Tuhat ja Yksi Yötä


Another last cup. Tuhat ja Yksi Yötä was one of my Finnish imports. I believe the name translates to 1000 and 1 nights. It's a black Ceylon tea with fruit and a bit of lemon and brews to a lovely dark colour. It was lovely - sweet enough from the fruit that I only ever added milk to it. Even so, I'm not sure I'd feel a desperate need to get more.

Last cup of paradise

I have just made my last cup of Silk Road's Peach Paradise. I wanted to enjoy it the same way I enjoyed the first - half strong tea, half sweetened condensed milk. But, it seemed a bit wasteful to open an entire tin of sweetened condensed milk for the sake of one cup of tea.

I made it my usual way, with skimmed milk and vanilla syrup. It's better for me anyway, and it does taste lovely. I will savour it as I finish the edits on the final thesis chapter.
