experiments in tea interlude: pg tips, raspberry infusion & peppermint infusion

It's been a while! This is because I have been slacking off on trying tea because I was sick, then went on a cruise where I didn't have my teas. On that cruise, I drank a) a lot of PG Tips everday blend in single serve, which I know I like with lots of milk and a little sugar for sweetness, but b) also tried two other single serves that they had on the ship: the raspberry and peppermint infusions.

I finished neither cup. The peppermint was underwhelming compared to the mint from the gunpowder mint I'd already had, and the raspberry was just a hint of flavour in hot water and I didn't like it enough to keep drinking. So... not ones I'd go for again, and I'll just stick with my everyday teabags.

(Though my father drunk several cups of their chamomile infusion and really liked it, so each to their own.)

In addition, experiments in tea posts will probably be less formal from now on; it's a lot less fun trying new teas when I know I effectively have to write a full report on them afterwards, but I still want to write something down so I know what to order again when I run out of tea because my memory is terrible and I have a lot of teas to try. Also, image hosting takes up too much storage space to do it for every single one. But... probably more like this in future.
