Sipdown! This is an old tea, probably one of the oldest I had from my first DT order. It still pretty much tastes the same though, even when I didn’t have quite enough for this morning as I would normally use. Sweet frosting (like the kind from a can, not homemade) is the most dominant aroma and it is an uber-dessert. Probably still the best cupcake tea I’ve had (I think I like it better than David’s Red Velvet), but still has something artificial. I think it would be improved with the addition of real vanilla bean and a straight black with natural cocoa notes, but I’m sure that would be costly and difficult. When I am going for straight up sugary-type teas, I’d reach for S’mores and Pineapple Upside-Down Cake before this one, so not going to be re-order unfortunately. I still don’t really taste anything chocolate and I decided to try to remedy that by adding a bunch of cacao nibs and a dash of milk. Mmmm.
