Bonnie drank Buttered Rum (organic) by DAVIDsTEA

First review. Thank you BTVSGal for the sample (I’ve ordered some from DavidsTea). The aroma is cream brulee with a hint of rum…not much rum…a whisper. Man-oh-man good! And I did the unthinkable…you know you do it…I’m not the only one who does things that you’re not supposed to do when you are a “tea person” in good standing with the “tea” community…but, I confess I used…ITALIAN SWEET CREAM creamer in the tea. OK I said it. Artificial creamer! And, it tasted GOOD! like real cream brulee! Good grief! Maybe I’m just still sick. I slept most of the day because I had a tooth pulled and I was carrying my tea tray…kicked the coffee table and broke my toes. I so needed dessert! This was so good I’ll do it again. But I admit that plain or doctored up this tea is really good.
