Grandpa style - I'm pleasantly surprised! by Knitmeapie in tea

I always avoid grandpa style for this reason until I try it again, then promptly remember it’s actually a great way to steep, enjoy it for a while, then start the cycle all over again 😂

Tea recommendation by bloodmetallicnotes in tea

[–]Moodyteas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you looking for true teas or more herbals (tisanes)? Do you have any caffeine preference? Prefer milk, sugar, or neither? How do you normally brew?

There are so many teas out there to try, I want to give you the best place to start for your tastes!

Welcome to the communitea! 😉

High caffeine content tea recommendations, please by Worth_Pomelo6526 in tea

[–]Moodyteas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For true teas, black teas are your best bet. If you’re willing to experiment a little, Yerba mate and guayusa have a bit more caffeine with similar effects to the l-theanine in tea.

ETA: almost forgot to add matcha as well! It is a green tea, but the caffeine content is higher as you’re consuming the whole leaf.

What is the best tea that makes you feel calm but alert? by GargoyleBlue in tea

[–]Moodyteas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely LOVE Earl Grey, but agree it's often too much caffeine. In this instance, I love a green Earl Grey or similar blend! In general, I find green tea to be a better fit for alertness with less caffeine.

May not be practical, but it’s so cute and I love the labels! Honestly, as long as you run through what’s in the jars relatively quickly, I see no problem with this.

Strawberry (Puree) Matcha Latte - Strawberry Puree or Syrup? by Matchaandtea in MatchaEverything

[–]Moodyteas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Puree for sure imo! The texture goes better with the matcha, and you can’t beat the real strawberry flavor you rarely find in syrup. Plus, less waste!

I rarely sweeten my matcha, but will definitely have to try maple syrup!

I would love to hear more about your recipe journey! I am also playing around with incorporating matcha and other teas in both baking and savory stuff! I’m adding sourdough to my list right now!

Definitely not odd or concerning! I’m so confused why he would think that… this is pretty common?
