Backlog from last night.
My hubby and I were at the Eaton Centre yesterday and each got a hot tea to go. I decided to have this because it was the tea of the day and I liked the sample that I sipped. My husband, who generally doesn’t go for tea, was feeling adventurous and got an egg nog latte with Cinnamon Chai Rooibos. (He liked it! He liked it so much, in fact, that today he got an egg nog latte with Birthday Cake rooibos when he was out visiting a friend. Could this be the thing to convert my tea-agnostic hubby into a true believer? One can hope!)
Anyways.
I never thought I would go for a tea with banana in it, because I generally dislike banana-flavoured things if they aren’t made of fresh banana (eg: banana candy). But this was really true to its namesake: I tasted, bananas, nut, a hint of vanilla, and this nice pastry/bread note.
What’s really amazing to me is that although this tea uses almonds, it tasted like hazelnuts. I really like hazelnuts but rarely get a chance to try them in tea.
I wouldn’t mind having some of this to keep in my cupboard. And it turns out that this may be the case, since today we got a David’s Tea box in the mail with my husband’s name on it. I wonder what he could possibly be doing with such a purchase. ;-)
Mmm, eggnog lattes. ;)
