Tea of the Week for February 25, 2019!
OK, when I first decided to do this tea, I must admit that I had to double (and even triple) check to make sure that Frank didn’t already create a Peanut Butter Cookie blend because it sounds like something he’d do. He did create quite a few different peanut butter blends so I expected to find this on the list – but I wasn’t able to find one. So if he did create the blend, I don’t have a record of it and it wasn’t recorded on Steepster.
Side note (and true story): back when I first noticed Frank creating various peanut butter blends, I avoided them. I didn’t think that peanut butter flavored teas would taste good. What’s more: I was actually quite repulsed by the idea of peanut butter flavored teas. I thought that peanut butter should be left to sandwiches, cookies and peanut butter cups and should stay as far away from tea as possible.
Then I actually tried one of Frank’s peanut butter teas and I liked it. I really liked it!
So here I am, sipping on my own peanut butter creation and loving every sip of it: an organic black tea base – a blend of Assam, Ceylon & Yunnan teas – blended with peanut butter cookie essence and a few calendula petals for some color.
And to those of you out there with a peanut sensitivity: worry not! This tea was created without peanuts. Nope, not one peanut went into the making of this tea! So you can enjoy your peanut butter cookie [tea] without fear! In addition, it’s also organic, VEGAN and gluten-free!
organic ingredients: black teas, calendula petals & natural flavors
You know, I was on the fence about this one, as I was already getting the Chestnut Praline Green Tea, and I didn’t know if I liked Nutty Tea or not. Turns out, I really don’t. But I’m glad this one appealed to you!
BTW: I don’t really like peanut butter cookies either so that also influenced my decision not to spring for this one.
hehe Yeah I love peanuts, pistachios and almonds… I used to put peanut butter in my coffee with a splash of cream o.O. I understand when you don’t really like something, it is hard to rate it. I’m that way with Jasmine and cantaloupe lol… Mint too.
I almost made an order specifically to try this tea, but I stopped myself since I still haven’t even opened my January order from them.
haha AJRimmer, you just don’t know how much I relate to you on this (with all vendors).
:)
Quick! Buy all the teas!
