Thursday Tea Time

This week - Stash Vanilla Chai Decaf BlackTea

Cost: $2 on sale at Kroger, regular price $2.59

How could this not hop into my cart? The box description reads "Natural vanilla adds rich and creamy flavor notes for a luscious dessert-like drink" Huzzah!

Number of teabags: 18

Caffeine: No

Type of tea: Black

Steeping time: 5 minutes

Double-Dipping potential: Yes, 6 minutes

Mix ins: Milk and sugar, milk and honey. Both combos work and taste great!

Teabag fragrance: Very pleasant - cardamon and ginger

Ingredients: Naturally decaffeinated black tea, vanilla flavor, ginger root, cinnamon, allspice, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon flavor, cardamon oil, clove oil

Taste: Smooth, creamy, soothing. The fragrance is heavenly. You taste more of the cardamon and vanilla and a touch of cinnamon when the tea is brewed. It's not peppery at all like other chai teas.

Opinion: DELICIOUS! This is definitely my "Tea of the Week". Each night I've been preparing a mug of this after dinner to keep me away from dessert. This is better and healthier substitute! Bonus it is decaf, too.
