TEA MAIL from ashmanra, thank you for sharing a few cups with me again :)

Okay, another exam passed. I was exhausted. And cold, as it was raining all the time I was going home from the train station. Felt asleep watching a ice hockey match in early afternoon!

So, decided to brew this one. It sounded very fiery and I wasn’t that sure about it at all, ginger and Mate; Fire in name, I was afraid this tea isn’t for me.

Well, it has got indeed interesting taste. I had Yerba Maté several times, but never cared if roasted or not, or how it should taste like and those things.

Today cuppa woke me up sucessfully. And it was somehow mineral, quite spicy (fiery, from ginger I guess) but it wasn’t excessively. A wee hint of cinnamon.

Wouldn’t call it Chai honestly. It was a ginger drink with yerba maté. That’s it.

Flavors: Ginger, Mineral

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 4 min, 0 sec 10 OZ / 300 ML
White Antlers

Congratulations on ANOTHER exam passed! : )

I like mate for its effects rather than its flavor. This might work pretty well for me.

White Antlers… only two more! On Friday and next Thursday.

gmathis: I see, it certianly woke me up. And more than I would expect :) Too bad it’s quite simple in flavour though :(

A passed exam and an afternoon nap in the rain sounds like an almost perfect day! So happy for you! Step by step you are getting closer to your goal!

ashmanra: If only I don’t have next exam tomorrow! I wanted to prepare; but I am not even able to be that productive today (an yesterday). So, it was part-perfect :) Sometimes it’s just a bit more than I can. But of course, super happy that only two are remaining.
mrmopar: Thank you! Small steps, but it’s something :)
