This might actually be more chocolatey than the original Verdant blend. Thanks to Zennenn for including this in my Secret Pumpkin package!
It’s been a long and difficult week so I needed something sweet and comforting. This did hit the spot, but happens to be one of those black teas that hurt my stomach. Call it a bittersweet experience. The flavor is really nice though. More hot cocoa than rice krispy treats. I’m on my second steep and it is still sweet and flavorful. Yum.
Maybe the key is to have snacks on hand so that you stomach doesn’t suffer.
Eating bread/carbs before drinking black tea does usually reduce the pain but doesn’t preclude it entirely. Thanks for the suggestion though!
