Tea with Evelyn

Evelyn, a tea lover, blends her own tea from a variety of recipes. She favors single-origin teas.
While visiting in Fairfax, Virginia, this week, I’ve tried a few of her blends: quite delicious.





At the blog Altered Book Lover, many bloggers share stories about their creative endeavors and about what types of beverages they are drinking. This post is for blogger Elizabeth and the rest of them: © 2021 by mae sander.

That mug is perfect for T day Mae. And I bet you had some lovely teas to put in it too. Have a wonderful T day and visit with your family.

I've not run into anyone that blends their own teas. Interesting and fun flavors. I have had a chocolate tea and liked it very much! Enjoy, and happy T day!

Happy Tea Day,

I wish I could send her some locally farmed tea leaves. I haven't brewed proper tea for ages. Enjoy every mug with her.

Oh. I wanted to start just as Erika did already! LOL, we kinda become one "family", eh. Happy T-Day, it´s all said!

Sounds like a great idea, I sometimes blend coffee beans to make my own coffee! Happy T Day, Valerie

Hi Mae, being a boring breakfast tea drinker I'm always amazed at all the different teas all the ladies in the T gang drink, they sounds so exotic!
We have the very same kettle, I love how it lights up.
Happy T Day

How interesting is that! Blending your own tea. I looked at the names on the labels and immediately my eyes went to the Chocolate tea! (I have just come from Valerie's blog, so I have chocolate on my mind.)
That mug is perfect for the T-party. Is it yours or your friends'?
Happy T-Day,
Hugs,
Lisca

I always prefer loose leaf to tea bags, but you can't easily use the leaves in art. How great that your friend creates her own tea blends. Thanks for sharing this with us for T this week, Mae.
