From Holy Assumption Monastery in Calistoga, CA. Blended by The Taste of Tea, a Japanese restaurant and spa in Healdsburg, CA. Both places close to home.
It’s everything I dislike but I’m drinking it to keep this sore throat soothed.
LEMON CLEANER with mint, the cloying sweetness of licorice root
Housemate loves it. I wonder wtf is wrong with her sometimes. Crazy coot.
Maybe I’ll go to Taste of Tea today. A rice bowl sounds really good.

I love lemon teas, but not when it turns into lemon cleaner/furniture polish. Blech.
I think there is no middle ground…either you love licorice or you are correct :)
Mastress Alita: it’s just lemongrass but dang is it strong! I love fresh lemongrass in cooking but when dried it seems to concentrate and disrupt the balance of aromatic compounds I enjoy in other dried ‘lemon’ herbs like myrtle and balm.
gmathis: You know, the only tea with noticeable licorice root that I’ve truly enjoyed is Mandala’s ginseng oolong.
