Fusion Food is the prompt for today’s Vegan MoFo topic. So what better way to chat about fusion foods than a savory green tea!
Delight Pho from Millies Savory Teas is also known by Delight Pho Vegetable Sipping Broth. They aren’t currently on the stores website but I wanted to mention these single-serve steepables which are known to many as comfort food in a broth (which is also trademarked by Millies).
Delight Pho from Millies Savory Teas – as is all of the sipping broths – was the brainchild of a school teacher who was looking for something healthy to sip on while busy during the school day. This flavor is gluten-free and vegan! The ingredients include an organic vegetable blend of carrots, celery, and onion. I could taste the onion first and foremost followed by the celery and then the carrot. There was also a nice amount of garlic in this. There was sea salt, too. Basil was there but not prominent yet appreciated. Another loud shout of an ingredient was the spicy red peppers and spices which were a nice wake up that is for sure! How is this a tea you might ask? Because Delight Pho from Millies Savory Teas also contains green tea!
The flavor was much like a Spring Onion and Garlic broth I like from a local health food store. It was a bit salty but only contained 280mg of sodium which isn’t bad at all. I didn’t really have anything for lunch one day while at work and didn’t want to go out and try and find something to spend money on so this worked out perfectly. I added the bag to my cup and added hot water to my cup and there you have it! It was spicy, savory, herbally, and had that comforting flavor combo of carrots, celery, onion, and garlic!
I liked Delight Pho from Millies Savory Teas but I do adore Millie’s Spicy Tortilla, too, but so far this is my second favorite of their flavors! I can’t wait to try more of them!

Spicy Tortilla Vegetable Sipping Broth from Millie’s Savory Teas
Today I NEED to share with you – Spicy Tortilla Vegetable Sipping Broth from Millie’s Savory Teas! I’m doing a tie-in with VeganMofo on this one because it works PERFECTLY for the “Easy Cook Meal”… ‘something I make when I can’t be bothered to cook much’! Millie’s Savory Teas – also known as – Millie’s Sipping Broth – was INVENTED by a school teacher who needed a better way to snack in between classes!
After double checking the ingredients AND confirming with the company I was able to verify that Spicy Tortilla Vegetable Sipping Broth from Millie’s Savory Teas was VEGAN – therefore – the PERFECT PRODUCT to feature for today! WHY am I so darn excited about Spicy Tortilla Vegetable Sipping Broth from Millie’s Savory Teas? Because MOST Tortilla Soups that are commercial popular have chicken broth or other chicken ingredients in them! NOT Spicy Tortilla Vegetable Sipping Broth from Millie’s Savory Teas! The ingredients include: Green Tea, an organic vegetable blend that contains carrots, onion, and celery, tomato, sea salt, yeast extract, garlic, chipotle, herbs, and spices.
I made a cup of Spicy Tortilla Vegetable Sipping Broth from Millie’s Savory Teas while at work and VERY busy one day not too long ago and I will tell you the more I drank it the more I was addicted to the flavor! I drank it on an empty stomach (well the only thing my stomach had in it was other teas) but I will say I was HUNGRY going into this sipping experience and by the time I was done I was completely satisfied. I’m not making any claims here – just telling you what my stomach experienced!
The flavor of Spicy Tortilla Vegetable Sipping Broth from Millie’s Savory Teas was out of this world! It WAS spicy, savory, tomato-y, garlic-y, and peppery. I LOVED each of those tastes! I can see myself drinking this often! Is it a SOUP? Is it a TEA? YES. And it is FABULOUS!
