After a hard week of just-get-me-out-the-door builders teas, I made time for some more fanciful selections yesterday afternoon … this is a lighthearted take on cinnamon/caramel popcorn. Lighter steep time = heavier on the popcorn flavor; longer = more cinnamon. Fun and tasty either way.
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.
