حلوى القصب

Brewed this on a cold December morning and the peppermint sweetness came through without being cloying. It's a black tea base, so it still has that malty backbone underneath the candy cane flavor. Bought a tin for my sister too.

I was worried a candy cane black tea would taste medicinal, but it's actually really smooth with just a hint of sweet mint. Three minutes steeped and it's my new cold-weather evening cup.

Steeped a mug for our tree-trimming night and the whole kitchen smelled like a fresh candy cane. The black tea base is smooth enough to sip without sugar, which I didn't expect. It's got that cozy Christmas feeling down pat.
