chocolate teas and tisanes are a relatively new innovation in the world of infusion. they first appeared in france, where unlikely flavors such as walnut, watermelon, and even algae appeared alongside now-classic teas. chocolate spice rooibos is a blend of african rooibos, cocoa bits, ginger, chicory root, barley malt, cinnamon sticks and pepper. the taste and aroma are smoky-sweet and richly chocolaty, with just a bit of a ginger-pepper kick. enjoy this ambrosial treat après-ski – or après-anything.
