We live in Spain and the herbs just grow along the road. There is mint, verbena, thyme, majoram. We can buy the dried stuff loose like camomile. At the markets I can spend a happy hour looking at all the loose herbal teas mixtures for sale. I like anything with fennel or aniseed in it, or liquorice. There are also medicinal mixtures (digestive, laxative, relaxing etc)<br />I don't drink coffee, but the hubby has a fancy grind and brew machine that I don't know how to use, lol. <br />I occasionally love to indulge in hot chocolate, but not the normal kind. I once had a tin of cacao with chilli. It made an amazing cup of hot chocolate! (I have not been able to find it since)<br />Lisca xLiscahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06055538730629891703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253212297341074368.post-39880817256711007072017-02-25T04:36:37.401-08:002017-02-25T04:36:37.401-08:00I enjoyed reading about your teas Pat.

But I really do like my tea made with loose leaves in a tea-pot. Loose tea is not used here in Spain and I have to buy mine from UK. I also like some of the herbal teas. I drink them in-between but not instead of a good fresh brewed cuppa of the real thing.

I love your pretty tea tins and the box is wonderful, too. I think that learning about tea is like learning about wine.....so many kinds and so little time! At least after you drink tea you are still coherent. haha! I love Chamomile tea with honey, and I grow my own lemon balm and mint to make an herbal tea, which I am out of right now. I do love a mix of black and green tea, too. I like cream and honey in my tea and I love pretty tea-tins. I've been known to buy a tea just for the tin :) Sending hugs xo KarenKaren @ Beatrice Euphemiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631972741518142563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253212297341074368.post-46572673194717221992017-02-15T03:21:00.702-08:002017-02-15T03:21:00.702-08:00Hello Pat,

But nothing can make one feel better than a hot cuppa tea.

My daughter has given me some wonderful Japanese tea that I keep for special occasions. But for every day I want and need coffee. I drink it black with nothing in it.
