My internal clock must be set to “eggnog;” looks like the last time I drank and reviewed this was last year’s Tea and Cocoa Sunday with my church kids. This year’s was today, too. I love to watch my fifth grade girls prowl through my mismatched chest of tea bags and my sixth grade boys winching up their faces after their first sip of lapsang souchong. (I’ve always got a kettle in my hands and never have the camera handy, but it’s priceless!)
I’ve been drinking this seasonally for years. The black/green combo makes it just a little finicky (light touch needed on time and temp). Without a little help from milk, there isn’t much to resemble the dairy part of the eggnog, but the spice combo is spot on. Fortifying myself with feet up and cuppa before Kid Day Part 2—we’re taking a group to Ronald McDonald House to make dinner and decorate cookies for the families staying there. Wanna come?
