I was lucky to get a sample of this one! Thanks Red Leaf Tea!
Steep #1 // water cooled a half hour
Opening the package, it smells EXACTLY LIKE eggnog! How do they do it? HOW DO THEY DO ITTT? Wow. I couldn’t even tell the difference by the scent blindfolded. The flavor is the same way – so much like eggnog! Eggy and with the eggnog spices! I am amazed. I’d say this is the most accurate matcha flavor from Red Leaf of the few I’ve tried. All on their lovely fresh green matcha. I had major focus while reading after drinking this as well. I can’t wait to try it with milk….
Steep#2 // warm milk latte
Somehow with milk, this kind of tastes a bit less like eggnog than with water, which is just a testament to how much this actually tastes like eggnog. It still tastes very much like eggnog with milk… you just get more of the flavor showing through the water. It’s amazing magic. So delicious. It has a natural sweetness. It seems like sugar is in this one, but there isn’t. I’d prefer this over eggnog any day! One of my favorites from Red Leaf.

grabby hands I have a mighty need!
I actually gave my sample of this to a girl who works at my local starbucks. I made an order and tacked it on when it was free, thinking I’d try it even though I don’t like eggnog. I never got adventerous enough to try it but she was astounded by my generosity. She loved the heck out of it too, and that makes me happy. Gonna have to try matcha before a good reading session too…hmm.
JennyFur, you should have tried it!
