230 Days of Tea: The Tea Resolution

 So, way, way, way back in January, I made a new year's resolutions. One was to clean out my pantry. And in doing so, I made another resolution. My tea collection had gotten pretty large. It was taking up too much room in that pantry. I vowed to go through that tea collection - consume more of it by trying a new tea each day and giving a bunch away to other tea lovers.

I finally got through all those varieties I had on hand and then I bought others and reached out to some tea companies to ask if they'd send a sample so I could add another new flavor to my list. 

It's now October!!! And the resolution is still going. That's pretty astonishing. How many new year's resolutions last that long? I've not quite kept up with trying one every single day. I tried to have two cups some days to make up for other days when I hadn't tried any, but I haven't quite caught up. So I may not get all the way to 365 different teas by the end of the year, but I've tried a lot. I'm into the 220s now and still trying new ones. There are so many out there.

I had been stuck on the same reliable teas that I liked, but it's so nice to try something different and I'm so glad I decided to do this little tea tasting experiment this year. Scroll down to see all of the ones I've had so far this year.
