Inspired by the tea-making talents of people like Frank and LiberTEAS, I’ve attempted to blend my own crazy, insane tea. This one should probably have never been attempted, but I’m doing it anyway. And, nope, not telling what’s in it (yet). Let’s just say that you’d go o_O.
Trial #1: Well, I did manage to infuse the flavor I wanted into the tea leaves. Perhaps too much flavor. A smidge overpowering, and I have to try to taste the rest of the ingredients. So, back to the drawing board with this one I go! It’s promising enough to play with it further. I’ve still got a few cups of this batch left; will play with the steeping parameters and see what happens.
And, since it’s my own concoction, I shan’t rate it.

Oooh ooh I want to know i want to know! Can’t wait to see how your trials turn out!
I’m w/ Meghann! but :( for not rating it.
As it stands right now, it smells exactly as it should (especially the brewed leaves), but the taste isn’t what I want yet. I will say it is vegan, but not gluten free. I already know what I want to do to the second batch, and will probably work on it tomorrow. I’d probably rate it a 45-50 right now, but that’s because I know what I want it to taste like, and it’s not there yet.
I’ve not tried Experimental Blend #2 (yes, it’s just as crazy as #1), but am working my way up to it. It does smell like it should as well; when my dad walked into my house yesterday, he said “why do I smell -- -——?”
