#TodaysTea Back to Celestial, this time Black Cherry Berry. Definitely cherry flavored, though the base is hibiscus. I found it unpleasantly tart when warm; the side of the box suggested ice, when I tried that it tasted better but weakened every flavor. Not a fan.

Remembering the time they experimented with (but never sold) fried caffeine at the Texas State Fair.

"...with the power of three Red Bulls in it."

"I was actually pretty upset. I thought I had a real winner," Zable said today. He had
two entries that the judges tasted, including fried biscuits and gravy and - wait for it
- fried caffeine. "Caffeine is really bitter when you're working with it, but I figured out a way to mbine it with this lemon filling that made it so that it wasn't bitter at all — it just had this lemon jelly donut taste, with the power of three Red Bulls in it. Judges didn't
go for it."

Unfortunately, it's hard to get good beer at that size, and people probably don't want to deal with a *drunk* kajiu beaver. That said, I could try setting up a batch of my own in one of those abandoned mindshafts out west...

#TodaysTea Leveled up to Twinings Rooibos, straight stuff this time with no vanilla. Again, think this is a good base, but already thinking of what combo of loose leaf and other spices I could do to make the flavor really shine.

#TodaysTea Rooibos was the most recommended tea when I asked, so I picked some up. Interesting flavor, kinda nutty, one that I think I won't get tired of. The lion looks friendly, I like it.

#TodaysTea Brought out the Stash to compare to the Celestial. No sleepy bear to psyop me, this will be judged on its own merits.

A case for the air-sealed foil packets, this one had a sharper flavor, more challenging but also more satisfying.
