There comes a point in everyone's life...

...when one woman turns to another and says: "Bitch, we must develop our own signature tea."

B? Bitch? We must develop our own signature tea.

This comes out of my recent order from Adagio Teas, where I went to get a sampler of white tea because, well, I've never had white tea that didn't taste like warm diluted Crystal Light. More in this in another post, because when I ordered my tea, they made me the proverbial offer we can't refuse: to design our own tea blend.

So here goes: Select three teas from their list, then select the percentage of each tea in the blend, name it and upload a photo. You can then order it and cry when you have 4 oz. of undrinkable tea.

But, because I am not one to lack in self-esteem, I think our tea will be genius. We can do eet!

First, let's talk which three teas. Obviously decaf is out, because, I mean, gawd, whatever!? They then have other categories - black; green; oolong; flavored; Crystal Light - I mean, white; herbal and rooibos.

From there, they have a billion subcategories, but first things first, right? I vote for a blend of black, green and flavored. Why? Because I just read in a book that Jane Austen mixed black and green and I'm unhealthily obsessed with catty dead writers. And you?

Rworr.

Alas, due to cat drama (she's fine, minus one right canine tooth and did you know the root to said tooth extends up to the cat's sinus?) and a sudden medication schedule for the beastie, Yoga Boot Camp was foreshortened.

However, I do feel obligated to report on the tea that was served last Saturday and Sunday: Yogi Tea's Redbush Chai, which was neither redbush nor chai. But probably a pretty inoffensive starter tea for people who are interested in trying these varieties.
