I will also be following along with whatever pops up on the Bird & Blend advent from my own stash, if I happen to have it in the cupboard. Even if I didn’t buy a B&B advent this year, I’m in love with their virtual advent — couldn’t be cuter. (Everyone can follow along with the virtual advent just as long as you have a B&B log in.) I’m skipping Tea #1, Gingerbread Chai this year because I have only a few precious teaspoons remaining. I wonder if B&B will ever offer free shipping to America again? I know why they can’t at the moment, but I wonder if it will be Never Again? There are a few staples I wouldn’t mind ordering this year.
THIS tea was thankfully shared by Cameron B a while ago. I loved trying this blend, but I don’t think it’s a staple. However, whenever I steep it up, I forget how much I like it, so who knows. If I was a Brit I think I’d know how much this tastes like the actual cookie…
Holiday tea 2022 #4 (because it’s in the advent)

Good idea! Two of my passions collided today as somebody I follow from the theatre world shared that she’d been sent their advent calendar and is opening it on Instagram every day. It’s really making me wish I had one!
I don’t remember this having bee pollen, did they change the recipe?
Last time I had it, I was shocked how much it tasted like a chocolate-frosted McVities digestive biscuit.
OH the blend appeared it had bee pollen in it, but checking the ingredients it must be fenugreek. I will edit my note to take out the bee pollen! Also, it’s good to know the flavor of the tea is accurate to someone who has actually tried the biscuits. :D

I agree with Mastress Alita, it was very similar to McVities digestive biscuit! I am little sad I ran out of this and ordering from UK is a small nightmare for me right now.
