Yummmmoooo!
This morning I saw DT’s recipe of the day: Matcha Cocoa Canela Iced Choco-latte and was inspired! Instead of using up the rest of my sample of Cocoa Canela, I decided to sub a few things and make this recipe my own:

- 2 perfect spoonfuls of Chocolate Rocket
- 1 perfect spoonful of Matcha Matsu
- 2 perfect spoonfuls of dutch processed cocoa powder
- 2 cups of unsweetened almond milk
- 1.5 Tbsp of organic agave syrup
- .5 tsp of cinnamon powder
- ice cubes

Here is what I did:
1. steep the Chocolate Rocket in 1.5 cups of water at ~190F (to keep the bitterness down) for 4-5 minutes. Put in freezer once brewed.
2. Add matcha, cocoa, cinnamon, almond milk, and agave into blender. Blend until no lumps are seen.
3. Once, tea has cooled, put all ingredients into a large jug (this makes ~3-4 servings).
4. Pour out ~1 servings worth of the concoction into blender, along with a few ice cubes, and blend away.

DRINK AND ENJOY!
Holy heavens this tastes amazing. Chocolate-matcha-raspberry-tastic! It reminds me of a malt… but with raspberries.
New morning love <3

It is crazy good! And energizing… I’m trying to stop myself from drinking the rest so I have it for tomorrow morning! I have willpower… I think =/

Profile

Bio

I am very excited to delve into as many different types of tea as possible… so this should be interesting. I am really looking forwards to tasting all the wide array of flavours that can come from pure tea leaves.

Currently, I am having a love affair with oolongs. Mostly green, though I am stretching out into more oxidized oolongs. Black teas are also in my love fest as they can be so surprising sometimes (I used to drink bagged red rose x.x)
I would really love to get to know green tea a lot more and white tea.. all tea to be honest. I want to know them all.

Tea rating system:

0-50: Do people actually enjoy this?
50-60: Slight improvement, not recommendable.
60-70: Alright, though easily forgettable.
70-80: Good flavour, though not a ‘go to’ tea.
80-90: Great tea – complex and memorable.
90-100: Extremely delicious and complex teas that leave me craving more.

On top of tea, I have a love for music. Generally all music, though I am partial to indie rock/folk/pop/electronic. Follow me if you also enjoy indie music and would like to trade some artists!

I’m always open to new tea and music suggestions. Happy tea drinking to you all.
