someone thought they were doing me a favour and gave me camomile teapigs. well, they're pretty but camomile? I don't have enough antihistamines to override that amount of pollen in a cup.
I'm finding it wonderful to be able to learn more about this tea ceremony from Ost Friesland. We participated in a few when visiting family friends in the 1970's and 80's, but it's only recently I've been able to find anything about it online.
Not strictly tea, well, not at all really, but it is an infusion of leaves
Still counts.
Trying a Genmaicha green tea. Smells kind of like popcorn.
It's good. I got a couple more cups from my sample packet ... so I'll try to brew it more diligently. Does kind of have a puffed rice-esque aftertaste.
Not sure if I'll add this one to my repertoire of green teas to drink on a regular basis.

@vonny,
are there tea leaves?
if not, then it's more likely a tisane rather than a tea
