Writer’s Workshop: Some Tea for Me

Tea in A pot

Apple and Chrysanthemum tea which is drunk with honey

I’ve always enjoyed drinking tea. I can’t remember when I started drinking tea but one of my all time favourites were chrysanthemum and earl grey. I could never drink coffee and fizzy drinks also do not appeal to me.

In the recent years I have been more adventurous and tried out many different teas. I’ve got to taste more high end tea and am indulging in TWG green teas which I simply love. Their Silvermoon tea is my favourite and everyone in the family loves this light green tea. I didn’t know that there is such an assortment of black/white and green teas available. There is more then 100 over selections

Other types of teas which I frequently drink are Ice Honey Green Tea which I normally have alongside my meals when we eat out at a Chinese restaurant. If that is not available or we are out for breakfast I would order Honey Lemon Tea instead.

I lived through the bubble tea craze where everyone went for pearls “starch balls” in their ice teas. I still don’t get the hype for bubble tea even though it is still quite popular here. I do see people queuing up for  KOI bubble tea at all their outlets and have yet to try it to see why is it so “spectacular” at $4-$6 a cup.

There are many benefits of drinking tea, especially green tea since it is suppose to help in dieting. I’m going to grab myself another cup of tea now.

What is your favourite drink?
