Happy tea day!
This is the last of my posts,
for this year,
joining in on Kimmie's Tea on Tuesday .
How time flies!
It's been an exciting year for tea.
I've tried all kinds of new teas,
received tea gifts,
and made some new tea friends.
To read some of my past tea tuesday posts,
just go to labels in my sidebar
and click on Tea on Tuesday.
This morning I'm having a
Chrysanthemum Tea Drink,
or Tra Hoa Cuc...
made by Yeo's out of Singapore.
It is an authentic Asian drink
found in a 10 oz. can at my local grocer.
It's actually pretty good.
I heated it in the microwave and poured it into my
small lidded, hand painted,
made in China cup,
that I found while thrifting this year.
I love lemon with tea, and is sweetened with sugar cane.
Lemon will actually help preserve
the flavinoids found in tea.

I look forward to many more tea days with you.
Savor the Day!

My gran always had lemon in her tea ... I forgot how yummy that is too ... I will put lemons on my shopping list :)
Your mug is great! And any thrift store find is one worth advertising ... I love to foil the consumerist system :)
Happy New Year! It's been fun to sip tea with you on Tuesday's .... And: p.s. I made soap with my mom a month or so ago, and she has really gone crazy with it! It's fun to see her enthusiasm for something homemade and hand crafted (she'll be 75 this year and her hands don't cooperate the way she'd like them to for smaller projects)
You seriously got that FABULOUS cup at a thrfit store?! I am SO jealous! Everything would taste amazing in it!
Happy New Year to you!
Health and happiness!
That does sound like an interesting tea. With our travels to India and Sri Lanka, and friends who've been to China and other Asian countries, we have lots and lots and lots of teas to drink. Wishing you a great rest of the week/month. Blessings in the new year. Tammy
