It’s probably a weird post to write but then again I’m sure any tea lovers *addicts* like myself will love reading this, I’d love for you to send me the links to your posts if you’ve ever done anything similar. Anyway, I’ve done a round up of five of my current tea favourites (as in the drink, not a meal), just thought I’d clear that up.
Cheshire Tea Cherry – I was kindly given this at Bristol Foodies Festival and have been drinking it almost every day since. It’s a little more ‘faff’ that your usual tea bag in a cup as it’s loose tea but it’s not as difficult as you’d think. I definitely thought it would be trickier. Or more time consuming to say the least. This has such a strong flavour. I’ve been drinking it as my relaxing evening drink after I get home from work. It’s a perfect tea to watch your evening TV with or a blog post writing accomplice.
Clipper Wild Berry – If you actually want a tea that tastes like it smells I would really recommend this one. More often then not a tea will smell absolutely gorgeous but will just taste like water with a slight ‘tinge’. I could easily compare this tea to hot blackcurrant and it’s brilliant for satisfying my sugar cravings, ideal when I’m trying to cut out sugary treats. I discovered this tea whilst staying at Clevedon Hall as it was put in my room, thanks for that.
Whittard Original Tea – As far as normal tea goes I like to have this one in the cupboard. Although it did take me years to discover this. I often ‘binge’ on Whittard when I go shopping. Usually in outlets but I used to just buy their Hot Chocolates for Sam and maybe their powdered fruit teas along with their fancy bowls and mugs. It wasn’t until my last trip where I was given a selection of their teas to sample that I realised just how nice their original tea was. Containing blends of Ceylon, Assam and Kenyan it’s nice and strong just how I like it.
Which is your current favourite?
Until next time,

Fellow tea lover here! nice to see more tea posts popping up! 🙂 The Cheshire Tea Cherry sounds like it would be amazing! Do you drink much loose leaf? As you say the “faff” can put people off a little haha.
