Having my fix on this wonderful pure cup of awesomeness.
The Tea Gods have been so good to me lately.
But really, this one I have a soft spot for.
I covet it and I cherish it.
Salty, sweet liquid caramel with plums dates and figs. This is what this is. It’s a little grainy and boozy as well, I notice now.
I just can’t be without it.
So I ran to the market yesterday to get me some cherries!!! (By now, you might know I kind of have an obsession with them)
So this morning, I am dipping them in Terri’s coconut whipped cream. And I promise you that nothing in the world tastes better than this…except maybe my Ailaoshan Black!!!
Have yourself a great day everyone :-)

I am trying this one tomorrow AM! MzHoneyBelle was kind enough to send me a sample, and I am itchin’ to try it! I’m sure I’ll love it!!!
Can’t wait to find out what you think!
(Well don’t feel bad if you don’t but I’m pretty sure you will like it :-))
And MzHoneyBelle is awesome!
Frolic, here’s Terri Harplady’s recipe:
2 cans of regular coconut milk you keep in the fridge for 2 days to hardened it. You scoop out the white part and dispose of the water that you can keep for smoothies or whatever.
You mix the coconut cream with a hand mixer until it becomes the consistence of whipped cream. You can add a little maple syrup or if you want it sweeter. I’ve been also adding lemon and orange zests to mine. It is to die for!!!
Mj, its ”our” favourite ;-)
Tommy, it is obvious that your hubby has great taste!!
Boychik, you have got to try this cream….but cherries are cherries, excellent au naturel :-)
Haha, definitely our favorite :-). I had a whole pot of it on Tuesday in “our” teapot (the white and teal one from David’s Tea)
MzHoneyBelle likes this one a LOT too and mj it is indeed “our” teapot as mine is on the way. I cannot stand it anymore and I am going to Whole Foods and getting me some damn cherries like right now! And TerriWhip is awesome (even if it makes her sound like a dominatrix) and I have some in the fridge
Haha, mj and MzPriss titally “our” teapot!!
And get them cherries!!! With TerriCocoWhip (the rated PG version) it’s just heaven in a bowl.
I tried my sample this morning and it was just so gorgeous. It made me happy, and I was even drinking it at work! And I STILL felt happy! LOL. Thanks so much to MzPriss for the sample. Obviously, I ordered some.
