Chocolate Covered Strawberry

Description

Creamy chocolate meets sweet strawberries in our delicious Chocolate Covered Strawberry!

Chocolate Covered Strawberry has a special place in our Teashop Family heart.  In 2004, at Brenda’s request, Sarah created this special tea as Brenda planned our first big Valentines Tea Party.  This Monthly Themed Tea Party was  “Gone with the Wind” and we excitedly debuted Chocolate Covered Strawberry.  This special tea blend has been in our line ever since.  Who can resist chocolate and strawberries especially on Valentines Day?  Whole leaf black tea blended with chocolate chips, chocolate flavoring, strawberry bits & cream flavor.  Good with milk, sugar, or honey.

Flavored Teas whether they be green, black, or other varieties of tea are all from the same camellia sinensis bush. The whole tea leaves blend and nestle with real fruits, herbs, spices. Essential oils or essence of flowers and fruits also make an appearance. This blending results in a change of flavor to the tea leaf. Creating a delightful and inspiring challenge to the taste buds.

Black tea is the well known and highly appreciated form of tea from the camellia sinensis bush. Black tea leaves are fully oxidized and produce a deep rich body, full flavor brew with a beautiful amber color. In contrast to green tea which does not go through the oxidation process. Consistently green tea has a much quieter flavor of tea.

During the oxidation process, oxygen comes in contact with the enzymes inside the tea leaf. This contact produces wonderful deep flavors. The flavor of each black tea varies depending upon the region in which the tea grows, weather conditions, and then finally the preparation of the tea.
