Happy Top Ten Tuesday! Today’s theme is favorite things to eat or drink while reading, and since I make it a point to not eat while I’m reading (I would do way too much mindless snacking), I decided to go with my favorite teas.
ginger tea
This is probably going to be a shock, but my favorite kind of tea on a normal, day-to-day basis is straight up ginger tea. You have to REALLY like ginger to like this tea… but I REALLY like ginger.
minty tea
My second favorite kind of tea is minty. My favorite brand of minty tea is Tazo, but I’m not really that particular about it.
hot cinnamon spice tea
This is possibly my favorite tea in recent memory. It tastes so indulgent and amazing even though it’s just tea. I don’t know how they do it.
this italian tea from my boyfriend
This is probably the most fun tea I’ve ever had. It has little butterflies in it! My boyfriend picked this up for me when he was in Italy earlier this year and I love that it has a really light flavor.
blueberry tea
Before I really enjoyed tea, the only one I’d really ever drink was this blueberry tea.
this matcha latte
I have had exactly one matcha latte in my life, and it was this one. It came from Grace Coffee Co. in Madison, WI and it was great.
chai
While I don’t drink a ton of chai anymore, it was my drink of choice in college. Way back in the day, I worked in one of the campus cafeterias as an assistant to the pastry chef. On my last break of my last shift, he brought me a cup of chai and that was that.
pomegranate green tea
One of the good things about working in an office with waiting room snacks was that I got to sample pretty much anything whenever I wanted. I don’t think I would have bought pomegranate green tea for myself, but it turns out that I really like it!
lemon ginger tea
It’s probably not surprising, given that my #1 tea choice is ginger tea, that I love lemon ginger tea. I don’t drink this one particularly often, but it’s great for if you’re feeling kind of gross.
mint lemonade kombucha
The last tea on my list is kombucha! I love most kombucha, but I think my favorite is this Brew Dr. mint lemonade.

My Aunt served me a cup of the green tea with pomegranate. I was surprised at how good it was! Definitely the same where I don’t think I would’ve ever bought for myself to try it, but now I keep it on hand.

If you’re able to purchase it where you are: Yogi lemon ginger tea (which comes in a bright yellow box) is absolutely amazing! 😀

Try making your own Matcha Latte at home. In a Bullet blender – about 1c of 2% milk, 1 slightly rounded scoop of Matcha tea powder, 4 squirts of Toscano Vanilla syrup – blend very well, remove from the base and shake. Pour into a large mug and add a spoon or stirrer, top with whipped cream if desired. The tea has a tendency to separate out a bit, thus the spoon. Drink and enjoy (a lot!).

I love to drink teas as well while i am reading. Because otherwise i would end up snacking on loads of chips. Not cool bro, says my body. Like trying out various infusions. I have tried peppermint, chamomile, green tea, tulsi-ginger (indian basil-ginger), jasmine, pomegranate green tea, oolong and darjeeling tea.
