I’ve been hoarding a 50g bag for awhile now. I really enjoy this tea. Very simple, but so delightful. I tend to gravitate towards simple black tea+vanilla or caramel.They’re my favorite to drink in the morning with honey and oat milk. Because this was limited edition, I’ve been savoring it. But, I was happy to see that it was being restocked in limited quantities. It was going to be released at 8am UK time (which equates to midnight my time), but I knew it would sell out quickly, so I was ready to buy it right at release time. I actually went to a KISS concert the night it was released, but still managed to remember to try to grab some when I got home. Lo and behold, it sold out in 10 minutes. I missed it. I was very sad. I woke up at 3:30am and couldn’t get back to sleep, so started browsing Instagram and B&B had posted that it was restocked. Glory be. I got 3 50g bags, the new Spring teas, and a couple miscellaneous teas I’d been wanting to try (I’m supposed to be on a tea ban).

Anyway, because I was able to score some more, I made a nice big cup of Butter Brew this morning. Glorious. The smell is absolutely divine. Rich caramel and brown sugar. I’ve made the recipe on the B&B website before (cream soda, oat milk, and Butter Brew) and it’s very good, I need to make it again. I will say, I’m a Universal pass holder and get Butterbeer from the park quite often, this doesn’t really taste anything like it, but it’s something special in itself.

Wait a second, I thought this had won the Tea Elections at one point to get a “permanent” spot at one point? Over tea-sippers Jelly + Ice Cream, I remember how mad she was about that…

The Tea Elections is like, the one time a year their “rotational” teas become permanent, if that isn’t even the case anymore… I call foul, B&B… >_>

tea-sipper

haha, yeah, that’s what I was wondering! I thought Butter Brew would be stocked all the time. Now I don’t feel so bad about Jelly & Ice cream.

tea-sipper

Oh crap, I just realized I’m drinking Jelly + Ice Cream now. haha

I’m not sure what happened there! Maybe they were trying to drum up some hype (if that’s the case…it worked).

Ya, but it pretty much makes the whole point of the Tea Elections pointless…
