Sweet flavours of maple syrup and pumpkin cream on an organic rooibos with apricot pieces, sweet orange peel, calendula and safflowers. Makes a great seasonal latte treat.
Blenders Notes: This blend has been tricky to get to the right balance of sweetness and spice. The maple sweetness supports the pumpkin aroma and is balanced by a hint of walnut and the heat of ginger spice.The blend is best if allowed to steep at least 5 min so the spices can infuse. The rooibos allows long steeping as it has low tannin and does not go bitter. A splash of sweetener will bring the infusion to perfection.
Ingredients: organic rooibos, cinnamon, ginger, citrus peel, cocoa pieces, apricot, orange peel, calendula, safflowers, flavour.

Sample from the tea girl. I picked this one out i think lol I found this one to be a really nice rooibos blend. It IS maple-y and also pumpkin AND doesn’t have that woody rooibos flavour that i don’t like. It is very sweet though, but that’s almost a given with maple flavouring. :)
2020 Advent Calendar from The Tea Girl – Day 18
Backlog from last Friday – so after my disaster of a morning matcha, I was excited to have this tea in the evening before bed as a sweet maple treat and to redeem my poor tea day lol. Brewing, this smelled SOO MAPLEY and YUM. I steeped for 5 minutes as per the recommendation, although my usual steeping time for rooibos is 4 minutes.
So for flavor – this was good, but it wasn’t quite hitting the mark for me, and I honestly think it’s just the wrong season for it. This was super maple, super woody, super NUTTY (like nut aftertaste that freaked me out, cuz I know there are no nuts in here), and overall quite cozy…but much better suited for autumn. I am going to make my next cup as an almond milk latte with some maple syrup I think, as that is what this tea needs – I almost found it too autumny and sweet and powerfully nutty on its own, it needs some milk to keep up with it! Tasty, but just not the right mindset for me haha! Might order a bit more next fall when I’m craving those flavors!
Mapleeee!
