The weather is starting to get a bit nippy. It's maybe low 60's outside right now but it feels quite a bit chillier. And we're expecting a low of about 49 degrees tonight.
So maybe that's why I've been drinking like a gajillion (or is that gazillion?) cups of hot tea today?
First of all, you need to understand that as an American, I don't "do tea"...I drink it like a frat boy drinks cheap beer.
For example, here's my "tea cup":
Dainty, ain't it?
It's a vintage mug from Frankoma Pottery. I have a lot of their pieces and I came across this piece for like $3 many, many moons ago. And I've been using it ever since.
As you can see, it holds approximately 87 gallons (or 89,950 liters if my math is correct). So a full cup should go a long way.
But...no...it doesn't.
I've been drinking a lot of tea today. But at least I have some interesting teas.
(please note: I am not a tea purist, and I don't have a lot of exposure to different unique teas. If you want to recommend some for me to try, I'd be honored).
I started the day with the Rainforest Acai Berry (which was a disappointment; it was OK, but it's rooibos tea, which I personally don't like...but of course I didn't read the fine print stating this when I bought it, and I don't want it to go to waste).
I'm now on the chocolate jasmine. So far it's the ONLY tea I think is enhanced by the addition of milk. Man, this stuff's good.
Perhaps next week when I have some time, I'll try to hunt down some others to try.
