I've been trying really hard to limit my tea purchases this year. But I can't help treating myself when Dessert by Deb releases new teas!
I've been trying really hard to limit my tea purchases this year. But I can't help treating myself when Dessert by Deb releases new teas!
To celebrate the opening weekend of Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour, I drank teas that reminded me of songs from her different eras!
Self-Titled Debut - Our Song: Raspberry Rose by Clearview Tea Co.
Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed
I almost didn't notice all the roses
Fearless (Taylor's Version) - The Best Day (TV): Pumpkin Chai by DavidsTea
Speak Now - Speak Now: Mango Passionfruit Eclair by Dessert by Deb
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid
Somewhere back inside a room
Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry
Red (Taylor's Version) - 22 (TV): Cereal Milk by Dessert by Deb
It feels like a perfect night
For breakfast at midnight
1989 - Blank Space: Cherry Berry Punch by DavidsTea
Reputation - ...Ready For It? Tangerine Dream Honeybush by Monarch Tea Co.
In the middle of the night, in my dreams (my dreams)
I know I'm gonna be with you
Lover - The Archer: Fireside S'Mores by Dessert by Deb
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost
The room is on fire, invisible smoke
Folklore - The Last Great American Dynasty: Matcha Key Lime Pie by Dessert by Deb
Evermore - Champagne Problems: Sleepy Lychee by DavidsTea
Bustling crowds or silent sleepers
You're not sure which is worse
Midnights - Lavender Haze: Lavender London Fog by Dessert by Deb
I just wanna stay
In that lavender haze
Midnights - Maroon: Pink Grapefruit Rosé by DavidsTea
How'd we end up on the floor anyway? You say
"Your roommate's cheap-*ss screw-top rosé, that's how"
Do you have a favourite Taylor Swift song?
After years of treasure hunting, I finally found an item on my wish list:
A shamrock teacup!
Your friendly neighbourhood tea lover was recently gifted a pair of tea time coaster and mugs from her local Buy Nothing group.
We made it to the end of February!
3. February tea times
Cookies and Teamancy's Cookie butter herbal tea for a virtual tea time.
Monarch Tea Co.'s Double Cream Earl Grey (left) and Twinings' French Vanilla Chai (right) for a snow day.
4. My first tea haul of 2023:
I'm on "low-buy" year for tea. But I couldn't resist Daniel's Chai Bar's flash sale and stocked up on some of my favourite teas: Rated R (my favourite raspberry tea) back tea; Love Note black tea; and Wow oolong.
5. February tea empties
What I may repurchase in the future:
1. Adagio's Sweet Nothings white tea
2. Adagio's Ripe for Romance black tea
3. DavidsTea's Christmas Morning black tea
This hopeless romantic has been enjoying some lovey-dovey teas this month!
A thoughtful friend sent me samples of Adagio's Love Petals which I drank during Valentine week.
At the beginning of the month, I sent out some handmade Valentine teagrams.
