fun new coffee experiment!!
Tumblr media
i went to a flower nursery with my mom today and decided to pick a rose head from one of the big bushes, and now i dont actually know what to do with it and its dying!!
solution: make it into a strange concotion!!! :D
hypothesis: if i make this, then itll taste pretty good, and also give me magical powers and prove im a witch of some sort
I decided to decimate the petals with a coffee grinder and throw it into one of those little metal reusable k cups since we got one a those and ran it with water, and now ive turned it into this pleasantly pink drink!!
Tumblr media
and actually quite quickly as of typing this its now turned into this brownish tea-like thing, which im not sure if its because of the ground residue in the coffee grinder or the heat, but oh well!!
actually, to note: when i removed the petals from the k cup, they were essentially just this dead grey mass of planty mush, which i think its kinda interesting because i thought the juices were just sucked into the water, but i guess theyre alive still? or something, idk im not a botanist
Tumblr media
after that i added it to about 8oz of fireside rum coffee that i kept from christmas (since its a flavor im familiar with), and added the 2 brews together
as a control, i probably shouldve tried the flower mix on its own, but my mom called me out to yardwork and i got distracted, so i just dumped in in with the coffee, but i will try it without any other additives just to see if the flavors any good
Tumblr media
ok so it tastes like this weird mix of like a mysterious herb, kinda like a mix of basil and mint, and kinda like sweet tea, and black coffee, which i dont even drink coffee black so i dont actually know why i did that.
when the light hits it right though its got the weird pinkish highlight to it which is pretty sick
anyway i added a bit of creamer and tastes a little herby, but its slightly cold because i left while making it
conclusion: solid 6/10 needs more eye of newt or something like that
