I’m not exactly sure how it differs from regular chai tea, but when

Cocomint Green @adagioteas #teaadventcalendar #adventcalendar2021

Today’s tea from my Tea Advent Calendar is one I’ve never tried before, Cocomint Green. It looks like a green tea version of chocolate mint.The tea has green tea, cocoa nibs, natural chocolate mint flavor, and peppermint leaves. It really smelled like mint chocolate when I opened the packet! At first glance, the tea leaves look like Chinese green tea.I steeped it for 3 minutes in 8 ounces

Honeybush Banana Nut @adagioteas #teaadventcalendar #adventcalendar2021

I really love banana nut bread, so I was pretty excited to see today’s tea from my Tea Advent Calendar, Honeybush Banana Nut. I’m not a huge honeybush fan, but I don’t mind the flavored honeybush teas from Adagio, so I was expecting a pretty good cup.The tea has honeybush tea, apple pieces, cinnamon, cocoa nibs, natural banana flavor, natural chestnut flavor, and marigold flowers. I could
