I have no knowledge of this fandom so just went with the clues from the tin. I love wolves and it was so hard to pick just one picture.
12:00 am
I have no knowledge either!! 😘
12:31 am
Looks like a good book series.
01:02 am
Potential contender for book club?
06:30 am
Good choice! I love the eyes in that picture

Today's dragon has glow in the dark eyes, against a night sky themed color pattern <3 not familiar with the fandom for today's tea, but the name is pretty cool!
12:02 am
🌙 Hello night owl 🦉 tea crew 🌙
12:02 am
Great photo!! Love the glowing eyes.
12:20 am
I agree! So cool!
12:48 am
Love the photo!
01:56 am
Julie , Love your night eyes, they look real. Spooky.
07:53 am
Heather I love your picture, I had a kitty back up picture.
12:03 am
Those are some real night eyes.
12:04 am
Good night, catch yall n the morning 😊
12:03 am
Good night, Julia!
12:29 am
Has anyone else tried resin jewelry? I took a class recently and it was so fun!
12:03 am
I made one piece a few years ago at a bead and jewelry show that looked like a druzy. It is addicting to watch resin crafting on YouTube. Seems like a pricy but fun craft to get into. Was asking what you made but checked the photos. Awesome! Are those nature found items as the inclusions?
12:08 am
Resin makes pretty jewelry! I was gifted a necklace pendant, a favorite still.
12:11 am
Yet another thing to add to the list of things I *want* to get into but *shouldn’t*
01:57 am
The results are gorgeous, your pendant and earring set included! I’ve not seen an art form more polarizing in recent years though. It’s vicious! Videos online are totally mesmerizing but the comments are horrifying, no matter whether the artist notes that they’re using a more environmentally friendly new type of resin, which is probably even pricier.
03:24 am
I have never tried it, but it looks so fun and pretty! I am debating trying alcohol inks...
06:46 am
Alcohol ink is so much fun! I think you’d love it!
11:55 am
Addison, They turned out gorgeous. I have made coasters with poured acrylic and coated them with resin. It certainly looks easy, but resin can be tricky. You really made yours beautiful, you are a natural craftswoman.
07:54 am
Addison, those are gorgeous!
08:48 am
Happy Birthday Carrie 🎂

Thank you!😘
08:32 pm
I know nothing about this fandom, so I went with night "eyes" - the moon and Venus, which were both so beautiful tonight!
12:06 am
Astronomy is really something special 😌
02:46 am
Heather your photo made me laugh! I love it.
12:07 am
I also don't know this fandom, but I think my magnetic frame works well enough!
12:08 am
I'm not sure about this fandom, but when I saw Nighteyes I thought of Monster Mash tea candy eyes looking right at me when I first opened the tin.
12:10 am
That was perfect!! I
12:32 am
Omigosh isn’t that the best?? 😂
03:04 am
I loved it, but was hoping those eyes would be more numerous 😁
12:12 pm
Addison, the resin jewelry is beautiful!
12:11 am
Happy birthdays, Letti and Carrie!
12:11 am
Thank you!😘
04:36 am

This one is interesting. I like the hint of cranberries.
12:12 am
Love this tea. Another one in the cart……
12:13 am
Can't wait to try it in the morning. Love cranberry!
12:15 am
Sue, love your Nighteyes and those spiders in the jack-o-lantern! 🎃
12:14 am
Thank you Julie.
Your picture is way cool.
12:24 am
I agree! All those eyes are so spooky!
12:50 am
Christine, The cat pictures are really awesome and spooky. The picture Julie posted of the book it really awesome, it looks real!
07:41 am
Agreed! Such a cool picture!
12:55 am
Sue, your Halloween art is so fun! I also love the spiders in the eyes of the jack-o-lantern. 🎃🕸🕷
08:51 am
Colleen, great teapot!!!
12:20 am
Colleen, I LOVE It!! It is a gorgeous teapot!
12:22 am
Lots of clever pictures already! I will have to post a picture in the morning! I am currently in LA drove to down town LA to pick up my daughters friend and take her to the airport and now I’m back in LA dropping my daughter off for a late night movie with other friends. But I’m looking forward to trying this tea tomorrow sounds good.
12:30 am
Watched the Muppets Haunted Mansion tonight and thought of you!
03:07 am
What a great mom! 🤗
11:25 am
Hi my tea friends my picture is Violet cute face.
12:33 am
Violet looks really relaxed today.

Have a lovely Sunday everyone!
01:36 am
You too!
04:39 am
I can't upload for my bday that's a real bummer. I wish i could post something cute but all i have is the wrapper. So much for astheticallly pleasing photos.
01:47 am
Aww that’s okay! Hoping you have an excellent birthday otherwise. 😊🥳
03:10 am
Letti, I wish you a tealicious birthday! 🎈🎁🎂
06:49 am
It's alright! Have a fabulous birthday Letti.
07:33 am
Bummer! But I hope you have a happy bd anyway. 🎉
11:36 am
Lots of eyeballs in today’s tea photos….somebody’s watching me!! 👀
02:00 am
I love that song!!! I always feel like somebody's watching meeeeeeeee!!!
04:29 am
We used to have a boss who would micromanage her corporate employees…we would always hum or sing that song as she walked on by. Lol!
08:08 am
capping my night off with a pot of Ghoul Gulp. It's probably my least favorite from the Wicked Teas set, I still had half a tin from two years ago! It's a shame, because I do like it, just not nearly as much as the others, which I guzzled up.
02:39 am
Does anyone know anything about the new coffee samples on the rewards page? I wonder if Adagio may be partnering with a coffee company in the future 🤔
02:50 am
There was a mysterious machine shown during a tour over Zoom a few weeks ago. Turns out that machine does coffee. 💁🏻♀️
03:01 am
Look at Friday’s chat. I think that Bridgette posted 😁
05:58 am
Honestly, I hope not! I think that there is a difference between coffee culture and tea culture.
08:55 pm
Okay, this tea junkie is officially excited. I got busy and wrote some reviews to earn the remaining rewards points needed. My tea/teaware mystery box is officially ordered! 😊🥳 😊🥳 😊
04:40 am
So exciting!
05:41 am
Yay! Let us know what you get! We like to live vicariously through each other. LOL
03:49 pm
Happy Birthday to both Carrie & Letti. May you both be happy, healthy and enjoy many, many more!
04:42 am
Thank you 😘
04:45 am
Thank u.

☀️ Good Morning Tea Friends ☀️ Wishing everyone a wonderful day 🍁 🍂
05:56 am
Hope you too have a wonderful Sunday Julie P. !!! 🌼☕🌞🌻
07:54 am
You too.
08:01 am
Oh good! A cup of caffeine to start my early Sunday morning .
06:06 am
Michele, great picture ❤️ So true, so very true 😁
06:07 am
It’s a great life being Zen!
09:48 am
Today is handbag day! I am always in search of the perfect, pretty, orgnized, not too big purse! Got lost down the Amazon rabbit hole searching today ;) Do you have a favorite bag? I have several 'almost' ones!
06:33 am
Michelle, my go-to is Vera Bradley On the Go Crossbody. I have that style in numerous patterns and love them all.
06:55 am
so pretty! A websearch showed thred up has some reasonably priced ones too! I am such a sales shopper....
07:09 am
Hi Michelle! Another Vera Bradley fan here! My go-to is the triple zip bag. Love love that one! Since my first one I haven't bought any other bag I just keep getting that one in different colors and patterns.
07:16 am
Off to look it up!
07:57 am
I love Coach and Tory Burch. Both companies always have a bag to suit my needs.
09:36 am
Quality does matter :)
11:39 am
I do not believe I have ever met a handbag or purse that I didn’t like. My closet may possibly reflect that 😂🤣😂
10:04 am
And then you need a pair of shoes to go with each handbag, and each handbag should always have at least a few pennies in it to bring wealth. Those were both taught to my by my Grandma who literally had a different handbag for each pair of shoes she owned and a few coins in each bag.
11:21 am
I forgot that, it was a little caring memory... Off to check for coins!
11:38 am
So many different styles to suit any event;)
11:38 am
I’m not an accessories person so my handbag isn’t a particularly pretty one, but I love it for its utility. I got pickpocketed one vacation so I invested in a Travelon bag. It’s slashproof, RFID blocking, and all the zippers hook onto rings so it can’t be easily opened. It has lots of pockets, but my favorite feature is the side water bottle pockets so I can travel with my tea.
12:04 pm
Those look very good and functional. I don't carry a purse anymore, just a compact zippered wallet with a compartment big enough to hold my phone. It keeps things simple. ☺️
02:35 pm
Leather from Coach. I am fairly close to the outlet so it’s quite reasonable, especially for the quality and longevity, but silver toned metal accents are not easy to come by and my purchases are few over several years.
11:44 pm
It is also father-daughter day ;)
06:34 am
So now I have another temoji...tongue sticking out. Probably will not use that one very often. I am a polite soul.
06:52 am
It comes in handy for "yuck"
08:40 am
I use it when I wanna be silly!
12:05 pm
There, I used it! I can do silly just fine.
04:29 pm
Happy Birthday Carrie 🎉🥳!
07:03 am
yes, Happy Birthday! Hope you have a fun and/or relaxing day!
07:19 am
Thank you...it's going to be fun! NHRA drag races! Relaxing is tomorrow😃

07:04 am
Happy Birthday Lettie! I hope you have a day off for it!
07:19 am
Happy birthday Lettie! Hope your birthday is wonderful!! 🌸☕💜
07:49 am
How do you say boiling? boi-ling or boy-a-ling? I am must be pretty strange, as I counted is three syllables, then two, then three, and had to web check it for my review. My web search history oddly includes many 'how many syllables are in ---? questions. Notably; chocolate (chock-late or choc-o-late), caramel (i.e., carmel or care-a-mel) for examples! And this is another reason why English is so hard!
07:18 am
I say all three with the two syllable pronunciation. I guess it depends on what part of the country you're from or live, or could be passed down in families. I always find it interesting how people say words though! I worked with a lady years ago whose sister was named Caramel, and they pronounced it Carmel.😀
07:42 am
You can say a name however you want, however it is spelled now a days!
11:36 am
Michelle,Wow never thought about it until now. I say all of them in two syllables on some days and other times I use three syllables. Lets not talk about my spelling or grammar, lol.
08:06 am
Google search is my go to ;) I have had many spelling errors, worse is when it is on a sketch towards the end, when I focus on the letters and not the spelling.... Like the best hamster (hampster) debacle!
11:37 am
Boy-a-ling, chock-lit, and carmel. We also pronounce creek as "crick" sometimes
08:42 am
Yup creek or crick!
11:35 am
I grew up in a very rural area where I only ever heard it pronounced "crick". When I went to college in Philadelphia I learned from my friends that some people actually pronounce it "creek"!
02:42 pm
A crick is what water flows through. A creek is what a floor board does when you step on it. 😉
03:51 pm
I’m a two syllable on these. Saves time, lol 😂😘
08:58 am
I have Pennsylvania roots (both sides of parents) so I was raised using 2 syllable pronounciations. The three syllable I use now became a choice. I just like the way the words sound better. Raised to say crick, I now say creek. And flavored sugar water I call pop, although to be clear, those who say soda are also shortening up the complete name. That product is really called a soda pop.
09:01 am
Just like up here in the Finger Lakes of NY
09:26 am
Away from the city...is it rural or rule? No rain..is it drout or drouth?
10:04 am
Also PA roots!
11:35 am
Do you warsh your clothes? Or wash them? Drink warter? Or water?
10:01 am
Wash! But my grandma warshed.
11:07 am
Play the pie ano or pee ano?
11:35 am
Oh my goodness, I hear my grandma’s voice reading that! She warshes. Also says mey-sure, trey-sure, prey-sure… I wonder what other people in CA think of this, where she moved to from the east and has lived most of my life? But I am Philly suburb-raised and have never said wooder or warter.
11:53 pm
So interesting! I'm 3 for boiling and 2 for the others. What about water fountain/ drinking fountain/ bubbler?
10:30 am
A water fountain or drinking fountain works for me. But water fountain also my be a big thing in a park spraying water, A drinking fountain is more specific
11:34 am
I say boi-ling and choc-late, but car-a-mel or car-mel depending on context.
05:46 pm
So does that mean your haikus are not haikus depending upon who reads them or is that artistic license like what rappers use when they rhyme?
11:23 am
Artistic license sounds good ;). It is funny that there are words I say 2 ways, triggering the Google search
11:33 am
I say boiling in two syllables, kind of like boil-ling. Somehow it’s like it has 2 L’s 😁 For chocolate and caramel, I end up with 3 syllable pronunciation. But chocolate comes out more like choc-ca-late and can be more like 2 syllables here and there
12:17 pm
WD
Next up: "soda" vs. "pop" for the title card match!
01:38 pm
Pop
03:05 pm
Followed by pizza vs pie......
03:53 pm
Soda!
04:21 pm
Soda! And Pizza!
04:21 pm
Oops!
04:21 pm
I'm from eastern PA, so soda or coke (generically, no matter the brand). Western PA is pop.
05:44 pm
soda
08:34 pm
Hmm, I say
Bo-ling,
choc-o-late,
care-a-mel.
That last one tends to confuse some baristas, 😂 it seems the two syllable version is much more popular.
02:42 pm
Care a mel sounds fancier :) apparently that is the way to pronounce the food, while carmel is the color
04:43 pm
Good morning everyone! Excited for another crisp fall day
07:22 am
Good morning Stephanie.
07:23 am
Good Morning!
07:41 am
Good morning Carrie, Hippo Birdie 2 Ewe, Hippo Birdie 2 Ewe, Hippo Birdie Deer Carrie, Hippo Birdie two Ewes!
07:49 am
Good morning 🎃🍂🍁
08:37 am
Good morning Julia 😊
10:16 am
Happy and healthy birthday to you Carrie! Have an awesome day celebrating!
08:04 am
Thank you 😘
08:47 am
Happy birthday Carrie!
10:22 am
Thank you 😘
10:54 am
Happy birthday to you Lettie! Have a wonderful day!
08:04 am
I know it was mentioned before, but because I'm really bad at staying in the loop....Are the mystery teas in the rewards always different between person to person, or is it pretty standard?
08:11 am
It varies, but I think if two people order in the same time frame it will be pretty similar just based on what happens to be “extra stock” at that time.
08:33 am
I received some of the Zodiac samplers. I don't know if this was planned or a coincidence, but I received an Aries tin that said "Happy Birthday". I am an Aries....
08:44 am
I am an Aries too. That is a great Chai tea. I have a big tin !
11:12 am
Carrie, I wish you a tealightful birthday full of surprises.
08:16 am
Thank you 😘
08:47 am
Carrie and Letti . This is a very special day for you. May you enjoy every minute of it.
12:10 pm
Thank you!
08:35 pm
The aroma on this is so appealing. I'm so excited to taste it.
08:19 am
That was apple pie in a cup
08:36 am
Yum! Cant wait to try it myself!
08:39 am
Over steeped today's tea.. Blech! 😬 will try a second steep.
08:38 am
I did too. It has a good underflavor though!
08:53 am
My first steep was undrinkable, horribly bitter most likely from the raspberry leaves. Second steep was a little weak, due to the excessive steep first go round, but the flavors were pleasant. May order sample of this one!
10:15 am
Oh no
09:28 am
On vacation, so no control over steep temp. We shall see how this goes!
08:50 am
At least this is a boiling tea so there is that.
09:30 am
I think I overstepped. There wasn’t much flavor to this tea.
09:42 am
Gorgeous cuppa!
09:59 am
I’m loving all the cinnamon teas this month!
10:00 am
I'm pleasantly surprised by this tea. I'm not a big fan of ginger and it's nicely hiding in the background here. Cranberries are nicely forward, but not too tart. Assam keeps everyone smooth and cooperative. Really nice blend. 😁
10:07 am
I’m doing a step challenge this month and am currently staying in a hotel off a highway with nothing to do until about 1. So I’m walking back and forth sipping tea a binging a doctor who marathon. Worse ways to spend a day
10:08 am
Be safe and enjoy ☕️
10:23 am
That sounds amazing! Can I join you? Lol. I definitely need to do some steppin’. Once I finish binging the Sopranos, I’m going to jump back into Doctor Who.
12:02 pm
Love all the beautiful fur babies with their night eyes 😊
10:21 am
Earlier than normal photo today, though a little later than I often post on Sunday (I slept rather late today).
10:22 am
This is nice, but I seem to be getting more apple cinnamon flavor (despite not seeing any actual apple pieces) than cranberry. Also, there seems to be a bit more in the small than the flavor, which for me isn't unusual with flavored teas. I may try sweetening this in a bit.
10:32 am
Same here. To me it was like a watered down hot spiced apple cider. I could get a little berry flavor if I thought really hard about it, but it seemed to be more raspberry leaf than cranberry taste.
02:47 pm
My wife and I both liked this better sweeter. I still don't think I'm getting anything beyond apple cinnamon flavor, but that could juist be a result of what ingredients managed to make it into my packet.
10:43 am
Following up with some Chai Town, since I had my own Chocolate Caramel Chai yesterday. :)
10:56 am
I had your chocolate caramel chai yesterday. It it yummy! Great blend.
04:10 pm
Anybody know if Adagio is open/shipping tomorrow?
11:01 am
I hope so. I have an order placed, although in my defense, it's almost all gifts for other people.
03:53 pm
.
11:04 am
Great tea!
11:09 am
So yesterday my husband pulls a box out of the garage with things that were his mother’s… and it was FULL of tea cups and saucers! I can’t believe these have been in my garage for over a year and I had no idea!! 😱 I feel like I just won the lottery! 🤩
11:14 am
Right there all this time!
11:22 am
Wow!!! Just commented on your pic and now saw your post! They’re gorgeous!!!
11:38 am
You’re all invited for tea - I think I have enough cups now. 😆 🍵 ☕️
12:12 pm
I choose the green one☕️
10:26 pm
What a precious find!
01:36 pm
Wow, what a great find!! Was she a tea lover?
02:48 pm
That's wonderful! So many cute cups!
03:54 pm
Wow, what a find!
04:11 pm
BS
I wish I liked this tea, but too bitter for me
11:15 am
I did enjoy ( very much) the first few sips BUT it became more and more bitter as it cooled. What’s up with that?
12:05 pm
Good morning. Great tea today. Love the subtle hints of ginger and cranberry. I mace fresh cranberry and orange scones. Perfect pair😊
11:15 am
They look so tasty! Love your setup, your tea wear is beautiful!
12:13 pm
Thank you. The recipe I sent you is really good. Light, flaky, with a crispy outside. The orange glaze tops it off.
12:58 pm
Sounds like the perfect scone! I’ll have to try the recipe later. Thank you!
01:08 pm
Oh my mouth is watering, sounds delicious
01:14 pm
Im going to see Let There Be Carnage with the bois for my Bday. Im pumped. LET'S GO !!
11:24 am
Hope you have a great time!!!
08:36 pm
Kristen, beautiful teacups!!!!
11:37 am
Thank you! I can’t believe my luck in getting them 😊
11:58 am
Whow! What a lovely surprize.
12:01 pm
Good Morning my tea friends have a Great Day and enjoy!🫖☕️❤️

I love seeing all the pets today!!
11:57 am
Julia I saw that beautiful scone! I can’t wait to try it. Did you put one in the freezer for me to share with Lilly?
12:00 pm
I’ll make some fresh when you are here😘💕
12:56 pm
Those scones look delicious!
01:35 pm
I’ll send the recipe. You can tweek it fir vegan ingredients.
Me too! But I also really appreciate your mug lol!
12:15 pm
I made my first custom blend last night (based on the blend I usually put together at home to tackle my migraines) and now I'm waiting for it in the mail *bites nails*. Adagio doesn't let you blend straight up turmeric into the blends so I had to go for Turmeric Bliss which has fruits in it, so I'm not sure how well it'll work as a replacement...
12:17 pm
Congrats on your first blend! If you're anything like me, watch out: I got hooked on creating my own blends and have like 28 now. Ha! Blends are like potato chips: no one can have just one!
12:21 pm
Uh oh... *sweats*
12:24 pm
If anyone does make a potato chip blend……please let me know….😂
02:56 pm
Would love to know what you put in it. I also get migraines. :(

How do you guys leave reviews for the daily tea? I'd like to review some of these so that I have a way to go back and track which ones I should order. I'm only seeing the option to review ones I've purchased, not the communitea ones.
12:22 pm
Go alllll the way down on this page and you can review here on the day we drink the tea. Can’t review anything except the current day, so if you miss it, you have to buy to review
12:29 pm
AM
Thank you. That was my problem. I was trying to review the one from yesterday.
12:35 pm
This is my first time posting. I can't tell if my picture is up or not. :)
12:36 pm
I see it! I can’t tell who’s on your mug? I feel like I should know…also. Welcome!
12:37 pm
I didn't know I could respond directly to this post, LOL, so I posted a little further down. In case it got lost, thank you for the welcome and St. Paul is on my mug. :) God bless...

Sharing my somewhat tea related shopping spree finds from yesterday in today's photo. Found some holiday nut pods, some coconut milk caramel sauce and some maple butter to spread on my holiday baked goodies. 😋
12:54 pm
Ooooh, I love nut pods! I didn’t know they have holiday flavors. Gonna have to hunt them down!
01:10 pm
I found them at World Market. Sprouts usually carries them too, but the only holiday flavor they had at mine was Pumpkin Spice for fall. No Christmas flavors there yet. You can probably find them online too.
02:29 pm
Mmm, maple butter! I haven't had that in a long time; thinking of it brings back some delicious childhood memories.
02:58 pm
Yum!!
12:55 pm

All these pet photos are making want one
12:55 pm
I'm sure there a whole bunch at your local shelter who would love to come to your loving home! imagine the tiny life you could save!
11:00 pm
Good flavor, but my sample was light on the raspberry flavoring. Love the spicy tea!
01:02 pm
Nope. Not for me. What is so bitter? It tastes medicinal. I did a short steep at 2 minutes and added creamer. Going to have to dump this one.
01:10 pm
I thought it was pretty bitter too, but adding some honey and a dash of almond milk took the bitterness away and left the cranberry flavor.
01:49 pm
Some of us have a theory that when there is raspberry leaves in black tea that it causes it to be much more bitter. We have noticed this a handful of times now. I usually brew these ones and then chill. The bitterness improves when cold and I think the cranberry flavor also increases when cold.
04:21 pm
Good morning Sunday is my teapot shopping day. Last Sunday I got 14 new ones. Yes I am crazy but it’s ok no death certificate say cause of death to many teapots.
01:11 pm
I love that reasoning… especially as I can apply it to books too.
01:14 pm
I think that reasoning should apply to everything. 😂
02:52 pm
Wonderful haul! Do you make tea in the used ones that you buy? Or do you just use them for decoration?
03:58 pm
AM
So if you subscribe monthly does it charge shipping every month? Or can you add enough to get to the $49 for free shipping? And it you just purchase every month when does it change over to the next month?
01:14 pm
I have a subscription, and if I don't add anything to the order when it gets placed, yes, I get charged shipping because the order total is under the threshold for free shipping. And since I'm subscribed, I'm not sure exactly when the switch-over date is. Considering that the banner here says that with my subscription, orders "will process and ship on the 20th of each month", I'm guessing manual orders would have to start after that, so probably the 21st? However, looking at past orders, they were generally placed between the 10th and 15th, so it's possible that manual orders can be placed somewhat earlier, as long as all subscription orders have gone through. I'm sure there are some month-to-month buyers who could help on this point though.
01:45 pm
AM
So do you have the ability to add any items you like with the option to have it all ship with your CT box?
01:51 pm
I copied this from the Help section: Thanks again for scheduling an automatic delivery of teas. To place one-time additions in the same shipment, simply add the items you desire to your shopping cart. When you have all the items you wish to be added, please select 'Edit Bag / See Recommendations' (below Checkout). Once there look for the 'Add to Future Shipment' option. This will combine the selected items with those you've scheduled earlier, helping you save on shipping. If the combined total is over $49, your items will ship free!
02:14 pm
If you purchase individually every month the 19th is the last day to order for the following month, so presumably on the 20th the next month would be available.
02:53 pm
It is possible to add items to the recurring CommuniTEA orders if you're on a subscription, but I think you have to be quick about it. Adagio tends to process them fairly quickly after placing them, usually locking it down within a few hours on the same day from what I've seen. But if you see the e-mail about the order early enough, you should have time to add some things to it. I think I did that once before.
04:28 pm
Awwww, it's so exciting to see Miss Ninja Marie Fantastic Kitty's tin in Karen's pic today! LOVE!
01:44 pm
She is a most beautiful Kitty and she makes a good cup of tea too !
03:42 pm
so many cute animals in today’s pics! 🥰

Tummy not feeling the best today. Might have to save this one for tomorrow 😕
03:02 pm
So many fur babies on todays picture! I had to post mine and then realized how many others did too!
03:07 pm
Jo, I love those blue and white socks you knitted. They are beautiful!
03:11 pm
Thanks, Lori. I've been appreciating your travel photos. Love them!
04:18 pm
Age, are you watching The Osbornes Want To Believe today on the Travel Channel? They’ve had a mini-marathon going, and there’s a new episode later tonight. Ozzy provides great comedy for the show.
03:16 pm
Absolutely I watch it every week!!! Closer to Halloween there's a special with Jack and Kelly, goung to haunted houses, not sure what day yet, but super excited about that too🖤
11:48 pm
Happy Sunday ya'all!! 🍵
03:33 pm
Happy happy Sunday Beth!
03:53 pm
Love all the fur baby pix!
03:34 pm
Has anyone had trouble uploading photos from their iPhone since the iOS15 update? I find that maybe 50% of the time, my photo upload fails or is stuck spinning and I have to refresh and try again, and when I try to take the photo through the upload function, it means I have to then take a second photo (and sometimes my tea is half gone by then)! I hesitate to say that this is an Adagio-specific problem, as I've been having all kinds of bugs since iOS15. Wish I could downgrade to 14 until they fix it honestly.
03:35 pm
It takes a while to upload photos and I can no longer upload reviews to Facebook. I’ve tried everything on phone and laptop and finally sent screenshots to Adagio. Just got an email that it’s been sent to tech.
04:11 pm
IOS 15 and 15.0.1 have many known issues. Word on IT tech street is to wait for 15.1 to come out within 30 days. If you’ve already switched to 15.0, you can try 15.0.1 and see if that might help. I’m holding at 14.8 on all my Apple devices and waiting on a hopefully stable 15.1.
05:05 pm
Thanks Jim, it's good to know I can (hopefully) expect 15.1 soon, and I also hope they're working on some fixes for WatchOS 8 as my apple watch has been a little goofy since that update as well. It's interesting, my boyfriend has had the beta version of iOS 15 for months now and never ran into the issues that I've had since the regular release... who knows what's going on over at Apple!
05:09 pm
Happy Sunday, Everyone! I hope you are having a tea-riffic day!
03:59 pm
Thanks Jeff! Hope you’re having a fantastic day too!
04:09 pm
You too tea bud!
04:10 pm
U2!!👋🏻
04:20 pm
You also!
04:27 pm
You brew, man. You brew. :D
06:39 pm
Today's teas for us were Sunday specials...Fujian Rain and Ali Shan. Yum.
04:38 pm
I always go to order Ali Shan and then I see the pricetag and say "hmm... next time"... one of these days!
05:04 pm
Chris, it is definitely not an everyday tea for us...we dole it out sparingly.
08:23 pm
It is so worth it though. Save it for a rainy day and it gives great flavor for multiple steeps.
10:37 pm
I have to say, Sue, your drawing today, though stunning as always, is actually a little creepy with all those eyes!
04:50 pm
First post! I'm definitely no aficionado, and the box of samples must have just been a nice freebie packed in along with my tea order, so not sure what I have to offer. But I definitely love this tea. Reading other commenters, I steeped for 3 mins at 212. Tart, fruity, spicy, and 'malty', really satisfying. After tasting it 'naked', I did what I like to do with these fall-flavored teas, and added a little honey and steamed soy milk, and oh my goodness it is just about perfect. yummmmmm
04:51 pm
Welcome to the CommuniTea! Glad u are here and you posted! Its a lot of fun and everyone is so encouraging!

11:31 pm
Hi Constance.
11:57 pm
Just sending some love to my tea friends! I'm so glad to have found this little community. I don't do social media, so you guys are it. I've learned so much and met some really great people here, so thanks y'all, and Adagio! :D
05:20 pm
+1 to that. This has been a great community to join and I have really appreciated all you tea peeps here.
05:52 pm
Not a fan of this tea
05:32 pm
Wicked teas tasting #4: candy apple concoction. Keeping with the fruity theme of today’s tea. I like it, very similar to the regular candy apple. Without brewing both side by side I don’t think I can tell a difference in taste. The red sprinkles make it more festive though.
05:53 pm
I know the answer is out there, but I'm having a hard time finding it, how many cups of tea do you typically get from a 5oz tin of tea(assuming 8 oz of tea each cup) edit: I'm calculating for a friend, not sure of their strength preference.
05:59 pm
The difficulty in figuring that out lies both how much tea you prefer to use per cup and if you weigh it or use volume.
06:27 pm
Also how many steeps you get from one serving of leaves. Estimating, though, on average I usually use 3g leaves to 8oz water and I usually do 2 steeps. With 5oz I’d get 94 cups of tea.

I feel like the fruit flavors in this tea were overpowered by the bitterness for me.
06:15 pm
same. That's the one downside with these individual packets. If the brew goes wrong, there's no real redoing it.
06:30 pm
Hi Evan, try steeping at a lower temperature to reduce the bitterness. With Black tea I usual usually use water between 170 -185 degrees. I never steep at 212!
11:32 pm
I cannot stress enough how much I love this blend!!
06:25 pm
Having this tea a bit late and it's good.
06:34 pm
same here! had a bit of a stretched day yesterday and had to recover. So we’re having an afternoon tea time
06:50 pm
Yum yum!!!
06:51 pm
Wow this smells absolutely lovely opening up the packet. Can't wait for it to cool down to have a sip!
07:00 pm
BB
Hmm, I’m not so sure about this one…
07:06 pm
Loved this tea! very good.
07:27 pm
i hope everyone had a lovely day♥️
07:49 pm
I did, how was yours?
09:14 pm
it was good. it started out rough; i have a mental illness that makes doing stuff hard, but the day improved. i hung out with my bff and her dog, and that always makes everything better ♥️
10:52 pm
It has a bit of a bitter aftertaste, but that could be user error of brewing it too long. I really like the fruit flavors in this tea. I think I'll be adding a sample to my next order.
07:51 pm
This tea is amazing! I absolutely love this flavor combo. It reminds me of a scone.
08:16 pm
This tea is so good! It's a lovely dessert. After an incredibly busy weekend, it gave me a burst of happiness.
08:30 pm
AG
I found this tea to be smooth, not bitter. Liked the fruity flavor. Tried without sugar and then with just a touch of it. I can drink it either way, which is great since I'm trying to reduce my sugar intake.
08:34 pm

Obligatory post from my tablet to keep my streak alive
08:58 pm
let it die, and then resurrect it🧛🏻♀️ (i mean, if it stresses you out, it's not worth the problems it causes your mental health. i give you permission to let it die if that would help you not be stressed ♥️)
10:48 pm

Me too! I’d love to be posting from experience again. Maybe sometime in the near future?
09:06 pm
Good tea. I had pretty long day, and man is this the perfect way to relax, even if its got caffeine.
09:29 pm
Evening, everyone! I had a lovely relaxing day today - went for a drive up in the mountains to see the fall colors (with Nighteyes in my trusty travel mug!), then came home, finished reading my latest book, and now winding down with catching up on some TV shows. I got some lovely shots of the aspen trees, so now I'm trying to decide if I want to post one for tomorrow's picture, or stick with the picture I had planned for almond oolong!
09:31 pm
