Description

While the greatest chocolates may come from Switzerland, the best chocolate tea undoubtedly comes from Adagio. And we guarantee that you won't choose to remain neutral. This decadent treat infuses the flavor of rich chocolate with the rich, full taste of Honeybush herbal tea. A rich sugar-free treat, delectable both hot and cold.

Story

The story of chocolate begins with Columbus' discovery of America. Cocoa beans were among the curiosities he brought back from his voyage. However, it wasn't until the conquest of Mexico that the Spaniards learned of 'chocolatl,' a drink made from cocoa beans that the Aztecs served Cortez and his troops. The Spaniards found the drink bitter. Luckily, the New World was also a source of cane sugar. Combining the two, and bringing the recipe to Spain, proved a booming business. The Spanish managed to keep it a secret for nearly a hundred years.

"This tea smelled like chocolate pudding while it was brewing, and when I drank it-- heaven. It has a beautiful mixture of rooibos and chocolate flavoring that makes it fantastic as a dessert tea!"

"I prefer this to the plain chocolate. It smells spicy, however, that could be from adding sugar. It has a hint of chocolate in it- sweet chocolate, not bitter. The worst thing about it is that it has a lot, a lot, of fine bits of tea, and they slipped through my infuser. They're kind of all pooled at the bottom of my mug, though it doesn't seem to affect the taste."

"This is a delicious blend! Not only does it smell great, but it has a wonderful chocolatey taste to it as well! Pair it with the honeybush hazelnut tea for something truly divine."
