Heather Martin drank Amaretto by DAVIDsTEA

Tea to go for me, and free at that. The initial SA buggered off and passed me on to another person, who was very helpful, and she comped the tea for me.

It tastes lovely, but I can’t tell if there is much difference between this and Alpine Punch. I might need to pick up more of each and evaluate at home. Anyone know if lapacho is better for you than rooibos, or are they really just two peas from the same pod?

More later, but it was yummy and I enjoyed it.

I think the main claim to fame for lapacho is its cancer and infection/parasite fighting ability. There are rumours about it, and even the cancer society reports potential benefits, or so I am told.
Otherwise I think it also has the standard antioxidant properties. (Also anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, and so on)
I tried this a few years ago, with no added flavourings… I quite enjoyed it!

Is this going to be a more permanent addition once Alpine Punch goes away after the holidays? It would be great if it was, so I could still get my fix. I think I do like the lapacho base better over the rooibos, but there is an apple cider/punch feel to Alpine Punch that Amaretto doesn’t have. So I like both for the slight differences.
