of that into my teacup of tea as well – it complimented very nicely.
