Thursday Tea Time


Holiday Time!
Cost: $2.99 at Whole Foods, on sale at Target $1.77

Number of teabags: 20 - individually sealed in attached double paper bags

Caffeine: No

Type of tea: Green

Steeping time: 4 - 6 minutes

Double Dipper potential: Yes, just let it set a couple extra minutes.

Mix ins: Sugar and milk

Teabag fragrance: CANDY CANES!

Ingredients: Peppermint leaves, decaffeinated green tea, orange peel, natural vanilla and mint flavors with other natural flavors, cinnamon, milk thistle, blackberry leaves, roasted carob, roasted chicory and vanilla bean.

Taste: Really tastes just like a candy cane. Nice and smooth - must be the vanilla and the blackberry leaves with a touch of cinnamon gives it an interesting flavor layer.

My opinion: Great way to get your candy cane fix without looking like dweeb with a candy cane sticking out of your mouth...or setting it down and getting stuff sticky...or busting all your crowns trying to chew them!

Rating: 5 teabags out of 5. Another "Hurry, stock up before they are all gone" and you have to wait until next year!
