Tea?

[BrotherShamus]

As a southern gentleman I'd have to agree with you on that one High Priest Allen. So refreshing

Y'know what they say about birds of a feather, BrotherShamus.

I recently cold-brewed some tea. I almost felt like a traitor for not using heat, but it was pretty damn good. I let it "brew" (more like soak) for a lot longer than most do. I think it sat for something like 25 or so hours. It was a green tea & chamomile mix. Going to play around with the ratios.

Black tea (absolutely love the "Irish" teas made with more assam) ocassionally with milk and sugar, sometimes just sugar and some mint, green tea usually with no sugar, same for oolong and other light or delicate teas. Absolutely no tisanes.

I'm a coffee person here and there but I need lots of cream and sugar with it.

I like both my black teas and my coffee to be moderately strong.

At one of the pickups for our food bank this weekend there was a shopping cart full of "expired" bags of coffee and some tea.  There was a large bag of black and another of oolong so I grabbed those, the rest went out to everyone else.

When I got home I looked it up, Holy Camellia Sinensis Batman!  It was close to $200 worth of tea!

It's good, too!

@jdurand : I love your exclamation, dude  (just got myself a 2 faced coin prop, can't stop playing with it).

So who buys $100 bags of tea in the grocery store?  Or am I that out of touch with people who have money?

I wish I could spend that on tea, it's PG tips all the way for me, but I can usually tell what tea is by the smell.

Earl Grey and English Tea Time; a couple of favs...after beer.

Sliding from tea to dinner, on the stove is a Chinese, Korean, Japanese dish based on raccoon, lettuce, tofu, kimchi, rice, and various spices.

I guess my wife got bored.

RACOON!!!!? WTF?


Racoon man....are you serious?

Peace.

[jdurand]

What's wrong with raccoon?  Quite tasty, lot of meat on one, not at all endangered.  Got a bunch of meat in the freezer.

Just finished the last bite.  Yum!

[meekon5]

raccoon tea?

Is that like lapsou souchong (some sort of eastern thing)?

[jdurand]

I did say I was moving from tea (just finished my tea when I wrote that) and on to dinner.

Got to have something to chase the tea with!

"Tooth & Claw Tea", has a real bite!

"Bandit Tea", will really sink its teeth into you.

I drink it straight, I don't like adding milk or sweeteners in my coffee OR tea. The only exception is a little honey in my Green tea, but that's pretty rare. 

For teas, I really like green (white, red, & black are fine too), earl grey, peppermint, and oolong on occasion. My wife buys Celestial Seasonings in various flavors, so there's always a variety on hand, and I like pretty much all of them. So far...
