An ideal tea sweetener, these crystals are sugar in its purest form. If you like your tea sweet, there's no better way to impart savory notes to your favorite cup. Adding a few sugar crystals will sweeten tea without distorting its flavor profile, pleasing both your sweet tooth and taste buds.

History

Sugar crystals are widely used in India with aniseed as a mouth freshener, especially after meals. The two are often served alongside the check or bill in Indian restaurants. In Thailand, sugar crystals served the function of money, being easy to weight and divide into small increments. Sugar crystals were also used to make Sugar Skulls in Mexico to celebrate the Day of the Dead. Mexican children would make rock candy in the shapes of skulls by special strings and then decorate them with icing and jewels.

Timothy ★★★★★

I've been stirring a few of these amber crystals into my evening black tea and the savory note they add is honestly addictive. They dissolve slower than regular sugar, which sounds like a flaw but actually lets me taste the tea underneath.

David ★★★★★

Swapping my usual spoonful of white sugar for a few of these in my morning tea changed the whole cup — the amber crystals give it this deeper, almost caramel note instead of plain sweetness. One small handful lasts me a couple weeks since I only need three or four per mug.

Lily P. ★★★★★

These crystals dissolve fast enough that I don’t have to stir for a minute, and the sweetness sits right behind the tea’s own flavor instead of smacking you in the face. I’ve swapped out my usual honey for these in my afternoon cup and honestly can’t go back.
