Midnight Blue, Ohio Tea Co

 

I was a fan of this new tea, but sadly my family was not.  Crazy enough this was my FIRST ever pot of tea I have ever made!!!!  Can you believe it?  I usually do individual tea cups.  But, I felt like an adult making an entire pot- lol

measured out the loose leaf tea to put the ball in the tea pot

 

Ingredients:

Lavender, cornflowers, mallow blossom, rose petals, lemongrass, and a hint of lemon and mango flavor

 

First pot of tea!!!!

Heartland, chai latte

 Loving the gift cards!!!!!  FREE IS ALWAYS GOOD!

 

I got gift cards from my mom and dad in my Christmas stockings.  I got a chai latte from Heartland Point.  It is unfortunately the only drive thru place in Orrville to get a chai.  Heartland Points teas are sub par. Orrville is in need of a place to get good tea.  But, in a pinch when I get a breakfast sandwich I get a chai too.

Purple tea things

all good things come in purple!

I'd love to vacation here and work on my sixth book...

Even the Queen loves her purple-and we know she loves her tea

Smith, Fez

Spring harvested full leaf Mao Feng China green tea, Pacific Northwest spearmint leaves and Australian lemon myrtle.

 

This tea is incredible cold brewed!!!  I drank this tea in Portland with Steve Smith a few years ago. I like this green tea warm, but its a completely different taste cold. The spearmint in the tea is strong and brisk... so refreshing.  cold brewed is like an iced tea-only better, more unique flavors..

Ohio Tea Co, Black Currant

 

I love love love this tea cold brewed!!!  There is so much flavor.  I drank a gallon of it in eight hours at work... filling up my half gallon Mason jar twice.  Black Currant is also known as Cassis-a berry originated from France. I recommend this tea-I give it top props!

I also enjoyed using my Shutterfly glass, when they had a 50% off sale I purchased it.

I am a huge fan of the Ohio Tea Co. I wish I lived closer.  Maybe I could get them to open a branch in Orville and let me run it.

Tea of Life, White Tea Lavender

 

My uncle passed away and my sweet friend/co-worker got me some tea.  She thought I could use the warm comfort.  Tea is always warm comfort.  So many fun flavors.

 

http://www.theteaoflife.com/- this is not the website. I could not find it on line.  But I did find that you could buy them on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Tea-Life-Collection-Organic-Ounce/dp/B00C7J5FOI/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1486560723&sr=8-1&keywords=tea%2Bof%2Blife%2Bpyramids&th=1

White Tea Lavender, was the first I tried it was really good.  My only thing is I wish it had more lavender flavor that came through.  But it is a nice taste.   Remember though with white tea you do not boil the water.  If you let the water get too hot you bruise the leaves.  You also do not want to steep it for more than. 

Christmas tea cup

Thirsty Thursday - I got this adorable cat cup for a Christmas gift.  I am enjoying a cup of jasmine pearl tea...what about you???
