The Norwegian Way of Tea

While Norwegians lean toward green tea and flavored green teas, tea is mostly seen as a drink for women. Norway is much more into coffee drinking, being one of the world leaders per capita for coffee consumption.

But, not to lose hope, tea drinking for health benefits is on the rise. My Norwegian ancestry doesn't even fight my love of tea. It just accepts it.

To heck with it, I'm drinking a vanilla flavored black tea. And thoroughly enjoying it!

Those Random Tea Bags

This comic reminded me so much of my house. I have a cabinet full of tea, just like pictured here, but will probably pick up the random, lonesome bag to make tea if I come across one. I actually now place single tea bags in a separate container, so I can grab from them as I choose. I normally do two bags to a pot, but occasionally will find there is a single bag leftover. They are good for when I just want a single mug.

Plain vanilla black tea, with that delicious salted caramel syrup again.
