The difference of a steeped and unsteeped tea is so crazy. Here you can see jasmine dragon pearl tea in different stages.

Night blossom fragrance oolong from One River Tea! Absolutely delightful. It is delicate and floral without being perfumed and overpowering.

I drank tea for the first time

Went to the closest 7/11 to my house. Finds individually packed green tea bags on one of the shelves. Bought one out of curiosity along with a large bag of chips. I steeped it for 7 minutes using hot water from a water dispenser then tasted it.

Not gonna lie it tastes like fresh cut grass or grilled banana leaf. I did not like it one bit.

I added sugar.

It tastes like fresh cut grass or grilled banana leaf but with sugar.

I have left over powdered milk and remembered British people put milk in teas. Shouldn't be too different right? Added 2 spoonfuls of it.

It tastes amazing! Sweet, milky, with a hint of fresh cut grass or grilled banana leaf!

7.5/10 not the best but not bad either

Tea culture and practises all around the world

I've been pondering on this for a while. I want to learn about the different ways to make tea from all around the globe. I want to know how you make your tea, and to learn how I can make it too if possible. I would love to hear some stories, myths, legends, memories and foods or snacks that go along with the tea. Or as long as it's connected to tea anything goes!

And I would like to share it all here on tumblr, either through pictures and text, and maybe some filming (if I'm feeling brave enough).

The how's and when's is not planned yet, and some input is welcomed. Maybe have people send in submissions? idk...?

This project is inspired by Beryl Shereshewsky's video so I'm sharing this as well. It's fun to watch, and made me really want to do something like this as well.

Witchy zero waste food hack: if you don’t like apple peel, consider shucking it off and saving it to make a delicious apple cider like tea! Add some sugar and cinnamon to give it an extra delicious taste!

A delicious fall treat!

Recipe if you wanna give it a try:

- 4 cups of fresh water

- 1-2 apples worth of peel (fresh or dried)

- 3 table spoons of cinnamon

- 3 table spoons of sugar

A very simple recipe for a great tea result!

Ok.. to you tea lovers, I have a question. What tea goes best with milk and cream? I have a bad sore throat and I don’t drink tea because I find it too bitter or watery, but I love milk and cream. Soooo…
