Yorkshire
Gold
Green
Ginger and honey
Lemon
Peppermint
Stomach ease
Some sleepy potion thing that doesn't work

I hate that they make you buy a box of 40 tea bags when you just want one cup of peppermint because you've got the most horrendous trapped wind that time you had surgery 2 years ago and the rest are just languishing in the back of the cupboard

frozendaisy · 28/12/2024 22:57

Yorkshire normal, black, with biscuits, with caramel biscuits
4 types of black leaf tea
Earl grey leaf, bags, decaf
Black chai

Chamomile, chamomile & honey, chamomile & spiced apple, cherry & cinnamon, liquorice, peppermint, buttermint, dr stuarts sleepy, vanilla chai, rooibos,

Homegrown dried spearmintl

Green leaf, green bags, white tea, jasmine green

And then there are my favourite yogi tea herbal brand and I've essentially got all of them!
Classic, bedtime, ginger, choco, chocomint, women's energy, throat, rose, (these I buy in bulk)

Pratting about with a teapot is one of my fettishes.

I also drink strong coffee in the morning but after about 11am I usually have a herbal on the go. Well I would have to to justify all this to be honest.

I was looking for Earl Grey hence pulling out the contents of the cupboard and discovering just how many we have. And now I feel I can't buy any EG til some of the others are finished.

Nonsense!

I also have the yogi Christmas tea limited edition (bought in 6 pack) because there was a slight but discernable difference to their classic
It's lovely smells like mince pies without the sweetness. Perfect for December

The H despairs!
