Made a new tea blend today inspired by Hobbits and Second Breakfast.

Name: Tavern Morning
Vibe: Comfort-forward preparation, gentle readiness

Ingredients:

• Roasted barley tea
• English breakfast tea
• Dried apples
• Candied ginger
• Cinnamon bark

Still adjusting the amounts. The first blend wasn’t spiced enough. The second blend almost right. Will update once I have it down.

Tools:

• Carved spoon made by my love, Damon
• Ceramic bowl, gifted from a friend, remembered fondly.
• Measuring cups, gifted from a friend, remembered with warmth
• Tea pot, thrifted with joy

Note:

For Second Breakfast Proper – drink with brown sugar and cream/milk/oat milk. The brown sugar adds to the barley and caramel notes. The added cream will allow the apple to shine and the spices to be warm not sharp.

Notes (leave space to discover):

• Taste: Malty bread notes, warm spices.
• Best time: Morning, breakfast, second breakfast or if you need comfort later in the day
• Feeling it creates: A perfect blend when you want to prioritize comfort in your day or live like a Hobbit.
