Dragonwater Rooibos Chocolate Mint
Tea Review
An Ideal After-Dinner Tea That Combines
Chocolate & Mint
Summary : Like chocolate? Like mint? Then I have a
tea for you. This superb tea from the
Dragonwater Tea Company
nicely combines chocolate and mint to produce a flavor that is remarkably
similar to chocolate mint candies! This is a sweet-tooth lovers delight...in
a tea.
Review : And so the snow finally began. They've only
been predicting it for the past few days...only to never show up. But
finally...it is snowing here in the Biggest Little City in the World...also
known as Reno, Nevada.
With all the snow and cold weather...so un-Reno like in late February...I
suddenly found myself in the mood for something with chocolate in it. And
there, sitting on my cupboard, was a very enticing tea from the
Dragonwater Tea Company
called Chocolate Mint...a Rooibos Tea.
Chocolate and mint...what a always pleasant combination. And so, I ripped
open the top of this tea and gave it a try.
This roobios tea contains the following ingredients : "Rooibos with chocolate
pieces and peppermint leaves."
Well...talk about an aromatic punch. Wow...a super strong aroma of chocolate!
Always a good sign in a chocolate tea. And the aroma of the mint was awfully
strong too. And mixed together...well...let's just say I forgot about the
crappy weather we are having for a few moments in time.
Now, let's talk about flavor. Do you really need to know? The tea has a wonderful
flavor of both chocolate and mint! What else?
Actually, the best way to describe the teas flavor is to use chocolate mint
candy as an analogy. You know, those chocolate candy pieces that have green
mint in them? Well...if you enjoy those candy pieces...it's a sure bet that
you'll adore this tea...as it tastes remarkably similar to those chocolate
mint candies.
The after-taste of the tea is also superb. The tea has a nice, but not very
strong flavor of both chocolate and mint that tends to linger around surprisingly
long.
When brewing this tea, one thing of note...let it brew for 8-10 minutes, as
the flavor of the tea is stronger. Additionally, as the leaves are very small,
be prepared to find some leaves that slip through the infuser during the brewing
process.
Overall...if you and chocolate and mint are an "item," I have no doubt you'll
love this tea. Indeed...anyone who has a sweet-tooth is bound to like this
tea...as it is a perfect cure for those who love chocolate but who want to
avoid the heavy calories and tooth decay that goes with it!
Recommendation : Absolutely. If you love chocolate, or mint...or
better yet both combined...this tea has your name ALL OVER IT. This is a very
tasty tea with a strong flavor of chocolate. And as it is a chocolate mint
tea...it also makes a splendid after-dinner tea too. So if you like chocolate
and mint...head on over to the
Dragonwater Tea Company
to pick some up...you won't regret it!
