Sample 2/7
Wow! This hasn’t even been put in the data base til now. I’m really getting anxious for my December vacation for my best friend’s wedding (37 days!) so I reached for this for my daily milk consumption.
The dry leaf smells very strongly of spice and just a hint of fruitiness.
16oz cuppa: 2.5tsp, 8oz water, 8oz Smart Balance Milk
Ok… I’m worried. I steeped in in only half the total liquid it calls for and the liquor is really light. Here goes nothing.
Yummm! What a wonderful suprise! I love how my brain works though. My immediate reaction when I took my 1st sip was “Hmm… it’s like a nutty, spicy, hot egg nog without the eggyness”. Anyway, it’s insanely good. It’s not chai like, but I could see myself switching to this for the month of December. And the orange is light enough that it does NOT taste like a hot creamsicle which is a major plus for me. I’ll wait to rate it til I try it clean.
