The Tea Thread

[blueerica]

SUN TEA BACTERIA??!!??!!?!?! Oh, how did I live that long?

That said, I'm a fan of "microbrewing" my tea - double strength over ice. The flavor has been quite good, and I get when I want about three minutes after I want it, and when I change my mind after my drink and go for an iced green or herbal... well, then, I get that too... goddamn it.

My neighbor gifted me with a box of TAZO Calm, which I just tried.

The ingredients are: chamomile, hibiscus flowers, spearmint, lemon grass, rose petals, blackberry leaves, safflowers, peppermint, sarsaparilla, lemon balm, licorice root.

Mostly it tasted like chamomile -- GD, you'd love it. My neighbor doesn't drink tea, and someone gave it to her. It was nice of her to think of me and pass the box along. I won't go out of my way to buy it in the future. I think it smells better than it tastes. I couldn't detect the licorice root at all, good thing. No likey.

I'm sorry, this is the tea thread. Please move discussion of boiled lawn clippings elsewhere.
