This marshmallow leaf is very, very old. YEEEEAAARRRRSSSS old…
I’ve also never made it before now – so why do I have it still!? Well, to the surprise of none of my tea friends, am a bit of a hoarder of tea. I’ve never tossed it out, despite it being about three or four years old and never once having it, because “Someday I might crave it”. Such poor logic, I know.
Well… WELL!! Let me tell you!
Earlier this week; I was craving it! I thought to myself “Man, I want something light, herbaceous but not super savory or bitter, and caffeine free… I wonder if I have any tea that fits that!?” And low and motherfucking behold! It was the marshmallow leaf’s time to shine! Sure, it tasted pretty flat/stale – but it was soft and warm and worked for what I was in the mood for!
Who wants to take bets on how long it’ll take me to be in the mood to drink it again!?
Hahahahahahahaha.
