CuppaGeek Advent Calendar, December 14

Those Christmas sticks aren’t a thing here; and that said, I never had it before so I have no idea how they suppose to taste like.

But this tea is strongly peppermint with mellow creamy flavour. It was that peppermint strong I was thinking I am emitting ice which was confusing when drinking a hot tea. I must say I kinda liked it, though again the base wasn’t much noticeable.

Flavors: Creamy, Peppermint

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 4 min, 0 sec 10 OZ / 300 ML

Wow—the things I take for granted in the States—no candy canes or peppermint sticks?

Martin that ‘emmiting ice’ feeling is from the menthol.

Courtney

It is so bizarre what we think just exists everywhere!

Cameron B.

Would love to hear if there are any traditional holiday candies! :D

Martin Bednář

No, no peppeprmint sticks nor candy canes here.
White Antlers oh yeah, I forgot it while writing the note. It was interesting and confusing.

Courtney: I can imagine :D
Cameron B.: Well, there are so called “Vánoční kolekce” where are different chocoalates filled with different flavours, including eggnog, hazelnut crémes and similar. Then there are “arabesky” — half dipped jello in chocolate, with different flavours. Maybe there are more, but not sure now as we don’t buy them. Of course I can’t miss out Christmas cookies; there are so many types.

Cameron B.

Those both sound delicious! And the arabesky look so cute! :3

Courtney

The vánoční kolekce sounds so tasty! Similar to ‘Pot of Gold’ or my favourite as a child: ‘Quality Street’ here, except far more holiday-flavoured!
