Description

Crisp black tea with chili and chocolate

Chai lovers and spice lovers will flip for this spicy black tea with New Mexican flavor. Tart tannins jump across the tongue in the first sip. Sweet cinnamon, smoky chili, and salty chocolate notes rise and fall with the steadiness of a piano scale. We recommend milk for a rich and spicy morning tea. If Mexican hot chocolate was a tea, this would be it.

INGREDIENTS: ceylon black tea, cocoa husk, cinnamon, chili, safflower petals, flavoring

TASTES LIKE: dried pasilla chili, mexican cinnamon, cacao
FEELS LIKE: a sedona sunset
