During my recent business trip to Amsterdam I came back with a suitcase full of various interesting Dutch teas. And now the time has come for me to taste the first of these five teas, and having the time of year in mind, I decided to start of with the Christmas version in form of Simon Lévelt Christmas tea version.
This sinterklaas thee could actually plays the role of potpourri with both it´s look and smell of potpourri !!! The Christmas tea does not contain any tea leafs at all, as it made from orange peel, cinnamon, almond pieces, red beet pieces and flavour. The outcome of using this tea is cup full of red coloured liquid with refreshing flavour of orange. However, it is a long way from the usual black teas, which I traditional prefers.
Hi Karin,
ReplyDeletegood luck with your mixing project. Perhaps I will be served a cup of your experiment, next time I come for a good cup of tea and good talk.
