I don't have a preferred seasonal drink and regardless of the season, I always look for these two, matcha latte or loose-leaf tea. Otherwise, I'll just pick whatever is available in the cafe, either tea or coffee. Preferably, I like tea combinations in one cup.

What you tell us is interesting, I also like tea and when it's very hot I drink it cold, to cool off. I found "matcha latte" very striking, apparently it's a traditional drink, you'll say.

Thanks for leaving your comment.
Happy weekend.

The tea is delicious. I love it especially in the evenings with lemon and nutmeg.
I hope you enjoy your drink.

There isn't a special flavor in your photo that I would like to order. But I guess I would choose latte hehe.

I haven't tried the nutmeg tea, a suggestion I'm going to try, you can always try new things.

Thanks for leaving your comment.☕

I don't think I've had nutmeg in my tea ever. That must change! I feel intrigued now. I think it be nice with black tea perhaps; I can start from there 😁

Nutmeg with lemon seems to me to be a good combination 👍🏽

I love nutmeg and I always used the fresh one in Jamaica by grating it. However, when I lived in the Philippines, it was hard to get and even the ground one was more expensive than the other spices. I've only ever had nutmeg with coffee, never with tea. It sounds good though:)))

Here in Venezuela it is very economical and is available in the market. When I lived in Cuba I could not get the spices I like and when someone sold it was very expensive. That's why I like to take advantage of having them at home when I get them.

Oh, I will try it for sure. When I like my coffee a little spicy, I usually add a bit of cardamom.

I'm intrigued. I have some nutmeg, but I've only used it for coffee and hot cocoa so far.

I usually put nutmeg in creams and custards but I have never tried it in tea or coffee. But I will since I am also intrigued to see how it tastes.

And for cakes, sure. Also, white sauces and pastries, and a lot more but never in my tea.

I only use nutmeg for the chicha de arroz and in the bechamel sauce, but it would be interesting to use it in the tea.

I also like tea in the afternoons, but have never tried it with nutmeg. I have been left restless, I think I will have to drink it. Regards @chacald.dcymt

Hi Jane (@jane1289).
Your choice is very good.
I drink tea when it is very hot and it must be extremely iced and at the same time it must be strong.

Although I prefer coffee in general, I've been ordering matcha latte more often than I thought I would. I find it to be so satisfying that I don't need to order a cup of coffee after it, which is what actually happens after I have tea in a coffee shop 😁

Tea combinations sound cool. We often pick hibiscus + lemongrass and add some drops of fresh lemon juice.

Hibiscus tea seems to be popular in Venezuela. I keep mixing up the hot and cold way, but one way increases the blood pressure and the other lowers it. I would have to look on line to see which is which.
Yeah, I like it with lemon too:)

Oh, I didn't know there was a difference. I can tell you we drink it a lot both hot and cold and we're still alive and kicking. I'll find out about that. Thank you!

And yes,. it is popular here because it's healthy, delicious, cheap and refreshing. I have some flowers in the freezer, but most of the time I buy the leaves.

What is a loose leaf tea? Is that some sort of prepration technique? Sorry for my incompetence about the tea consumption… 😁

Anyway, matcha latte is always good, when prepared well. Best wishes!

No, places like Taiwan with many tea farms use dried tea leaves and a strainer to make their tea. It's just larger particles of the tea leaves that are not ground, that are used to make the tea. Sometimes they place them in bags too, but it's common to just make the tea with the dried leaves:)

Now I see… thanks a lot! Tea has a lot more secrets for me, compared to coffee and this is obvious. 😁

We usually buy tea bags in the market. But to have a better flavor we buy the leaves dried in bulk at the market. It is more economical and I like it. I have these strawberry-shaped filters, I open it and inside I put the loose and dried leaves I want, I put them in boiling water, let it sit for 3 minutes and that's it. A delicious tea

Wow! I've never seen such a pretty tea filter. The design is unique and clever, in that the leaf stem serves as a spoon. Very nice 😍

Nice filter, it is also very practical to avoid the remains of the leaves in the tea.

I know what it is, but I didn't get it at the beginning and I didn't want to ask. I'd rather wait until someone else asked the question.

I do love a good Matcha latte too, it's decadent and a real treat. Not something that I have often though. When I have tea, it's most times loose leaves as well. It might not necessarily be the seasons, but when I'm in the tropics, I drink loose tea leaves for iced tea daily. Sometimes with lemon and at others just plain and unsweetened. However, I have my black coffee all year round in the mornings:)

For me in a cafe is usually a cappuccino. Tea is not very popular here although I love it, but it's been a long time since I've been able to find a good place here to have a good cup of tea.

Matcha lattes are a fav of mine! Matcha is so energizing and refreshing— I enjoy mine iced with some sort of alt milk, particularly coconut milk!

The spot in your photo looks like a cozy place to enjoy a cup of tea 😁
