BLACK TEA | Loose Leaf Chocolate Mint Tea
Chocolate Mint Tea at a Glance
Our loose leaf chocolate mint is a flavoured black tea led by Ceylon from Sri Lanka, with peppermint from Washington State, made with black tea, blackberry, peppermint and natural flavours. It is medium in caffeine, with chocolate, cool mint and a smooth black tea base that suits after dinner, the holidays and cold winter days. Each 50 g bag makes about 25 cups. It is vegan and vegetarian.
Chocolate Mint Tea Tasting Notes
The first thing you'll notice is cool peppermint over sweet chocolate. It brews into a bright, coppery cup of smooth black tea with soft chocolate and fresh mint, like an after-dinner mint. The finish is cool, clean and lightly sweet. The flavours are natural, so they are subtle and balanced rather than loud.
Pairs With
An after-dinner treat, a plate of shortbread or a cozy evening by the fire.

About the Sri Lanka Tea Regions
The tea is built on high-grown black tea, led by Ceylon from Sri Lanka's Nuwara Eliya, Dimbula and Uva regions, grown at about 1,220 to 2,590 m (4,000 to 8,500 ft) above sea level. These regions are known for a floral bouquet, mild astringency and a bright coppery colour. The flavours come from natural flavouring oils, not crystals, so the tea still shines through.
Frequently Bought Together
How to Brew Chocolate Mint Tea
- Tea: 1 heaping teaspoon of loose leaf tea per 8oz / 240 ml cup.
- Water temperature: 100°C / 212°F, a full rolling boil.
- Steep time: 4 to 5 minutes. Go 2 to 3 minutes for mild and 6 to 7 for strong.
- Serving: Milk and sugar both bring out the chocolate for a richer, velvety cup. Skip the lemon.
- Iced: Use half the water (120 ml) when brewing. Pour the hot tea directly over a large cup filled with ice. As the ice melts, it will dilute the tea to the perfect strength.
- Serving: add milk and sugar or honey for a smooth, mellow cup.
- Iced: use half the usual water at 90°C, steep 3 to 4 minutes, then pour over a glass of ice. Add honey or any sweetener if you like.
