TEA BAGS AND BLADES OF GLORY
It was fun to read all of your hot tea and Winter Olympic event pairings, so I thought I would tally up and share with you the most popular responses. Any surprises here? Leave a comment.
TEA RESPONSES: When it comes to tea, Green Tea wins the Gold with 24 votes. Chai Tea takes the Silver with 15 votes, and Earl Grey earns the Bronze with 11 votes. Mint Tea, Orange Tea and Decadent Coconut Chocolate are also popular choices. The biggest surprise to me is the popularity of Mint Tea. I have never had Mint Tea… I’ll have to see what I’ve been missing.
WINTER OLYMPIC EVENT RESPONSES: As far as Winter Olympic events, skating is clearly the most popular. Specifically, Figure Skating (33 votes), Ice Skating (13), and Speed Skating (6). Following skating are Bob Sled, Luge, and Curling. Surprisingly, Snowboard Halfpipe only received 5 votes — maybe The Flying Tomato needs to incorporate fire into his already-dazzling Double McTwist 1260 to get his sport more love. Biggest surprises in your Winter Olympic event responses: Snow Angel and Gymnastics. LOL!
HAVE YOU TRIED COOKING WITH TEA?
I know you love to drink tea, and now I know some of the flavors you enjoy most. But have you tried to cook with tea? Give my Chai Tea Rubbed Steak Spinach Salad with a Spicy Chai Tea Dressing a whirl! Or how about my Chai Tea Rubbed Steak Taco with Spicy Chai Tea Slaw. Either way, you’re going to love the flavor of Shangri La Tea!
Shangri La Teas are available at fine restaurants around the world or at shangrilaicedtea.com.
