Advent Calendar Day 22

Today's tea is a holiday classic...Sleigh Ride!


Name:  Sleigh Ride


Brand:  David's Tea


Primary Type:  Herbal


Dry Scent:  This smells warm and slightly spicy, of apples, cinnamon, cloves, and with a warm, nutty scent of popcorn and sharp hints of cranberries.  It really does smell like something you would drink on a sleigh ride through snow on a crisp, clear winter's day.


Steeping Time: 8-10 min


Steeped Flavour:  This is sharply sweet, tasting of cranberries, apples and cinnamon, with buttery, nutty flavour hints of the popcorn.  So yummy and warm, and very soothing.


Food/Drink Pairings:  This would be perfect with some mulled apple juice or mulled wine.  It's a perfect holiday drink, and with bourbon, whiskey or scotch it's even better.


Rating out of Six Tails:
5.5/6
