So who here is a big tea fan? My friends call me a tea snob because I only drink tea from tea leaves. There are only some tea bags that I will drink. Mostly the Tazo Tea brand from Starbucks.
I want to hear people's tea stories and tea reviews What is your all time favourite tea? Where do you go buy your tea? What tea are you drinking today? How do you prepare your tea?
My two favourite Tea Shops are DavidsTea and Teaopia. I switch between the two stores and haven't decided which one I like best. Both I believe are Canadian companies but they ship anywhere in North America.
I mostly drink green, oolong and jasmine tea. I simply love white tea, but these are a bit pricey (double the price of the other tea), so I only drink them on special occasion.
Right now, I'm drinking a tea call 'Read My Lips', from DavidsTea, its a black tea with peppermint and dark chocolate.
The tea appearance is very cute and is just a sight for your eyes with the little red candy lips and chocolate chips mixed in with the black tea and peppermint leaves. I was quite surprise to find that the tea was not sweet at all. When you take a sip you don't really taste the chocolate but you smell it. Where the tea shine is the peppermint that has a cool lingering feel in your mouth after each sip. This tea is like a soft kiss that gets more passionate with each sip. I didn't think I'd like the tea with the first sip as the taste was completely new to me. With each sip, the tea got better and better. I could never imagine liking chocolate tea but I must say I really enjoy this one. It has definitely open my eyes to chocolate inspired tea.
Cheers,
Roze
