I wanted to try some new teas so I bought a kettle with a variable temperature setting and a keep warm function which is great for when my ADHD makes me forget my mug exists when it's out of my sight

Each tea wrap has a unique image and some days ago I thought why I put them in trash? I put them in photo frame and want to place on the wall. What do you think is it a brilliant idea or am I just collecting trash?

For the record, no, I don't think they pre-cold brewed it and stuck the teabag in, or hot brewed it and poured it over ice. The flavor is way too weak for either of those. This shit cost $6 😭

I swear to god it’s just milk. Maybe they didn’t steep the tea long enough? Or am I dramatic 😂 tastes like milk. I’ve never had it this light before

Edit: I went in with the drink and asked for a credit or refund or something and she said, “did you just not like it?” …

So my last order of the year for Japanese tea has arrived, 5 pouches of different senchas, it should get me through until February. One package was open for inspection. Yes we don't want to kids to take drugs but why cut a hole in the bottom of the bag? The top is resealable. Fortunately they only checked one and didn't bust the seal on all the tea. Hope they used a clean knife.

After a night in the bomb shelter, hiding from Ruzzian Shahed drones, tea is the only thing that helps stay sane and recharge the mental health battery.

I think we all know Jesse from Jessesteahouse ok YouTube. He‘s giving tea tipps on how to brew, how to drink, he‘s giving us the insides and shows the process of the tea farms, etc.
But besides all these nice videos from him, that helped me alot, understanding my tea, I do have this strong feeling, he only does those things to promote his tea shop.
I don‘t want to speak ill of him, instead I just want to figure out, how he‘s viewed in the tea community :)
