T Stands For Tea Sampler

 

This week's pick from the tea sampler was the exotic Egyptian Chamomile. This tea smelled like grass. No, not the kind you smoke, but the kind you mow. I didn't think the tea had any taste at all. Adding a spoon of honey just made it taste like hot water and honey. 

Add this one to the no thank you column.

Drop by hosts, Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog to find out what the rest of the T Stands For gang is up to. If you want to play, include in your Tuesday post a beverage or container for a beverage. Don't forget to link your blog to Bleubeard and Elizabeth's page.

    1. Baked apple tea with milk sounds so comforting.

  3. I wonder if you can make a hot beverage with the other “grass” — I’ve never thought of that.

    1. If you can bake it into brownies, I bet you could make medicinal tea

  4. Great to try new teas, but camomile isn't my favourite either 😊. Take care and happy T Day wishes! Hugs, Jo x

  5. It doesn't sound very pleasant. I hope you get some good teas out of this sampler. And stay warm. Brrrr. Have a happy T day.

  6. IMHO most of the flavored teas belong in that column. ☹️

    1. I'm beginning to suspect it's like kale. Everyone raves about it, but no one really likes it. 🤣

  7. How disappointing. But it's good that you got samples. At least it teaches you which ones not to get.
    Happy T-Day,

  8. There is always at least of this kind in any sampler, right? Happy T Day!

  9. I drink chamomile tea when I have an upset stomach... Both aren't exactly pleasant (but if I have to choose one of the two, it would be the chamomile tea). Happy belated T day!

  10. Too bad it didn't taste like anything as it is supposed to be good for you. So fun to have a sampler though. Happy T-day, CJ and hugz

    1. Yeah, as Lisca said, it teaches me what not to buy

  11. I have never been a fan of camomile tea. And this sounds even worse. Sorry I am late visiting, but I am thrilled beyond belief that you shared your T Stands For Tuesday post and the latest sample tea with us this week.
