Being down south in Texas, they are serious fans of sweet iced tea, which is fabulous because, as you know, I love love love tea! Arizona has a new flavor: Southern Style Real Brewed Sweet Tea Ummm…yeah…a new fave for a quick drink from any convenience...
Great Resource for Loose Leaf Teas in Niagara Falls
I happened to notice an establishment on Lundy’s Lane today in Niagara Falls, Ontario that I hadn’t seen before. I usually go to Teaopia at the Pen Centre in St. Catharines, as many of you know from previous posts, but I’m so happy to find this place! LM Teas was formerly known as Lodi Market. I am a serious darjeeling tea freak, so I needed to get some and noticed they were open. I went in and saw hundreds of...
How to Make Chai Tea at Home – Kimberly Style
When it’s raining – pouring outside – it’s time to stay in and make some warm, homemade Chai Tea at home! Find out how I prefer my Chai and how to properly brew loose leaf black tea. 5 minutes only for steeping or it will turn bitter. Check out my video made today: This is a real treat for me. Plus, it’s so much cheaper than driving up to Starbucks or William’s Coffee Pub for a $5.00 latte! *** I...
I Keep Breaking My Glass Tea Pots
This is a small rant I have… I love making tea with loose leaf tea leaves, so of course, I have one of those fabulous glass tea pots for Blooming Tea and loose leaf tea out all the time. The Problem Is: They are so very delicate made with very thin glass that they are not practical for the “normal” household. Why?: Since they are so delicate, they break all the time! We’ve gone through at least 8 of these...
Blooming Tea is Bloomin’ Amazing
Have you seen “blooming tea”? It’s usually a mixture of different tea leaves and flowers that are wrapped and packed up into a tight ball. When you put it in your clear tea pot and wait 10 minutes, they turn into a beautiful, plumped up flower! Literally, it looks like a pretty flower, often with different colors. There are endless flavors, including many with jasmine green tea, lily flower, chamomile, echinacea, and...
Looking for a Great Fruit Tea?
We polished off a 50 gram bag of Black Currant tea from Teaopia this week! It’s really delicious! It has a base of hibiscus, apple pieces and rose-hip peels…Then, it has elderberries, black currant leaves and black currants, and vanilla. Now, I love black currant, any currant for that matter (we grow them in our garden)…Many people find them bitter or say they taste sort of like soap or perfume…LOL…...
PG Tips Tea & Florida Crystals Combine to Make Odd Flavor
What Does That Mean? Well, I can tell you my story… When I drink black tea, I almost always only drink PG Tips brand, care of my English nanny from when I was a baby. It’s the BEST black tea in existence to me and the people around me! I bring PG Tips tea bags with me when I travel, as you never can find them ANYWHERE!!! So, I buy filtered water at a grocery store and make it at home, where I am staying. This past visit to...
An Easy Alternative to Goji Berry Green Tea
The newest craze in healthy food is the Goji Berry… Goji berries are more scientifically known as Wolfberries or Western Snowberries. (It’s a long story that I won’t cover here as to why they are referred to as Goji now…LOL…Check it out on Wikipedia.) Being that Dried Goji Berries are full of nutrients, powerful antioxidants, and 4 Polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates), they are very healthy… However, since...
Web Chef Review: Seattle’s Best Coffee – Chai Tea Latte
I had a lay over at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Internional Airport today, and could NOT find a Starbucks in Concourse C. So, I did my best to find myself some caffeine in a non-coffee format. I found Seattle’s Best Coffee and got the Chai Tea Latte… As you know, and I have explained to you before, I am so very picky when it comes to my Chai Tea Lattes…especially when I’ve found one that I’m in love...
The Best Chai Tea Lattes in Niagara Falls, Canada
I was a Starbuck’s freak last year until about a few months ago, when I was getting a little tired of my usual Chai Tea Latte…I think I overdrank them! * (Anyone want to buy 2 of our top-up cards from us at face value? They have not been registered, so you can do that yourself and they will be your very own! Comment me below and I’ll email you back!) So, I started drinking the White Chocolate Mocha, and got sick of...
How to Make Kimberly’s Masala Chai Tea from Scratch
Ever experienced Kimberly’s Masala Chai Tea from Scratch? You must… I love chai tea and have recently gotten bored with the Starbucks blend, and no other chai tea from the store in bags or loose-leaf has really excited me. So, I have finally tweaked my ideas until I found what it is that I like…Here it is! Kimberly’s Masala Chai Tea from Scratch: It is unnecessary to say the word “tea” afterwards...
How to Make the Perfect Cup of Green Tea
Okay, if you have ever drank a cup of green tea and thought, “I have no idea what everyone sees in this!”, then you are likely not making your green tea correctly. Green tea is chocked full of antioxidants that eliminate free radicals that promote cancer. It is also great for dieting. I drink green tea every single morning, now that I know how to make it. I used to think green tea was bitter and tasted like I was licking...
How to Make After 8 Chocolate Mint Iced Tea
This is my husband’s absolute favorite iced tea that I make. I first made it for him when we lived in Iowa, and I had an overabundance of chocolate mint in my garden…It took over, and I needed to figure out a way to use it all up. It is southern-style in that it is a sweet tea. ~ Kimberly Edwards Type: Beverage Prep Time: 5 min Cook Time: 5 min Serve With: You can make an alcoholic version of this drink by adding 1/2 shot...
