A Caramel Buttercream Tea from Adagio Teas

A Caramel Buttercream Tea

Black Honeybush Rooibos Blend by Adagio Teas

This tea is a blend of rooibos caramel, honeybush vanilla, and cream-flavored black tea. It is a great sweet treat anytime! The honeybush tea gives this blend a natural sweetness, so you can indulge without adding any sugar. Though it is not what I originally expected, the taste reminds me of buttercream frosting. I think this is my new favorite!

Will Work For Tea

This was my first blend purchase from Adagio. It was nice while it lasted, but probably not something I’d get again. Tasted the best hot with caramel syrup and milk. A decent winter tea, but now that it’s warming up I need the tin it was in.

This was my first purchase from Adagio teas and one of my first experiences with honeybush and rooibos teas. I have to say, this tea really pulls off the “creamy” part of the namesake. I really enjoyed this tea for its natural sweetness. I’m looking forward to finishing this tea!

It’s been so long since I last logged this! It was part of my very first Adagio order and somehow it’s still in my cupboard.
This tea is actually a really great staple tea. It tastes really great when you add milk, honey, or just plain. It has a inherently creamy and it really reminds me of cake today. A nicely iced, thick and wonderfully sweet cake! I think that I had forgotten about this tea because it’s not very flashy. It hid at the back of my cupboard minding its time, but I think that it should be more in the forefront. A great deal for your money and a really great tea for anytime of day.

I’ve had this tea for awhile now. It has slowly been pushed to the back of my cupboard. This is mostly because, although the tea is good, it tends to be bland when compared to other blends. It is creamy and quite light. This tea is good for chilly nights when black tea just won’t do.
Today I just got some hazelnut agave nectar and I’ve never had agave before, so it’s going to be interesting! Overall it’s pretty good together! :)

I haven’t logged this tea in forever! My stash is almost gone. I have to admit that this lasted me a long time. It is a pretty good blend. It’s not as powerful in the taste department; which is probably why it is still in my stash. The tea is very smooth/creamy. For a pretty plain rooibos this stands out among the ones I have tried. Very tasty!

Too hot! Will make it at a lower temperature this time. Good for late-night sipping though, because the rooibos in it is caffeine-free.
