White Christmas

This is another one by Stash. I have to say I love the creativity of the names of their teas.

Flavor: It is simultaneously warming and cooling. The warm, slightly spicy flavor starts first and then almost immediately is cooled by a soft minty aftertaste.

Suggested Additions: I added just the tiniest bit of white sugar. There was a faint bitter taste, perhaps from the white tea, or from the mint. But just a little sprinkle of sugar corrected that.

Ingredients: White tea, peppermint, ginger root.

Purpose: A light amount of caffeine in this tea helps you wake up a little. This tea is reminiscent of a white Christmas morning: crisp and clean and cool but simultaneously warm and cozy.
