It is at a "tea patina" over time.

Oh guys, so many nice props... I want one of those tea pets, a nice lucky toad might be in order. Bela, yours is great, I am envious
Anyways, today's supper:

Tie Kuan Yin in my new yixing pot, along with some lavash with some left over turkey leg.
(Deboned turkey leg, filled with parmaggiano and leek, wrapped in bacon and cooked long and slow)
I am lacking a suitable cup for this teapot. I got several 400ml ones, and none of the 50ml ones

MMMMM tell me the part about the Lavash again........that sounded deeelish !! Looks Deeelish too

I had some apple flavoured black tea, added a bit of washed raw sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon. It was like sipping a slice of apple pie, very nice!!

Now try that iced as well...........

What I use for my iced tea is probably something that any tea purists reading this will probably now think of me as some kind of barbarian. Through the course of the day, whenever I make a pot of tea, I make a bit more than my cup will hold. The extra goes into a plastic cup. So, it slowly fills through the day. A little Pu Erh, some apple black, some black Azorean tea, Earl Grey, maybe some oolong or green tea. It all goes into the cup. I keep it in the fridge and when I want some iced tea, the mystery mix is what I use. Ya know, it's always damn good!! Maybe I'm just a cretin.

read back many threads Don Many of us do similar. If I don't finish a pot,I add cold water and more sugar and chill. PG Tips makes fine iced tea.

Ok, so here is my canundrum. Tonight I am going to fill the hookah with some either vanilla or orange shisha, depending on who joins me. I have 4 razors to do some touch up work on, but I can't figure out what tea to drink. Do I go Russian, middle eastern, or China black. Any suggestions.
Forgot to add in making some Arnold Palmer iced tea.

Middle eastern seems to be logical choice to me. Apple tea if ya got it.

No apple, I am not a huge fan of apple's, growing up with an orchard behind my house kinda wore me out on apple's.
