\nI’m not really a coffee person. I prefer tea, and I know a lot of fellow writers love tea, too. But have you ever wanted to break out of the Early Grey or English Breakfast norm and try something new? Well, let me help you find some cool new teas! If you need a little hot and flavorful boost to help you reach your writing goal or you’re just a lover of tea or you’d like to try some tea but aren’t fond of the stereotypical types, these Tea Tuesday posts are for you.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nThis weeks tea is … <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n*drum roll*<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nSerenitea<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n


<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nHow I found it:<\/span> <\/span>I’m back with another fandom set from Adagio Teas. I’ve had my eyes on this one for a while and now I’ve finally gotten the Firefly <\/i>set! Shiny! Any Firefly<\/i> fans out there? Then this is the set for you. I’ll be reviewing the six teas of this set: Serenitea, Captain Mal, Inara, Zoe, Jayne, and River Tam. <\/div>\n
\nThis is the same site I bought the Avengers<\/a> set,Sherlock<\/a> set, Tolkien<\/a> set, Avatar: the Last Airbender<\/a> set,  Doctor Who<\/a> set, Attack on Titan<\/a> set, RWBY<\/a> set, and Divergent<\/a> set from!<\/div>\n
\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\nThe Tea: <\/span>This blend fits the good ol’ boat Serenity so well! The smoothness and smokiness of the gunpowder reminded me of the ship’s might and the Asian flavor of the Firefly world. The hazelnut reminded me of the fact that’s it’s a home and a bit of the Western flavor of the show, and the spearmint gave a hint of the serenity the ship was named after as it cruises through space. Lastly, the marigold and safflower remind me of the sweet memories spent on the ship. I think this tea would definitely have Captain Mal’s seal of approval. Speaking of him his review’s up next! I could see the Firefly<\/i> crew sipping this tea after a hard day’s work.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nServing Recommendations: <\/span>I steeped this tea for five minutes and added sugar.<\/div>\n
\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
\nHow much is it and where can you get it?<\/span> <\/span>You can find this tea at the Adagio website<\/a>. I bought this tea in a sample set which was about $22 including shipping and you get a goodly amount of tea since you only need about a teaspoon per cup. Some of these teas you can buy individually for about $10 a pouch. <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nSo how good is it?<\/span> <\/span>I give this tea four shiny stars! It is unique and perfectly fitting for the fandom it’s made for!<\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nHave you tried this tea? What did you think of it? Have you seen Firefly<\/i>? Who’s your favorite character?<\/b><\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nBonus! If you are a first-time Adagio customer I can send you a $5 giftcard! Ask in the comments for details! (This is no joke and no catch I seriously can. It’s part of the amazingness of Adagio Teas)<\/b><\/span>
