Thursday Tea Time


This week -The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Limited Edition Chocolate Rose

Cost: $8.20
Number of teabags: 20
Caffeine: Yes
Type of tea: Ceylon Black
Steeping time: 5 minutes
Mix ins: Hot with a little milk and sugar, or CBTL's French Vanilla Powder. Iced with a little bit of sugar
Teabag fragrance: Milk chocolate with a faint rose scent
Ingredients: Ceylon black tea, heather flower, pink rose petals, natural and artificial flavoring
Opinion: Hot, its a little blah without adding in a bit of milk and sugar. The taste is mild, but with a nice chocolate scent and flavor. You can see the rose petals and heather buds in the teabag, too. A great mid-afternoon pickup or after-dinner treat. I think the other chocolate flavored teas I've reviewed previously have a stronger flavor. But this is still nice and worth buying and trying yourself. Bonus that CBTL is a sponsor of and will donate part of the sale proceeds to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
Rating: 3.75
