From DAVIDsTEA

Twinkle, twinkle

This deep dark Chinese tea is like a gorgeous starry night, glimmering with gold and silver sugar crystals that shimmer as they steep. Take a sip and the slow suggestion of cinnamon will warm your body. Your toes will tingle and your mind will turn to fireworks, falling stars, late-night seduction. It’s basically magic. (Is it getting hot in here, or is it just the tea?)

Ingredients: Black tea, lemon peel, sugar sprinkles (sugar, rice flour, partly hydrogenated canola oil, shellac, titanium oxide, iron oxide, potato starch), sugar, cloves, natural and artificial flavouring.

Not bad, not bad. It smells incredible and it makes the water shiny and glittery. It tastes a lot like cinnamon and it’s quite sweet.

One of my favourite teas! It’s delicious AND sparkly! Got it as a Christmas gift from a friend and was delighted.

Smells very strongly of cinnamon in the tin, but mellows out nicely in the cup. Tastes rather like those cinnamon hearts you get around Valentine’s Day. Sadly when you add milk you can’t see how it sparkles.

This tea makes me all sorts of happy. The cinnamon note really does stand out and it almost tastes like a liquid cinnamon heart. Also a huge bonus that the tea sparkles when it steeps.

This tea reminds me vaguely of pumpkin chai, in that the cinnamon flavor is really gross, like it rotted, almost. I’ve made this several times, and even with sweetener I can’t choke down a full cup.
