Guest guest Posted February 23, 2003 Report Posted February 23, 2003 Sandy, Which ones did you get? I love loose teas. I would start with a rounded teaspoon first and go from there on the strength. There are no silly questions, just silly answers HTH Linda http://www.lillizard.com Quote

The orange spice is really yummy. The green tea is ok with a little stevia. :-) -- Sandy Quote
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2003 Report Posted February 23, 2003 Great:) Try adding a little Hibiscus or Lemon Balm with the green tea. It adds flavor and makes a smooth tea:) Linda http://www.lillizard.com - I bought some green tea and some orange spice tea. The orange spice is really yummy.

I only use about 1/3 of a teaspoon in my mini teaball. I think though, because i'm not a die-hard tea drinker, that 3/4 teaspoon would be plenty for anyone. It really does depend on the tea though. I use 1 teaspoon of a peach oolong tea I have. HTH's, Deonia Quote

LOL, I figured everyone would think I was a chicken when I said I only used 1/3 of a teaspoon. My girlfriend, who introduced me to the " gunpowder " used 3/4 a teaspoon. BTW, do you know anything about the green tea that grows already sweet? I think it's called " Ama-cha " or it could be " Sen-cha " . Deonia Quote

I used to but it from a Christian tea room. I suspect they renamed it to keep anyone from being able to order it from their supplier. They are now closed and I'm on my last pound of it. I have searched the tea sites without any results. I thought the Peach Oolong I have was it, but it wasn't. If anyone has ever heard of this extreamly mild peach flavored tea, please let me know.
