1 TB for 450mL water, bare.
About twenty-odd years ago, when I started university (in a different province, far from home), Second Cup was making a raspberry chocolate flavoured coffee. I drank a lot of that and felt like I could do anything.
Guess what the scent of DavidsTea Chocolate Rocket reminds me of?
So yeah, on scent alone, I’m smilin.
Then I sipped.
BAM! Very much as described in the ad copy. I geneally don’t care for roasted mate, but I am loving this blend. It’s quite intense brewed as a tisane and almost as dark as coffee. I’m not sure I could handle the flavours if I brewed this in a gourd, but it would be worth a try.
Refreshing. Lives up to the hype. Not a delicate drink. I’ll report later on any mate buzz.

The mate helped chase away a bad-night-with-arthritis pain hangover. Very nice. I feel pleasantly speedy but not jittery and anxious, the way I get after too much coffee or after energy drinks (why, oh WHY do I keep trying those??).

This blend is also a bit sweet on its own — I’d suggest truing it plain first before adding sweetener.
