Pair this book with Peaches and Cream Oolong Tea

Craving the sun-drenched sweetness of summer peaches and cream, no matter the season? This delightful loose leaf tea captures that nostalgic flavor in every cup. Blended woodsy oolong and robust black tea to create the perfect, sturdy base for juicy, ripe peach notes laced with soft, creamy vanilla essence. Apple and apricot pieces add depth to the fruitiness, while golden calendula petals hint at the sunny disposition within. It's rich, comforting, and brews into a beautiful amber liquor. As the name suggests, it takes beautifully to a splash of milk and a touch of sugar for the full peaches-and-cream effect!
