#tiffanys2021sipdown Tea #131 overall / Tea #2 for April
Thursday 4/01/21 — DT Toasted Walnut. Let’s be honest, this is not really fair. This is one of my all time favorite teas and I happened to find a tin with enough for one 20 oz hot & plain brew tumbler. I have to say it was still nice to have a cup amongst all the tea I sip to have a good friend when sometimes you are sipping down teas to get rid of them and have lost interest or tired of them.

Thursday 4/01/21 — Naturel Tea Chamomile Blend This was in my Amoda March 2021 box and lucky me I got two boxes this month (they resent in case people didn’t get them and I ended up getting both). There are 7 ingredients in this tisane blend, and I was hopeful cold brewing this whole packet in 20 oz of water 3/31 and drinking today with breakfast I’d have other things come out but to me it was just pure chamomile (sorry it’s so popular yet one of my least favorite ingredients aka bain of my existence). Unopened package will go into TTB or to a swap with a tea friend.

Wednesday 3/31/21 — DT Blueberry muffin hot and plain mini tin (single serving) before bed. Not bad for March but need to keep doing better… this tea is a favorite, I hope DT brings it back someday. I also need to checkout other companies to see if there is anyone else who can make a muffin tea (any kind of muffin) as I love muffins so very much. Anybody have any favorites or general recommendations??

Have you tried Simpson & Vail’s Blueberry Cinnamon Crumble? I would consider that closest I’ve had to a muffin tea.
Oooh, I have not really had any S&V teas..
https://www.svtea.com/Blueberry-Cinnamon-Crumble-Rooibos/productinfo/T1025/8/ - 8 oz for $13.70? :D Onto the wish list this goes even though I’m not normally a rooibos fan I’ll try this out. Thanks tea-sipper for the tip!

Wednesday 3/31/21 — DT Smores Chai DT silver tinzilla. Lost in March Sipdown Tea Madness. This tea was a favorite when it first came out years ago but not something I tend to reach for anymore so was very proud to get this tinzilla finished sipping the final latte to empty it out. I do have more of this tea in my stash, but I believe this is the only opened amount I have.

Wednesday 3/31/21 — DT Cardamom Macchiato (2 5g sample packets) .. love the “desperate” times at the end of the month. Made this with some foamy hot half&half (aka cream) as a hot latte for Micah this morning (if I’m home in the morning I always make him a cold or hot latte to start off his work remote day).

Tuesday 3/30/21 — DT Silken Puerh.. wasn’t a fan of this and I actually like puerh (not too experienced yet but I enjoy overall just not this one). Luckily only have one 2 oz foil bag. Made the last of it into the homemade kombucha. As always nice to find a home for these teas that I’d have trouble drinking otherwise.

Monday 3/29/21 — TeaSource Green Mango. Another IVTF (International Virtual Tea Festival) 2020 sample in my box of goodies. Shockingly making the 12g sample packet into a full DT perfect pitcher for cold-brew turned out light and refreshing (as I love about green teas :)) but also could taste the mango right along with the green tea. Finished the pitcher today. No offense Teavana/DT (I love both brands) but I’m learning that sometimes even a smaller amount of tea can still be powerful as hot or cold (plain or latte), it doesn’t have to be heaps of product to still be delicious. Not going to make the “keep around permanently” list but was so nice during the upswing of warm weather. (And the joy of spring in Ohio, USA—to keep up with tea/clothes/life with weather going up and down with such mood swings!)

Monday 3/29/21 — Bird and Blend Sticky Chai. I enjoy this tea plain, latte, stovetop but it lost in my March Tea Sipdown Madness a few weeks ago(?) Anyway, had 2 hot/plain lattes today to finish up this package which was best by a little over 2 years ago. I’d keep this in my cupboard / purchase this in the future if it’s around in a few years when my tea stash is under control / if I ever wanted a nice sticky chai. (this is not a full sip down, I definitely have more of this in my stash)
