You Will Love This Tea, Most Ardently!
We can all picture the scene in Pride and Prejudice where Mr. Darcy tells Elizabeth Bennet that he loves her, most ardently. Oh, what a lovely scene it is, a profession of love so beautiful and honest, and then it all goes badly. This calls for cake!
Tea that tastes like cake that is! Most Ardently is a Rooibos and Honeybush tea blend that will have you thinking you just sat down with a delightful slice of red velvet cake straight from the oven. This blend has Red Rooibos, Green Rooibos, and Honeybush, chocolate pieces, white chocolate chips, dark cocoa infused sugar, some beet powder for a beautiful cup and sprinkles just because they are fun!
Why mix Rooibos and Honeybush, you might ask? While both are grown in South Africa and are naturally caffeine-free, it wasn’t until recently that its popularity started growing. Rooibos is slightly bolder with a subtle nuttiness and natural hint of caramel. It accepts other flavors quite easily which makes it an excellent blending choice. Green Rooibos is the more delicate of the two as it is not oxidized and has a more herbal profile. Many people find the flavor of Rooibos to be a bit medicinal, sort of like cough syrup, which is why we love to blend it with ingredients like chocolate! Honeybush has a sweeter flavor and a distinct honey-like aroma. When you blend all of these together you really get the best that this plant native to South Africa has to offer.
Although our Most Ardently blend is missing the cream cheese frosting usually associated with red velvet cake, don’t be ashamed to try a small splash of cream to give this blend that special something extra!
Allergens: Milk (milk powder in the white chocolate chips), Soy Lecithin, Red#40, Yellow #6
This tea is a seasonal release tea released during our 2020 Holiday season.

It’s the second time this week that I’ve had “dessert” for breakfast.
I recommend having this tea on the morning of your birthday, anniversary, graduation, or well… basically any time that you feel like celebrating all day long.
My last sip was about 10 minutes ago and I can still taste the velvety goodness. If you are on the fence with this one…. Get off the fence and order it! You’ll be glad you did.

I can’t stop drinking this amazing cup of heaven! I am addicted! It does tastes like red velvet cake, it is absolutely delicious! It is smooth and warming. No need to add any sweeteners. I’m definitely going to stock up on this… any maybe actually, kinda share!

Perfectly balanced sweetness, an amazing blend! Tastes delicious right after steeping and cooled down, if it’s able to stay in the mug long enough.

I’m definitely reordering this one! It almost makes me feel guilty. Almost. Going with decaf teas sometimes seems like I left the flavor behind, but not with this one!

Delicious! I was so nervous and excited to try this tea! I use to love a rooibos tea called Red Velvet Party. The company closed so I’ve been searching ever since for something similar…BUT MY SEARCH IS FINALLY OVER! This tea tastes JUST like red velvet cake, and it’s so much better than the tea I use to get. It’s so smooth! Every time I make it at work, every one drools. I reached out to Andrea when I hadn’t received my email confirmation yet, and she was wonderful! She was super quick to respond, and was so helpful! I even loved the 1 cup samples I was surprised with, and can’t wait to order those teas as well! Don’t hesitate to buy!!!!!!

I don’t know why it took me so long to try this tea but I’m so glad I finally did. It’s one of my absolute favorite teas now. It really does taste like red velvet cake.

This one has become a fan favorite in our family. Even for those folks who “don’t like tea”. This is one I look to have on hand all year and stock up when it isn’t in season. Great for a desert tea or to kick a sweet tooth when you find yourself looking for something a little less healthy.
