Chocolate Orange (Oh Christmas Treat) from DAVIDsTEA

Avrilkira drank Chocolate Orange (Oh Christmas Treat) by DAVIDsTEA

So my day at work today wasn’t anywhere near as cold as yesterday (I got to spend my day in a little booth with a heater that somewhat works…), but I decided I really wanted to try my girls out on a tea latte – and what better way than with a tea that smells like a Terry’s X-mas orange?

I made the tea latte the same way I did last night with the Chocolate Chili Chai – which was how I watched the girl at David’s in Guildford Mall make one – adding some agave syrup to the steeping tea.

So here goes…

I love the smell of the tea once brewed, and in the Latte? Delish! This is one amazing latte! I’m sitting here waiting for my girls to try/drink theirs; cause if they don’t drink them I sure will!

This tea is a definite keeper for me – I will be picking up some more very soon (sorry wallet)…

I’m now wondering how to make the other Terry’s Chocolate orange flavours with my teas…. any suggestions of some combos to make with the Oh Christmas Treat tea?

Chocolate Rocket already tastes like the raspberry flavour of chocolate orange, but add a little of this one and I think it might be perfect :D!

Could you share more details on how you made your latte? I’m very curious to perfect my method n_-

I didn’t overly measure the water or milk (I’m not a perfectionist and this from the Holiday sampler). I used about 1 David’sTea perfect teaspoon of the tea, boiled the water and steeped it in my “the steeper”. I added a squirt of agave to the steeping tea (no measure). While it was steeping, I steamed/frothed the milk in my Breville milk steamer (love it). When the milk was steamed I put the tea in my mug, added the milk and some foamed milk and topped that off with a nice fresh sprinkling from my Trader Joe’s “Sugar, Chocolate and Coffee Bean Grinder”… Hope that helps ;)

Awesome! The Steeper saves the day once again, thanks so much for sharing ^^

Now if I could only figure out how to properly clean the darn thing… my latte experience would be perfect. haha

Lol! I think I saw somewhere that it does come apart…. On a side note I re-steeped this one but added 1/2 a tsp of chocolate chili chai and a little brandy to it. De-lish!
