With all due respect to the vendor, when I saw “Chamomile Black Tea” on a seller’s website (can’t remember whom) the Cheapster started whispering in my ear: “Don’t buy that. You can make it!” And so I did. Tossed a teaspoon of bulk-bin chamomile leaves in a steeping basket with some good-quality leftover Keemun. Badda-bing! A very pleasant afternoon treat. The Keemun toned down the strength of the chamomile; the chamomile added a little uptick to the black tea. This will be a repeat blend in my kitchen!

Hm. Might have to try that. Certainly have the ingrediments on hand.

Next time, will try a different black base to see what happens—some decent Ceylon might be a nice complement.

So I’m not the only one who does that. aahhah

Absolutely not! :)

Totally here you. For me, I have a chamomile and mint blend that I’m trying to use up. I will never buy it again because I always have chamomile and mint loose leaf tea and I can easily mix them together if I feel like it.

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
