Day 3 of the Teeccino advent calendar! The teabags have little thoughts and sayings behind them when you take them out of the calendar, and Day 3’s saying is a prompt to do a gratitude practice. I liked that – I enjoyed that it was something both meaningful and utterly secular. As for the tea itself, I added oat milk because, well, I usually add a faux milk to chais. Unfortunately, the chai spices are pretty weak here. The carob, chicory, and dandelion base are strong and delicious. The “spice” part of it doesn’t stack up though. Generously speaking, I can find some faint cinnamon, ginger, and clove, but they’re really overwhelmed by the base. It’s tasty as a lightly-spiced Teeccino, but if you go into this expecting a robust chai, you’ll likely be disappointed.

I have been keeping a gratitude journal for well over a year now. At a few months, I didn’t think it was making much difference so I stopped. After about a week or ten days, I realized it really WAS making a difference and I went back to it. I liked myself and my attitude much better when keeping the journal! Ha ha!

It’s a lot easier to have a good attitude when you think of all the good things you DO have instead of lamenting the things that haven’t gone your way.

This is a basic Chai with chicory and sweetened with dates. Not their best flavor and not something I’d seek out to purchase. On the Advent there are quotes behind each tea packet. Today’s was list 5 things you are grateful for. Well, you lovely steepsterites are certainly a community I am thankful for. Thanks for making me smile :)
Other things I am grateful for: Cold weather (to appreciate when it gets warmer), Exciting world cup football matches, legs that carry me where I need to go and books to read.

Sipdown! (18 | 507)

Using two teabags for a 16-ounce mug, and steeping a bit less than last time to try to avoid excessive bitterness. Although this blend has rooibos as well, so it’s quite different from the herbal tisane I tried before.

It’s still fairly strong on the chicory and dandelion root though, and the associated bitterness. It’s fairly pleasant otherwise, with a balanced blend of spices – cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, clove, a bit of pepper maybe. I actually don’t taste a lot of rooibos, which surprises me. There’s a nice caramelized sweetness from the dates. I can’t say that I love the blackberry leaf though, it always has a more artificial-like cloying sweet flavor to me.

So not something I would buy, but a drinkable cuppa. I can see it being nice with milk as well.

I liked one of the other teas from this brand in the past so I bought a Dandelion tea bag sampler to try the rest of the flavors. This company makes coffee substitutes and is essentially an herbal coffee alternative. I made this one today and added a little oat milk to it. The spices in this tea are very weak and the sweetness overpowers them. I think this is my least favorite of the variety pack that I’ve tried so far. I would much rather drink a regular caffeinated chai or a good rooibos chai. This tea is very sweet from the dates and blackberry leaf in it. I think you could definitely find something better at a lower price. (I did enjoy the Tumeric and Caramel Nut ones I’ve tried so far though)

Meh.
Tastes like a standard rooibos chai. Nothing special. Drinkable, certainly, but not really memorable. Kind of reminds me of the Oregon Chai Rooibos blend.
