Happy New Year All! Hope everyone had a lovely holiday. I actually took a step back away from my computer to enjoy some solid R & R to get myself back on track.

My Friday Afternoon Black Friday order arrived yesterday and I was a bit giddy. First tea I grabbed to steep up was my sample of I’m No Prize- black tea with ginger, jasmine, cardamom and cinnamon flavoring.

I wasn’t sure about the jasmine and ginger combo but this tea was really good and I ended up enjoying a few (large) tea pots full. You could literally taste each and every ingredient in the blend and no one ingredient stole the spotlight from the other. The black tea flavor was probably the least apparent but still you could pick up a malty touch here and there. Really well balanced and one that I would happily pick up in larger quantities once the poor post office has a chance to catch their breath after the holidays and I’ve sipped down a few goodies.

First Sipdown of 2021 :)

Flavors: Cardamom, Cinnamon, Ginger, Jasmine, Rose

Woo, that sounds interesting. Putting to wishlist; we will see later if they even deliver outside US. They certainly have a few interesting blends :)

I’m back and hopefully for good! After a bit of a hiatus, I want to get back in the habit of logging my tea journey for various reasons.

I never know how to start these things. I’m a 40ish tea loving gal who enjoys tea parties, horror movies and polka dots/plaid. I have an amazing supportive husband who has allowed our house to be over run by tea in more ways than one. We have four kiddos between us along with our two furbabies that we love as much as they drive us nuts. Our family truly is our world.

Now on to the tea: I love all kinds. I’m not a huge fan of red rooibos- truly is my arch enemy but I love green rooibos. Beyond that, I’ll try everything once or twice to make sure I didn’t bumble up the steepings. Recently got into puerh and enjoying the adventure. If you are interested in something from me, just holler at me. I’m always up for trying new tea blends or sharing with others!

I’ve also started blending up my own teas at http://www.cuppageekteas.com/ I try to make fun unique blends to brighten someones day with.

I am also the admin behind SororiTea Sisters. If you are interested in reviewing teas for us, let me know!. We are always looking for guest reviewers or contributors: http://sororiteasisters.com/.
