I worked on my first Kickstarter and it got approved! It’s for the Special Edition Hardcover of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 1: Archer and the release of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7: Spinster. I contacted my graphic designer about the Special Edition Hardcover of vol. 1: Archer—it’s going to be SO beautiful! The Kickstarter focuses on the Special Edition Hardcover, but it’ll also include vol. 7: Spinster so that it’ll sort of be like a launch day for vol. 7, too. A third special thing that’ll be in the Kickstarter is Special Edition Paperbacks of all the books in the series. They won’t be available in stores, just in the Kickstarter (and later, from my website, and also in my Patreon book box tiers if I decide to do them). The Kickstarter is not live yet, but you can follow it to be alerted when it has launched. (You may need to create a free Kickstarter account.) Follow Camy’s Kickstarter
Today’s tea from my Tea Advent Calendar is Arabica Mocha. I tried this tea before, and I think I liked it. The arabica is coffee leaves, which if I remember correctly does have a little bit of caffeine.
The tea contains arabica tea, toasted mate tea, chicory, cocoa nibs, natural chocolate flavor, natural hazelnut flavor, and safflower. I think that the mate tea contains caffeine, so this is definitely not a low caffeine tea. I could smell the chocolate and hazelnut as soon as I opened the packet, and it smelled like Nutella.
I steeped it for 5 minutes in 8 ounces of 212ºF hot water.
Unsweetened, it tasted to me just like toasted tea, maybe with a hint of cocoa. I added almond milk and sugar and it tasted delicious. Either it’s the arabica or the mate or the chicory, but there’s a faint grassiness to it, however I mostly taste the toasted flavor with the faint hint of chocolate and hazelnut. A nice, warming cup of tea.
