Amaretto from DAVIDsTEA
86

Went for my 20-week ultrasound on the 1st, everything looks good and… it’s a BOY! We’re refraining from telling anyone but a few select individuals (who can keep a secret) and, well, my fellow Steepsterites! I figure the chances of me seeing any of you in person or any of you telling anyone I know are pretty slim.

Since I’m feeling pretty good lately—the nausea is mostly gone, my stomach hasn’t spasmed in 4 days (knock on wood), and I can tolerate most teas again—I thought I’d celebrate with a big mug of Amaretto Latte. While the tea didn’t brew up quite as strong as I wanted, it does pair nicely with hot, frothy milk, which brings out its more marzipan-like qualities. Delicious. And baby boy must think so too because I can feel his little kicks…

Thanks all! It’ll be interesting to see how my 22-month-old daughter reacts to the little guy come spring…

HEY just wanted to let you know that if you’re pregnant you shouldn’t drink this tea because it has lapacho bark in it.

^^ Good catch, alexandra. I’ve read that as well, but didn’t even twig when I read this post.

I read that too, not that they really explain WHY pregnant women can’t drink it. But just to be safe I have retired the bag to the back of my cupboard…

Hi there! Since finding out I have various stomach problems which require me to avoid coffee and alcohol I have become a big fan of tea in it’s many forms: white, green, black, red, etc. and will try anything once.

I hope you find my reviews helpful…
