Sorry for the spam of reviews.
I drank a lot of tea this weekend but weekends are bad for logging, too much going on.
I saved the best for last though!
This was my Saturday morning tea. I got up and knew that we had plans to go see a movie at 2, so I figured I had plenty of time to properly enjoy this tea.
There are two types of tea for me, the ones that are special and deserving of my time and attention, and possibly multiple resteeps…and the ones that I pretty much guzzle all day long. I can go through a cup really quick once it’s cooled down to an acceptable level.
Anyway, Golden Orchid falls into the first category. I haven’t been drinking these delicious favorites lately because I’ve been trying to sipdown my silly amount of samples.
SO – knowing that I had lots of time to properly devote to it, I made a cup of Golden Orchid. I even bought a jug of spring water just to use for my “special teas”. So I used it.
I’m sniffing the bag, just taking my time. Then inhaling my delicious tea, waiting for it to cool off so I wouldn’t burn my mouth (done that before, too often)….
Then my husband was all like “let’s go out for breakfast at Homestead (local place) before the movie! How fast can you get ready? We will have to leave in an hour tops”
Which doesn’t sound too bad, but it meant I had to chug my tea down while I got the baby ready to go and got myself ready.
Hardly the experience I had been hoping for.
Though, it was still delicious.
It’s almost good that I’ve been drinking an abundance of mediocre samples lately, makes me really appreciate teas like this!

Mmmmm I just ordered this one after trying a sample and I can’t wait to taste it again. :D
This is a total special occasion tea for me too even though I want to drink it constantly! SO GOOD
To all Golden Orchid lovers, I strongly suggest trying this:

Note that I did not have elderberries handy, so I used frozen blueberries and it tasted awesome!! Can’t wait to get some elderberries though and try it the right way :-)
Are elderberries a Canadian thing? I have never seen them for sale here in the US in my life.
