Ask anyone that knows me well and you’ll know a few things about my love of a hot beverage.
a. I’m not a big coffee drinker. I rarely have it.
b. I love tea…not just any tea…whole leaf tea.
c. I think good tea is an art and I love to find the perfect tea.
Right now I am drinking a whole leaf tea called “almond blossom.” It actually includes slivered almonds. I love steeping my tea for the desired 3 – 4 minutes (based on the tea type) and including a natural sweetener and cream. Not everyone likes cream in their tea, but I just love it. You can only add cream to non fruit flavored teas though. If you put it in fruit flavored teas then it will curdle. If you want to know more about how to properly brew a cup of tea, click here.
