  1. This was a refreshing and different kind of drink. We loved it!! I really liked the fact that it wasn't too sweet, as I don't enjoy sweet acloholic beverages. I did add a couple of mint sprigs to the brew, just because I felt like somehting a little minty. Next time I wouldn't do that though LOL! If you like sweet tea, you may want to add some more honey, but we liked it the way it was. Thanks for a great adult treat Paula!
     
  2. Not bad! I wasn't really wild about the way the bitterness of the tea tasted with the vanilla vodka, but the honey did take the edge off a bit. Next time I probably wouldn't steep it as long, and I might add more honey (which is weird, because I don't usually like really sweet drinks). Thanks for sharing...it definitely gave me some cool ideas for a chai beverage of my own!

Let's see.....I am a chauffeur mediator personal chef private nurse psychiatrist housekeeper cheerleader tutor AND personal shopper wrapped up in one tired, overweight package. Yep, I'm a stay-at-home mom. And anyone who interjects a "just" or an "only" into that descprition is likely to get my patented "up yours" look cast in their direction. heheh. It is my experience that SAHMs do just about everything BUT stay at home. I live in a little Western Kentucky town that I didn't even know existed until I met the red-headed redneck whom would eventually become my husband and father of my adorably rotten kids. Although unintentional, it would seem that I collect cookbooks. I have an entire kitchen cabinet completely full of them. Plus they are stuffed in boxes under the bed, on a bookshelf in the living room, and in storage. I especially love to find older cookbooks. The only thing better than an old cookbook, is an old cookbook with notes jotted on in the margin or on scraps of yellowed paper. I love the thought that someone once lovingly prepared meals for a treasured family using that cookbook. Pet peeves: Shopping carts left in parking lots- especially parking lots with slots for those carts. If you do this, don't worry, I won't hurl curses or produce at you. I'll simply shoot you a dirty look, sigh, then take your cart to the designated slot on my way to the store. LOL
