sweet mint

This tea is a personal favorite of mine. I tried a sample sent by a tea friend and when I went to London, I knew I needed more. I actually had to cross a marathon just to get to the Twinings shop and it was 100% worth it.

It lives up to the “intensely” in its name, being incredibly flavorful. Though that is not the only way it lives up to its name. This tea is both buttery and minty.

The butter element providing a great deal of creamy sweetness while the mint keeps everything fresh and interesting. The flavors together are so rich that they create an almost caramel-like taste. And since it’s a caffeine-free teabag, it is easy to make and can be enjoyed anytime.

Here’s the scoop!

Description

Ah the seductive taste of Buttermint! So refreshing. So homely. And now brought to life in this delightful infusion.

We’ve taken peppermint leaves – in all their fresh tasting glory – and blended them with aromatic vanilla for a dreamy satin-soft buttermint finish. Intensely, dreamily delicious… it’s just ever-so-slightly reminiscent of the sweet shops of olde.

Hi there! I'm Mary, a 27-year-old mental health professional living with my fiancé and our quirky kitten in the Midwest! I've loved tea for as long as I can remember-- in fact, I have vivid memory of being four or five in a tea shop and being mesmerized by all the tea flavors and proclaiming that I "was going to be kind of adult who drank tea, not coffee." A stint living (and tea-drinking my way through) London and twenty-some years later, I'm still channeling that sassy four-year-old and loving my tea habit. When I'm not sipping a cuppa, you'll find me reading, doing yoga, traveling, exploring my own city, planning our wedding and experimenting with different healthful and healing foods in my kitchen.
