Opinion: I had read about this tea in The Steeping Room restaurant reviews, wherein it was the accompaniment tea. I don't know how I overlooked this in the sales display -- it has everything that rings my bells - Cocoa, coconut, chai, yerba mate, vanilla. And it it does! I had brewed mug and got distracted, so I poured it plain over ice for iced tea - WOW! Hot, I like it with a little splash of Califia Vanilla Almond Milk and just a little bit of honey. (Those seeds Clint at Hooked on Acupuncture put in my ears to help reset carb and sugar cravings really, really work!). It has a nice chocolate flavor and then gives you a warming kick...And a nice buzz for awhile. A tea to enjoy in the present and to get things done later!
