Pomegranate Raspberry Green Tea in a Blue Mug

I know this mug isn’t fancy, but its bright blue color cheers me up. This is a thrift store find. I had to cut myself off from going to the thrift store. I HAD so many mugs; I gave some to my daughter.

Day 8 (January 18th)

Day 8. The tea today is by Stash & is Pomegranate Raspberry Green Tea. The “stick” is a natural pomegranate cane.

I initially drank this hot and plain. I am trying to find hot drinks that don’t have many calories.

• I did not care for this tea. I think it is the hibiscus flowers.
• However, once I added the pomegranate cane as a “stir stick,” my taste-bud-attitude changed. It was yummy probably because the sugar masked the taste of the hibiscus flowers.
• Be careful as this tea will stain fabric to a lovely light pinky-purple. I will have to try a tea staining project with this tea. Tea Staining Techniques . . . Dyeing Fabric with Tea . . . 

Your Turn . . . 

1. Have you tried teas by Stash before? Have you tried this pomegranate raspberry tea?
2. Have you ever done a tea staining project? If/when I do, I will link to this post.
