Watermelon Raspberry Green Tea
With Labor Day fast approaching, the end of summer is right around the corner. We’ve decided we need one last taste of summer in our tea of the week this week. It’s our Watermelon Raspberry Green Tea with real freeze-dried raspberry pieces and natural watermelon and raspberry flavors. This is a delicious treat, particularly iced. Looking forward to reading your reviews of this on Steepster.com.

Chinese Sencha
So, we’ve had several people who have been asking about the base tea we use to blend our flavored green teas with. I went through several different green teas before choosing what I thought was the best tea for blending our flavored green teas with. And this tea IS super yummy all by itself.
Here’s our buttery-sweet Chinese sencha with nothing added. I’m placing it directly into our permanent collection since we should always have this on hand.

Citrus Spice Chamomile
So, to be completely Frank with you (I love saying that): I’m not a big chamomile person. Lately I’ve been thinking I could use a bit of a sleep aid, and (in case you didn’t know already), chamomile actually has a natural, mild muscle relaxant in it, which many people use to help them relax/sleep. Still, if I’m going to drink chamomile, it needs to taste like something other than flowers.
So, without further ado:

Congratulations to Natalie Tyler who correctly identified Jacksons of Piccadilly as the originators of Earl Grey.

Earl Grey Cheesecake
I spent some time tweaking the base tea for this blend. I had to get it just right. This has an amazing mixture of Indian and Chinese black teas, including some Darjeeling, blended with marigold petals, oil of bergamot and natural cheesecake flavors. The balance of this cup is amazing. The sharp citrus notes of the bergamot contrast beautifully with the sweet creamy cheesecake flavor.
