It looks like some green Kool-Aid that's been at the back of the fridge too long. LOL

Yes, it occurred to me while I was admiring the pitcher that it needed a finger drawing through the condensation.

What is it, and what does it taste like? Is it yummy, disgusting, or inbetween?

Sencha green tea. Tastes like grass steeped in chicken broth. But it has about ten times the kick of coffee, it lasts about 6 hours, and no jitters; you're awake but feel awesome, too, no crash.

Acquired taste?

I think if you're unused to it, it would seem pretty disgusting, but I like it at this point.

Sencha's grass-like taste was always one of my favorite things about green tea. Along those same lines, pu-erh tastes like a forest floor. I don't really like the taste of grass or forest floors in general, but in tea the evoke something natural and delicious to me.

Jesus how far they fall.

I piss my green piss at your general direction.

Did you get the green tea starter kit when you ordered your manbun?

Yeah, it came with a fair-trade coffee mug and a coupon code for 10% off fucking your sister.

Heh!

Hey Aqua,
I'd like to try the green tea and maybe a couple of others you recommend.
Do you buy online, and if so, where?

Is the green tea a tedious long process to make?

I primarily buy this stuff:

Amazon makes it easy.

Nah. I make it more complicated but it doesn't have to be. Boil water, pour over.

The thing is, though, you've got to reuse the leaves or you're pissing money away. And the first infusion is always the worst. So, reuse the leaves. I get 5 consistently from each batch of the above.

Thanks!

Aqua, I'm sure it was just a simple typing error, but the two words before sister are in the wrong order.

Just yanking your manbun a bit. However, it is true I read your every word. Cross my heart.
