A sweet grassy green tea

I am not a huge green tea fan, but I respect and appreciate a good one. That being said, if you’re picky on green tea, I’ve done your dirty work. Kukicha is sensational and recommended if you like a rich, grassy tea a la Sencha. It has a sea-like flavor to it, so I thought I’d make a beachy tea.

I wanted to emulate the breeze in the tea, so I added sweet, citrusy lemongrass. To add a little variety to the view, I sprinkled beautiful blue cornflowers on top for a sunny blue sky.

Breezy Baby’s art was done by young, up-and-coming artist, Brianna Leigh (who serendipitously was nicknamed Breezy as a kid). She’s a Cali-native, who now lives in Chestnut Hill, and I’m a big fan of her colors and creations.
