Thursday Tea Time - Double Chocolate Down

This week - The Republic of Tea Double Dark Chocolate Mate


Cost:  $10.99 at Central Market and Whole Foods
Number of teabags: 36
Caffeine:  Yes
Type of tea:   Herbal/Yerba Mate
Steeping time:  7 minutes
Add ins:  Fat-Free Half & Half and Sweet Bliss
Tea fragrance:   Dark chocolate chips!
Ingredients:   Organic roasted carob, organic roasted yerba mate, organic natural dark chocolate flavors, organic natural cocoa, natural cocoa flavor, organic natural chocolate extract and organic chicory
Opinion:   Wow!  I've been wanting to try a Yerba Mate and I sure picked a good one!   Not only is it good tasting, but good for you with all the antioxidants, and we all know that chocolate is good for you, too.  This tasted great all by itself without any sweetener.  A splash of fat-free half & half just made it even better.   I'm glad (and surprised) there are 36 teabags for the price.
Rating:  5
Of course!

Choco-love!
