Fri 5/7 188/12 naked teas galore lemon meringue tulsi. I have a lot of this tea from Amoda, was in a sub box and then ended up buying a bunch. It’s definitely unique (maybe from tulsi?). first day at my new job and I sipped this hot and plain (silver metal basket in my trusty 20 DT dark blue tumbler steeped boiling water for at least an hour). It was a nice soothing cuppa for the afternoon.

Friday 5/7 — Dessert by Deb Lady Grey’s Garden nice size sample packet, 20g(?) enough for a cold brew pitcher. I have an order coming soon (from Jan 2021 winter brunch collection) with my March/April sub box, I have just placed 5/10 an order for her new collection (and another one pending waiting for the next weekly offers/deals newsletter), and figure I better get working on the 324283903248 teas I have from her in almost 2 years of DbyD. Not my cuppa, definitely a floral earl grey black tea.

Thursday 5/6 — Lauku Tea Brigita’s Daylight Blend. Sipsby box. Cold brew glass jar. Uh, it’s Thursday? WTF happened to Weds? Oh! I know! I had work, then I had an impromptu casual sit down/interview/job offer, then I came home to tell my boyfriend (who I live with) & my parents (phone call) about job opportunity, then my Columbus Crew were outplayed by Monterrey in CCL play to be eliminated losing down in MX 3-0. I sipped on tea, but nothing was finished 5/5 (I guess a store kombucha GTS Lavender Love). Anyway, I sipped this this morning after it has been brewing in my fridge for a few days. Very herby herbal. Was cold and got the job done this morning with breakfast.

Tuesday 5/4 — Davidson’s Organics Rooibos Spiced Chai 2 tea bags. Another tea hot & plain at work during the end of the shift. Thanks Sipsby (from a box a long time ago, probably a few years?).

Tuesday 5/4 — Friday Afternoon Tea Maple Hojicha. I love love this one! This is a hojicha tea + natural maple flavoring – simple but delicious. Had two sample packets from an old Sipsby box (I thought I had already drank those because that’s what introduced me to Friday & her tea company!) & cold brewed and YES. I am pretty sure I have bigger bags of this is my Friday Tea stash from all the orders I made last/this year online + in person last Sept when in Seattle. Will have to keep this around permanently, also try hot and cold/hot latte. :D

Boo, a maple houjicha I enjoyed is no longer carried by the teashop I got it, and I’ve been looking for a replacement. But I don’t see this one on Friday Afternoon’s site anymore. :-(

Looks like it’s available September through December:

#tiffanys2021sipdown Tea #183 overall / Tea #7 for May
Tuesday 5/4 —Miracle Tree Moringa Mango 2 teabags. Last of the 4 I had from an old Sipsby box.

Last/this/next week my schedule at work isn’t too bad, I have a couple new coworkers (2 ladies) at my main hotel who I’m enjoying, soccer season is starting up (#columbustilidie GO CREW! (:), get to see my immediate family for first family gathering since March 2021 later in the month, life is good.. just need to get my 3-4 trips minimum in (getting that travel bug itch), more if possible… and then I seriously do it to myself and work a double shift 5/4 (7-2 and 3-11) 5/4 which is fine because 5/5 was an off day.. and then working 7-3 as well 5/5. Oof. I guess I’ll nap in the afternoon of May 5th?

Anywho – TL;DR LIFE IS FULL BUT GOOD and I brewed this hot & plain (2 teabags) in my trusty DT navy blue tumbler and had in evening shift at my regular hotel.

Tasting Note #184 overall / Not a sipdown note #2
An Ode to Tea, R is for Rose all Day by DavidsTea (gifted by Tori aka @siply_tealicious) 15/23
Monday 5/3 — DavidsTea Rose all Day. Finished cold-brew pitcher #1. Tori gave me enough for probably 3 full size (64 oz) cold brew pitchers. Not a wine/alcohol drinker but this is pleasant enough to enjoy the pitchers I make of this.

drank Hard Candy by DAVIDsTEA

#tiffanys2021sipdown Tea #182 overall / Tea #6 for May
Monday 5/3 — DT Hard Candy. This is a tiny tin, well, enough with 2-3 PS inside – cold brew in glass jar. This tea is super old but never had it fresh, I love the slight sour cherry taste to the overall muddy fruity taste. Would love for them to bring this back and would definitely stock up and buy a bunch fresh (at least 10 oz if not more)!

drank Strawberry Colada by DAVIDsTEA

#drinkwhatyouown February 1?/25
Monday 5/3 — DT Strawberry Colada. This is a tiny tin, well, enough with 2-3 PS inside – cold brew in glass jar. Made two cold lattes (3/4 tea, 1/4 cream) for Micah the evening of 5/2 so he could drink 5/3 while I was at work. The tea I have left is older, but I’d be interested if DT or another company would do another strawberry coconut tea.
