Alpine Spice Tea - Black Tea

I love mulled wine. This is the best non-alcoholic version I've ever found. I'm sad they renamed it. It's bold and can be over steeped. But once you get the water to tea ratio and the time down it's a party in your mouth. Better than any alcohol version I've found! It's a woodsy cinnamon taste. A splash of monk fruit and it's wonderful to sit and sip on the patio overlooking the mountains.

Sipping this as I type! (Lol, it IS autumn here, even if it is currently 80°s.) This is the perfect winter tea. It's not quite a chi, even though it shares some of the same spices. This is more of a lighter, milder, delicate (for a black), slightly complex cousin to a chi. The smell alone is like a memory of the winter season with cinnamon and clove. The taste it's-self wraps you up like a warm comfy blanket. It does taste like spiced wine, but not in a heavy way, it doesn't attempt to cover the yummy bright coppery flavor of the black tea. It is there merely as a compliment to remind you of the beautiful season.
