This week - Pukka Licorice & Cinnamon Organic Herbal Tea
Cost: $6.99 at Whole Foods Market (Arbor Trails), Austin, Texas
(Also online at Amazon)
Number of teabags: 20
Caffeine: No
Type of tea: Herbal
Steeping time: 5-6 minutes
Add ins: Actually none needed! This tea stands alone just fine. Hello iced tea! Though the Natural Bliss Vanilla and Sweet Cream make this a great tea latte, too.
Tea fragrance: Cinnamon
Ingredients: Licorice root (25%), cocoa bean, roasted chicory root, cardamom seed, cinnamon bark (15%), fennel seed.
Opinion: Fortunately I have a hubby who indulges my crazy tea searches, and checking out grocery stores/different Whole Foods, and he likes licorice - so he found this, and I'm glad he did. This is really, really good! First you get the cinnamon kick and then the two-seconds later punch of licorice. Wow! And no caffeine so I can have this after dinner to effectively dismiss my dessert/carbing desires. Pukka makes great teas - see my earlier blog post for their Green Chai And bonus they are all organic, too.
