Tea InfusiastValentine’s Day is coming up! Maybe a romantic restaurant dinner for two, an in-person Galentine’s tea party with our Besties, or another ritual. Daily and seasonal rituals are so important. This post shares Valentine’s teas and Valentine’s tisanes to celebrate the season!
I love a mocktail. It elevates the moment, gives me something delicious to sip on, and doesn’t make me tired or interfere with my sleep. I enjoy many tea-infused mocktails. But since I usually drink mocktails in the evening and don’t drink caffeine that late, tea mocktails aren’t my go-to choices.
East Frisians are long-time and prodigious tea drinkers.
I timed my first blog entry to post on December 16, 2020 in honor of the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party.
I was inspired by Claire Robinson’s Earl Grey Shortbread Cookies. Using her recipe, I made some delicious cookies.
Although I love traditional, crumbly shortbread, I also really liked the texture of Robinson’s recipe. It’s less crumbly, slightly soft, and still very buttery. So, I experimented with it. My orange zest shortbread variation with chocolate was a crowd-pleaser, too.
Which tea would you pair with it? I bet a strong cup of East Frisian Tea would be delightful.
