White Chocolate Frost

Cycling through the cold, cold weather may be starting to get to me. Come on, immune system, hang in there!!

I’m not sure what it was – perhaps simply the spur of the moment – but something about this tea enticed me enough to try out something new.

The peppermint definitely keeps me awake (more so than caffeine?!) and leaves a sharp, cool sensation on my tongue. But something’s not right in there – I’m thinking it’s the white chocolate. The result is something uncannily creamy—no, fatty? “Rich” would be a more euphemistic way of putting it—and with a touch of sweetness, although it’s the sugar-mixed-with-fat kind of sweet. This is not what I’m looking for at all.

At least it keeps me awake.

I mostly like the peppermint. It’s a not-as-good version of Cocomint Cream… my co-workers seem to like this better than I do. I don’t think I will re-buy after by 25g’s is up… I don’t taste much white chocolate and not a fan of the additives!

I had to admit that I was pretty skeptical about this tea upon reading quite negative reviews on it… Many seemed to say that it is just a mint herbal and that there is no chocolate at all.

However, I was very pleasantly surprised when I tried it last night! First of all, the taste is quite strong for an herbal! No lightly flavored water there! Second, while the mint is the prominent taste, the white chocolate is present! It’s creaminess and sweetness are very noticeable and they bring a whole new dimension to the mint. I absolutely loved this tea and am glad I bought some. Good job David!

I stopped by DT yesterday to smell and taste some of their winter collection teas. As I am a fan of mint chocolate, when I saw this one in store I tought “OMG! This is going to be soooo goooood!”. So obviously I tried it! My fist reaction was that I tought there must have been a mistake. I did’t taste at all the chocolate, only the mint and it actually tasted just like normal mint herbal infusion. Of course I was really disappointed. I like herbal mint teas, but when you expect to have a chocolaty minty taste and you don’t get it, you’re not as satisfied…

Clean, clear, creamy but also a little white chocolatey. Very nice holiday feel to it.

This tea seemed perfect for such a cold evening and yucky weather outside. This is one of the only minty teas I like. Probably because of the creaminess and white chocolate. It’s sweet, and minty with the chocolate lingering in the background. Nice and warming for an evening treat.

I got this as a sample with their order, let me just say i love when companies do it for more times than not i end up buying from one of their 3 samples. But this is not going be the case. I love desert tea, but the mixed of chocolate and spearmint is not a favorite for me. Couple years back i went crazy on mint tea and probably over did it because now i can’t stand them plus the cup was full of grace from the chocolate, like if someone had poor couple teaspoon of butter in there.

I did not like this tea.

I’m drinking this one right now on a cold and rainy day with thunderstorm and it’s hitting me right in the right spot! It’s creamy, milky and minty in the same time. I LOVE it right now, Yum!

This sample is from beelicious as well. I ended up liking it a lot more than the previous minty tea I tried!

The blend contains mint leaves, white chocolate shavings, and little spheres that I later realized were peppercorns. The white chocolate isn’t drowned out by the mint, and is detectable in the aroma as well as flavor, quite nicely creamy. The peppermint flavor is very fresh and cooling, so that it really does deserve the “frost” in its name. The overall effect is refreshing and a little sweet, and makes for a nice little wintery dessert.
