Read My Lips

I love this tea. It is chocolaty and minty and so comforting and relaxing. It tastes great with a bit of milk or even as a latte. The dry leaf smells a lot like chocolate with a hint of mint. Its appearance is adorable with the red lips and mini chocolate chips. This is one of my favorites and I would highly recommend for any chocolate lovers.

Yummy mix of mint and chocolate. Not too weak, not too strong. Not too sweet. Just right.

Chocolately, creamy, smells divine. Tastes so good I can’t stop myself until the whole pot is gone. Delish. My favorite DavidsTea.

Part of the sweet indulgence sampler!

Dry: smells slightly chocolate-y and minty, and had cute little lips!

Steeped: smells very similar to mint chocolate rooibos, tastes like a slightly minty tootsie roll, not super chocolatey or minty, but just a nice hint of both flavors.

I’m brand new to this, but I bought several teas on a spree, and this one had great reviews, so I decided to give it a try. I like chocolate, and I like mint, so why not.

I’m sad to say, I didn’t like it at all. It left a bad taste in my mouth, and I’m not sure what from, but I feel like it was either the chocolate or the sprinkles in it… I also feel like the mint was drowned out by the chocolate. I tried it black, tried it a with a little sugar, and then a little milk (I usually drink my teas with sugar or honey and milk or coconut milk), and after that it was tolerable, but still not for me. Unless it grows on me, I wont be buying again.

I think I just don’t like black tea.

This tea was most definitely not for me. I don’t like chocolate teas, so that will qualify my tasting note right off the bat. I didn’t care for the smell and wouldn’t have tried it if it weren’t in my Advent Tea Calendar. But…as this was my Advent plan, to go through all 24 tea samples, I decided to give it a go. I liked the peppermint tones, and I liked the vanilla. I even liked the cute red lips. But, I most definitely did not like the chocolate—while I love chocolate, I prefer it in dessert or hot cocoa, not in my tea. I would not have this again, and I poured out my cup without being able to finish it. I was only able to down half of it. My opinion, for what its worth: if you love tea, drink tea. If you love chocolate, eat or drink chocolate. Maybe even at the same time. But when it comes to mixing them—blech.

Read My Lips smells absolutely delicious, like a mint chocolate candy bar. Opening this tin made my whole kitchen smell like chocolate and it smells deliciously chocolatey when brewed too. Oh, also, it looks fantastic with those little lip sprinkles and the huge chunks of chocolate!

The tea itself doesn’t retain too much of the chocolate flavor, being overwhelmed by the peppermint. That’s not a bad thing, though — the combination of the peppermint with the peppercorn for a bit of kick with a slight chocolate undertone makes for a very tasty blend. I am not a huge fan of black tea, but this one was very drinkable.

It’s perfect for warming up on a cold winter day.

This is sooooo good. It has the perfect amount of everything. I find that it makes my mouth water SO MUCH! Am I crazy?

One of my favorites! Yum!
