This tea has been renamed “Mother’s Day.” I am not sure if a new entry should be made or if the name on this one should be changed. It is the very same tea, just new name and packaging.

PSA – Harney sachets are intended for twelve ounce mugs. They usually resteep well, so each sachet could yield 24 ounces of beverage.

My birthday is coming, which is why Superanna brought me tea yesterday and my long time friend brought me this one today. I haven’t had this tea in ages, and it is even better than I remembered.

Chamomile tastes like chamomile and is very assertive in the cup to me. This blend is downright beautiful with its abundance of flower petals and it smells so good – fresh, happy orange. Did you know orange is one of the scents most recommended for boosting one’s mood?

It steeped first to such a blue color that I thought there must be butterfly pea flower in it, but there is none. The longer the bag sat in the mug, the more pink came out and mixed in so that it ended up looking very nearly like a cup of weak black tea, just rosier.

The orange runs nicely alongside the chamomile, not outdistancing it but definitely keeping up. I welcome this soother for bedtime tonight.

Typically when just a name changes, I change the name of the entry to “[current name] (formerly [past name])” so both come up in the results.

Good to know – thank you!

I was going to suggest similar, like what Roswell Strange has done for some DavidsTeas.

It keeps it really transparent and prevents people (hopefully) from re-entering the tea with the original name!

I very much liked your way of talking about chamomile : that “…is very assertive in the cup to me” is exactly what I feel but I never managed to say that well ;-)

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fourteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
