Description
As I’ve stated in the past, I’m not particularly fond of chamomile. Oh, I don’t hate it, but I also don’t love it. Occasionally, though, I do come across a blend with chamomile in it that I like – and in the past, I’ve created a few chamomile blends that I have really enjoyed. In fact, I feel comfortable declaring my adoration for a couple of chamomile blends that I’ve created that come to mind immediately: “At Play in the Fields of Love” and “April Siesta.”
And now, I get to add a third blend to that list: Blueberrie-zzz!
I started with a base of green rooibos and added chamomile, lavender, marshmallow root, vanilla bean and blueberries.
The sip offers notes of creamy vanilla, sweet-tart blueberries, floral notes from the lavender, a honeyed apple-ish note from the chamomile, and just a hint of marshmallow-ish-ness. It’s quite lovely! It’s also all-natural, caffeine-free, organic, gluten-free, allergen-free and vegan. A perfect late-night cuppa!
organic ingredients: green rooibos, chamomile, lavender, marshmallow root, blueberries, vanilla bean & natural flavors
to brew: I strongly recommend a good shake of this blend to make sure that the many herbs within are well incorporated. Use 4g – 5g of leaf (about 2 slightly rounded teaspoons) to 12 ounces of hot water (heated to 190°F) and let steep for 8 minutes (you can steep longer, if you like – it won’t get bitter). Strain and enjoy
serving suggestion: this blend is delicious served hot or iced. I recently tried this cold-brewed & was blown away at how delicious it was! Sweetener is not needed – this is plenty sweet on it’s own – but a teensy bit of sugar will enhance the vanilla and blueberry tones.
