2024 sipdown no. 59
Without additions: Those Hatch chiles POP. This is super tasty — very dark chocolate with hints of cinnamon and a smash of spiciness at the end of the sip that really stays with you.
With additions: The instructions recommended making this with cream and honey. I improvised with the creamiest milk I had and maple. I used about 3/4 mug of hot water and 1/4 mug of soy milk. It was super tasty, but the milk and maple definitely took over and the spiciness was almost nonexistent. If the spiciness had come through, this one would have been that much more amazing.
I may have to improvise with Cavalla and Trader Joe’s Hatch Chiles (from Kelmishka!) until this company ships to Canada XD.
Thank you Cameron for sharing another great tea!
I was surprised to like this one too, I never usually enjoy the chocolate + chile combo. Always willing to forward some to you, ha ha! :3
