Tea leaves and coffee grounds are part of the brewing system for hot beverages. They require a brewing kettle and a heat source to make, which can then be poured into an appropriate drink container.

Tea leaves and coffee grounds come in a variety of flavors. They can be bought at both local town shops and special festival shops. They come in a 20 count tin or in a packet with a single dose.

Note: Tea leaves and coffee grounds are the same script, however the outcome is determined by the flavor of tea leaves or coffee grounds used when brewing them. The appearance inside the packet or tin will also be either "some tea leaves" or "some coffee grounds". Whether they are intended for tea or coffee is also noted in the analyze information of the tin or packet.

Leaves/Grounds

Individual doses of tea leaves or coffee grounds can be removed from a packet or a tin before placed in a brewing kettle. Removing them is an optional step if desired for roleplay purposes. Individual tea leaves and coffee grounds do not indicate the end product's flavor as part of the analyze information, unlike their packet and tin counterparts.

Unlike directly pouring them into a brewing kettle, tea leaves must be removed from a packet or tin before being placed inside a tea infuser.

Analyze

You analyze the tea leaves and sense that the item is free from merchant alteration restrictions.

You get no sense of whether or not the leaves may be further lightened.

Packet

Packets provide a single dose of either tea leaves or coffee grounds when brewed with a kettle.

Analyze

You analyze the parchment packet and sense that the creator has provided the following information:
This is a container to hold brewable coffee grounds.  There is one pinch of coffee grounds in the packet.
The coffee grounds will make coffee with the following flavor messaging:
a) Medium-bodied with a strong hint of chocolate, this is the perfect dessert coffee.
b) Strong notes of chocolate swirl with a medium-bodied coffee, and the slightest hint of vanilla tempers the sweetness.

You get no sense of whether or not the packet may be further lightened.
You analyze your peach parchment packet and sense that the creator has provided the following information:
This is a container to hold brewable tea leaves.  There is one pinch of tea leaves in the packet.
The tea leaves will make tea with the following flavor messaging:
a) The dusky taste of the tea itself tames the sweet peachy flavor that rides in the forefront.
b) If not for the dry quality of the black tea, the accompanying peach flavoring would be overwhelmingly sweet.

You get no sense of whether or not the packet may be further lightened.
