I don't usually write about my drinks, but today I had some Taiwanese jin xuan (oolong). Very nice aroma of honey and jasmine.

I am generally a generic black tea or jasmine tea drinker but my son gave me this and I do enjoy it

That is black tea... "Gold" isn't a new kind of tea... it is a way of selling better quality black tea.  some black teas exhibit gold-ish looking  tips...

Damn. I’m all out of gin. I don’t like tea but gin could definitely improve it!

I'll give this thread a bump.  I usually roast my own coffee but I decided to try a local roaster's espresso blend while I'm waiting for my order from Sweet Maria.   I pulled a flat white this morning and the coffee was quite delicious.  A little pricey at $16 for 12 oz but the quality of the coffee is very good and not over-roasted.

Nice looking cuppa - but was TEA involved

Whoops! I'd better get my iced tea ready.  Lipton's finest with the second meyer lemon off the tree this season.

Hey I have Liptons in the pantry and it makes a decent iced and  you pumped it up with the Meyer lemon. I had a friend who generously shared from her prolific tree. Sadly my ancient sick "regular" lemon manages only a handful a year and not aided by drought.

I'm enjoying Stash Licorice Spice Tea - very warming. Mild licorice taste with warm spices.
