This week - The Art of Tea "Chocolate Monkey"
Number of teabags: 3.5 ounces (99.2g), per the website makes approximately 45 cups
Caffeine: Yes, just a little from the chocolate
Type of tea: Tisane/Herbal/Red
Steeping time: 7 minutes
Add ins: Natural Bliss Sweet Cream. Though with a little touch of sugar and served iced would be wonderful, too!
Tea fragrance: Chocolate! Then spicy/fruity
Ingredients: Organic Fair Trade South African Rooibos, Organic South African Honeybush, Organic Cacao Nibs, Organic Apple Bits, Organic Banana Bits, Organic Pink Peppercorn, Ground Chocolate* (sugar, cocoa-processed w/alkali, unsweetened chocolate, soy lecithin, vanilla), Natural Flavors
Opinion: I think there was a reason there was only one canister tin left, and I got it! What a beautiful-looking tea, too! I didn't really taste the banana, which is good. Mostly chocolate-y/spicy. I would drink this in the afternoon or after dinner - it kept me from rummaging through the Easter basket remains. While it is fortunate you can find this online, and in different sizes -- if you are in Galveston or even thinking about it, this is a great reason of many to stop into the Oasis Juice Bar, which is just around the corner from one of my favorite yoga studios, The Yoga Haven. (Bonus if you are cruising out of Galveston, they are blocks away from the cruise ship dock terminals!) They have several of the Art of Tea tins, including a coconut which I had iced. Wow! I'm going back for that one, too.
