Tried Teavana’s Earl Grey during today’s rainy weather. It has a very rich bergamot aroma which I absolutely love but even after steeping two teaspoons for ten minutes it wasn’t as strong as I usually like my black teas.
As much as I am a huge fan of loose leaf teas, Twinnings makes my ultimate favorite earl grey. I usually don’t add anything to it because it is perfect on its own but when I do I add honey. It’s everything I look for in early grey tea: the punch of black tea with the mellowness of early grey. Also, I can buy it in huge boxes and tea bags are the easiest on-the-go morning source of caffeine for me. One day I will invest in one of those fancy travel infusing tumbler things for loose leaf teas. Until then, I am completely satisfied with just Twinnings earl grey when I’m in a rush out the door.
Also, the cookies are 365 organic sandwich cookies and they are absolutely delicious when paired with this tea.
