24 Days of Tea, Day 2.

Full disclosure: I’m not a fan of David’s Tea’s chais. I find them watery and flaccid, so I went into this without high hopes… and I was right. Because I find DT’s chais weak, I steeped this longer than the directions instructed, but upon first sip, all I got was licorice. Expecting a combination of chai and vanilla, I was unprepared for this, and I was taken aback, because even more than I dislike DT’s chais, I dislike licorice flavouring, especially in a drink. Here, it’s overpowering. I am glad I only had a small sample of this in my advent calendar, because it’s certainly not something I’d ever, or will ever, purchase.
