Maybe I should start a thread on kung fu teas.

There are a lot of teas that don't spawn this kind of reaction, and are more like..

I hate those calming herbal teas, whats the sense..... besides.... I am currently drinking a cup of green tea, (gun powder tea [珠茶; zhū chá]) Just couldn't TAKE it anymore.... now if I can just finish it before Mrs Xue gets home

Both matcha and pu erh come in sticky rice flavor. Dominion tea company. Shh.

We watched the Adam project yesterday. What a surprising movie. Had no expectations and really enjoyed it. If you’re looking for something fun to watch, I recommend it. .

Watched it as a family last week... Lots of fun and a nice message along the way, too. But it doesn't beat you over the head with it.

My Puerh comes from China, my wife's colleague has a tea plantation there
I tend to get my organic Gunpowder tea and Genmaicha, that I currently have, and other teas from "Organic Positively Tea" Otherwise I tend to get "Divinity tea"

But I get a ton of the stuff from family in China

Why oh why do you and @Dirty Dog want to kill me with Bacon

You run from what will cure you... It's perversity and stubborness.

Sweet.

Almost all Pu-erh comes from China, or the region surrounding Yunnan. It's funny because the tea spread through southern China and beyond the same way martial arts did.

Dominion in the US happens to sell a variety of sweetened versions, and in my book life is too short not to sweeten tea.

Here's a nice little video about part of the process of making it. I wish I had some real kung fu herbal knowledge, but mine is limited to forest first aid, basic liniments, and teas.

And I think life is to short to sweeten tea

My wife is a TCM Doc from Beijing so I get all sorts of herbal teas. But a word of warning. True Chinse herbal teas for health as for taste, all come in varying levels of disgusting. Add sweetener and it only makes it worse.

When I was in China, thinking I knew a lot about tea, my sister-in-law basically put me to shame as far as my knowledge of tea went. Mostly she just laughed at me...

View attachment 28267A little bacon here, sticky toffee pudding for dessert.

For anyone unfamiliar, sticky toffee pudding is like... top five best desserts ever.

It's a cake made with reconstituted dates (rehydrated with water and a little rum). I also add a lot of ginger (both ground and freshly grated), and brown sugar. It's topped with a couple of healthy spoons of butterscotch sauce, put under the broiler to make it yummy and warm, then topped with vanilla ice cream. Then a little more hot butterscotch sauce to melt the ice cream a little.

Have this with a nice cup of fresh coffee, and you're in heaven...

Also, no bacon is harmed in the making. It is certified 100% bacon free.

You know, bacon might not be bad, especially if you glaze the bacon in a little of the butterscotch, throw it under the broiler for a bit, and then break it up into little crumbles. I bet that would be delicious... give it a little saltiness. Not a bad idea.

This happens so often around here I literally laughed out loud. Talk about straining the gnats but drinking the camel.

Yes exactly, i use brown sugar and dried red Chile flakes. It’s delish! I think butterscotch instead of brown sugar is really elevating it to the next level.
