Opinion: The Oasis Juice Bar carries an extensive selection of Art of Tea teas. I especially like that I can take one for a test drive. Though I must say, each one I have tried, I've bought. I love coconut and I love chocolate and this tea combines both. It is not overly sweet, but bonus you do not have to add any sweetener. The coconut is more of an afternote and the chocolatey-ness doesn't overwhelm. Just a nice energizing boost to the day. I used a heaping teaspoonful in my Rishi tea filter bag, which expanded and gave plenty of flavor. Not a tablespoonful as the website suggested. Good grief! That has to be a typo. Pu-erh tea is post-fermented tea, it is aged longer. However, all the more reason to find and use a newer "Best by" date. Some studies are showing that pu-erh tea can help lower cholesterol and triglycerides.
