drank Pumpkin Chai by DAVIDsTEA
308 tasting notes

Oh, how I long for a pumpkin-flavored black tea that isn’t overly spiced. I’m kicking myself for missing out on some of these delicious pumpkin blends from Butiki I keep reading about whilst researching pumpkin tea options. If anyone has recommendations let me know.

I tried a sample of this a few months ago as a latte and enjoyed it. I then discovered that I still had my unopened 25 gram bag from the fall 2012 collection. I prefer that blend (the one with the squash) to the newer version. I’ll repurchase it (and stock up on it) when it’s re-released this fall because it’ll probably wind up being my replacement for PSL from Starbucks since I’m really limiting my coffee these days. I also really enjoy pumpkin protein shakes/smoothies in the fall, and Pumpkin Chai steeped in non-dairy milk would probably make a killer base.

Flavors: Cinnamon, Pumpkin

I actually like Celestial Seasonings Black Pumpkin tea that comes out around the fall time. It takes great with some almond milk.

Thanks for the recommendation Nichole! That’s bagged, right? I’ll keep an eye out for it.

Nichole/CuppaGeek

Yes. If you can’t find it let me know. I have a couple boxes of it left.

Is it the Sweet Harvest Pumpkin (http://www.celestialseasonings.com/products/holiday-teas/sweet-harvest-pumpkin)? I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it in stores before.

Nichole/CuppaGeek

Yep! That is it. I couldn’t remember its exact name. I just remembered the dude on the tractor. :)

LOL! I’ll keep my eyes peeled. I’m sure I’ll see it again this year. :)
