“Love and scandal are the best sweeteners of tea.”
~ Henry Fielding
Oolong Rouge Tea is a classic oolong blended with rose buds. I bought in Beijing after a Gungfu Chinese tea ceremony, literally “making tea with effort,” on my first trip to China.
Oolong Rouge Tea is mellow and slightly fruity with hints of rose. Pair it with chocolate covered almonds, strawberries dipped in chocolate, and tea sandwiches spread with a chocolate hazelnut butter and thinly sliced strawberries.
Whether your tea tastes better with love or scandal is up to you.
By the by, “voulez-vous boire du thé avec moi ce soir?” is formal French for “would you like to drink tea with me tonight?” a take on the phrase from the song “Moulin Rouge.”
