Morning in Giverny

Beauty is to be sought, reveled in, painted. Behold a beauty in the delicate richness of a cup of black tea from Ceylon, with an elegant taste as if a drip of amber honey graced the leaves as they steeped. Such a tea would surely have been an inspiration for Monet, had he tasted its beauty. Full-bodied and traditional, complement its sweet finish with brown sugar and milk.
