I'm sipping NUMI's organic Pu-erh Tea.
The box informs that "Puerh is an ancient healing tea picked from 500 year old organic wild trees in Yunnan, China. Puerh has more antioxidants than most green teas...This velvety infusion combines black Puerh tea and organic cocoa. Accented by whole vanilla beans and sweet orange peel, this decadent blend is rounded off with a nutmeg and cinnamon finish."
It's a dose of warm, comforting, rich chocolate at zero calories. Can't beat that. NUMI's Chocolate Puerh is more pricy than the others, at $8.99 for 18 tea bags, but many of us spend $4-5+ for a cup or tea or coffee anyway. It's worth it. The only problem is, after finishing a cupful, I crave a chunk of the not-so-healthy stuff.
On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being perfect, I give NUMI's chocolate tea an 8.
Note: NUMI's isn't paying me to advertise their product, though they might consider it.
Stay warm, and have a great Thursday.
Chocolate tea? I am not a big tea drinker, but I might have to try this. Iced of course. But not Southern style. (Two parts sugar to one part water.)
ReplyDeleteYUM! Sounds wonderful. I love teas. Chocolate tea? Heck, why not?
ReplyDeleteHave you tried that Nutella? I got a snack pack the other day with mini-bread sticks and a dab of Nutella. Dee-lish.
Robyn...I want you to do me a favor, please. On your "Grab some chocolate" gadget in the upper left corner of your blog, there's an HTML code container box.
Can you copy that code for the box and send it to me? Please? I've been looking all over the place to see how to put those up.
Just go into "Edit Gadget" and copy it for me...I'll personalize it (take out all your info and input mine). Thanks!
Mike
Never knew about chocolate tea, actually sounds really good to me
ReplyDeleteLOL. I haven't tried that tea. Do you get it in specialty food stores, or big superstores? And yes, they should pay you for your review. ;0
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they do caramel?
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge tea drinker, but I've never heard of chocolate tea. I'd definitely give it a try. And like Momma Fargo said, where do you find this? I've never seen this in any store I've ever been to - grocery store, specialty food store, or otherwise.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big tea drinker and love hot chocolates and mochas so the concept of tea with chocolate infused in an amazing one and I really want to try it out.
ReplyDeleteI'm not much of a tea drinker but you haven't led me astray before, so I'll consider giving this a shot. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi, all,
ReplyDeleteSorry I forgot to mention where I bought it: Nob Hill/Raley's. It's probably not at Safeway, but I'm guessing you can find it anywhere that sells NUMI tea.
Alex, I never heard of Southern style. I like the formula.
Mike, sure. And I love nutella, so I don't buy it. It wouldn't last more than a few minutes in my cupboard.
Pat, it is pretty good. I never saw it before either.
MommaFargo, see above. Thanks.
LDiane, caramel sounds really good too. I'll have to keep an eye out for that one.
B&B, I'm sure you can find it in your whereabouts at Raley's/Nob Hill (which may just be in CA, I'm not sure). At any rate, check out stores that carry NUMI - mid-sized stores (neither specialty nor big superstores).
Cheers, everyone.

chocolate tea? haven't heard of that..i reall want to try it out. what a coincidence! i'm now having a cup of tetleys tea!mmmm..
ReplyDeletexoxo
My kids love this with a teaspoon of sugar. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this.
ReplyDeleteBut if you're pouring...
Pearl
I've recently been hearing about chocolate teas and I'm intrigued. Will definitely have to try it.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd like to suck one of those teabags. Just to get the measure of it.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great, and I'll be on the look out for it. I'm sure I'll also have more cravings, so I'll keep chocolate chip cookies within reach.
ReplyDeleteJulie
Chocolate tea makes chocolate pee.
ReplyDeleteThink I'll have a cup.
Of tea.
Which, I would think, goes without saying.
This sounds heavenly. Thanks for the tease. Like I'll ever be able to find this on my tiny island in the Caribbean.
ReplyDeleteA friend has been teasing me with Chocolate wine, which is available down here, but I haven't tasted it yet. I'll let you know.
Now, that definitely sounds like something I'd like to try!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of chocolate tea. Wonder how that tastes iced?
ReplyDeleteI love tea, particularly the herbal stuff - but I cant say I'd go chocy.
ReplyDeleteAt least youre being true to your blog title.
;)
xo
I wouldn't mind trying that
ReplyDeleteI drink a lot of tea every day, but I've never tried chocolate tea. But I like chocolate just about anything else, so why not tea, too? I'll look for it the next time I'm in Trader Joe's.
ReplyDeletean unusual concept - I'd give it a go but doubt if you could find it round here xo
ReplyDeleteI should know better than to visit your blog when I'm trying to diet. This looks fantastic. And of course now I have no choice but to try it. :D
ReplyDeleteJulie, it's calorie-free. But it will get you craving the real thing real quick.
ReplyDeleteDavid, I imagine you could. Let me know if you do.
Susan, right. Why not? I like your attitude!
Adam, it's worth a try.
Anthony, I understand and like you anyway.
MsA, it probably needs a bit of sugar but I think it'd be good iced.
Annalisa, yes. I hope you find it.
Faraway, I've had chocolate wine before. It was a wonderful port, Rosenblum Cellars. Do keep me posted, and let me know what kind it is. I may have to review it here.
Be well and have a warm weekend, all.
xoRobyn
I like a good tea but believe it or not never considered a chocolate flavor...might have to give it a try
ReplyDeleteAl, I missed your pee poem, I see
ReplyDeleteWhat could be wrong with chocolate tea?
It might lure thee
To drink from the toilet bowl and
That would not be pretty.
Goes without saying.
morethan, me neither. But it kind of makes sense, given hot chocolate's so good.
xoRobyn
Chocolate tea?? Interesting. They come up with everything!!
ReplyDeleteI adore chocolate, but a chocolate tea doesn't sound like a good idea to me. I'd much rather have the real thing! Yum, yum! :-)
ReplyDeleteSorry, but chocolate tea? Uh, ewww...;)
ReplyDeleteAnd did not know that wild trees could be organic. Advertisers really do throw words together that sound good and expect people to buy.
sounds like my kind of drink
