hello, i’m cups… and this is just a little rant.
When I was a kid, I didn’t really drink tea or coffee (thank goodness) but as I grew older, I decided to settle with coffee. Coffee was great, it was energising, and then getting off it was surprisingly … normal? I mean, sure - after drinking so much, I got a little exhausted when I was off it but it was shockingly normal. Not some random internal power outage or anything, it was like removing a tiny part of my routine.
Enough about the coffee talk. Today, we’re here about something much more interesting. I used to hate tea. In fact, I thought tea was boring and bland. My past me would’ve said that “tea was just a bunch of leaves mixed with water”, and while that is right, there’s just more depth to drinking it than what you can see.
Past me would’ve hated me now. Drinking tea like there’s nothing wrong with it. But present me thinks it’s great. Especially fruit teas.
Since I’ve been sick for the past few days, I have been given a few variants of tea with my favourite being honey lemon tea. The taste is just absolutely fulfilling, with a sweet yet lemon-y taste to it.
Anyway, it’s a sharp turn. Moving from one side to another. It’s pretty interesting seeing how me from many years ago and me now has a lot of differences, both in wisdom and drink preferences.
