I started doing Jenny Craig again on Wednesday and while I am on top of things, the one exception I make is for teas. For instance, this tea has a lot of sugar and marshmallows in it so it’s maybe not the most diet friendly but at the end of the day, I doubt it’s doing that much harm so I’m just enjoying it. Plus, I have to have two servings of milk per day and a latte allows me to get that serving in. So I am just enjoying my teas as I always would while trying to make healthier food and exercise choices.
This is making for a nice treat. Lots of caramel notes from the rock sugar with marshmallow and distinctive sweet potato flavour. I’m happy that this is once again really enjoyable and the first latte wasn’t just new tea excitement that had me rating it so highly. Thank you again Roswell Strange for sharing this with me!

Oh geez, if I tried to account for tea in my diet I’d be ruined! As it is, my diabetes prevents me from drinking a bunch of things, so I have to BS myself into thinking that chocolate and caramel teas don’t contain sugar. I’m pretty sure there’s a reason I’ve always neglected to take my Blood Glucose after a session of Skele-Gro or Tiger Eye, and I don’t see that trend ending any time soon!
While I can’t speak for other companies, DT gets nutritional testing done from a third party company for all of the tea blends and IIRC even the blends with sprinkles, chocolate, marshmallows and what not tend to test pretttyyy low for sugar/calories (though obviously there are some). I don’t know if you want to open that can of worms Shanie O Maniac but you could probably look for the most comparable DT blend, using the NFTs on the website, if you were curious?
