additional notes: RESTOCK! I can attest, S&V is still blending this one up real well. The same as my sample from a few years ago. Though initially I did not like this blend… to be fair, I tried it from a teabox and who knows how old it actually was. Then a few years ago I tried it again in S&V’s holiday sample box and loved it. So it’s a lesson. A reminder that teas age, or blend recipes change. It’s probably a rare example of stevia used perfectly in a blend. It’s strong mint, but not too strong, not harsh peppermint… and amazingly blended with the perfect amount of sweetness that also seems to have a hint of cream to it. So good. ONE teaspoon is perfect for a mug.

I thought I remembered this having too much stevia for me, but I actually really enjoyed it in the advent!
Yeah, I think if I steep it with a flat teaspoon, it’s a perfect mug amount of stevia. I can see 1 1/2 teaspoons being overboard.
There’s a S&V order in my future, but definitely not in the near future ha ha! There were several teas in the advent that I liked more than I remembered (Caramel Walnut Shortbread comes to mind!).
yep, that Caramel Walnut is a cupboard staple for sure (and another one I just stocked up on.)
