DavidsTea Advent Calendar Day 7

Day 7 is S'mores Chai which is a medium-caffeine pu'erh tea (pu'erh is an aged black tea from the Yunnan province in China) described as:
"Gooey toasted marshmallows, graham crackers, dark chocolate – it’s no wonder we live for s’mores. Our tempting pu’erh tea adds an extra dash of cinnamon to the campfire classic, so it’s rich, warming and packed with fudgy goodness. Brew it as a frothy tea latte for the ultimate cold-weather indulgence. Don’t worry – there’s s’more where that came from."
Ingredients: Pu'erh tea, brittle pieces (sugar, hazelnut, invert sugar), cinnamon, sugar, marshmallow (sugar, corn syrup, modified cornstarch, gelatin, sodium hexametaphosphate, natural and artificial flavour, blue 1), chocolate chips (cane sugar, cocoa liquor, cocoa butter), natural and artificial flavouring.
I love pu'erh teas and I love chai teas, so this should be a great mix. I never add any kind of sugar/sweetener to either of those teas, just a splash of milk to chai. This tea has added sugar as well as additional sugar in the brittle pieces, marshmallow, and chocolate chips, which ends up making it too sweet for my taste. If, however, you have a sweet tooth and love sweet treats, you will really like this one!
