Re: Tea Drinkers of the World, Unite and Take Over!!

bea wrote:Lizzy - thanks for the suggestions!

I have another question for those of you who imbibe the spirits.

Back when I was bartending, one idea I had to bring "new" drinks to my crowd was to start playing with tea and booze combinations. Obviously some of the stronger boozes would totally crush the light flavor of most teas. My question to you all is - what type of tea do you think would be most able to stand up to having booze added to it? It's just this odd stray thought that I contemplate sometimes when I'm feeling creative as I've never really got to do any experimenting with it. It's like a half wrote poem ya know?
I would really like to try this but i'd not know where to acquire the shochu :(

Re: Tea Drinkers of the World, Unite and Take Over!!

When I lived in Virginia, there was a store down the road that sold health stuff/hobby stuff and they had some ok tea. I used to buy boxes of bagged oolong from there. In Michigan I live in the middle of nowhere, so any physical store costs $10 in gas to get to. I suppose the best thing to do would be to find a cheaper, well reviewed online retailer and try them out.

Re: Tea Drinkers of the World, Unite and Take Over!!

Those seem kind of expensive, maybe i could get someone to do it as a gift or something. So far I've been lucky to have a very nice tea drinking friend who has given me tea <3

Whatever I get my hands on so far. I've not had the pleasure of ordering anything specific from the internet, just bagged stuff so far. :(

I make iced tea by steeping twice as much tea as normal and then pouring it over a cup of ice.

I've wanted to try Lady Grey but I've not yet.

Lizzy just convinced me to put milk in my pu-erh, I didn't like it too much but it wasn't bad. Maybe it would work better for people who like milk in their tea.

Re: Tea Drinkers of the World, Unite and Take Over!!

Oolong tea is surely the best thing mankind has invented.
