Lifting some text from the label: A long steep is worth the wait for this classy and unique dessert tea! Tart apples, rich walnuts, and sweet marshmallows combine to create a flavor reminiscent of apple cake. Guess how long the recommended steep is: 25 minutes! I thought it might be a misprint, but after checking out the packet contents, which look exactly like the photo, I decided to give it a long bath while I was taking one myself.
It performed exactly as advertised: tart, juicy apple tempered by marshmallow and nuts. We’re still doing the summer-autumn temperature teeter-totter and today tilted toward summer, so a slightly cooler evening cuppa didn’t hurt.
This is going to be a lovely autumn evening beverage, but only for those rare ones when you’re not in a hurry.
Do you think it would still be good if the marshmallows were picked out? It sounds delicious but I’m not big on marshmallows.
Yes, I think it’d still be tasty—apple nut compote with less sweetening.
