Description

Have you been looking for true love in a teacup? Then you're sure to fall 'head over heels' for our Valentine's tea. It deliciously combines the luxurious flavor of fresh-dipped chocolate-covered strawberries with the taste of premium Ceylon black tea. Don't wait until February to treat yourself to this romantic tea, give it a try today.

Story

Although there were several Christian martyrs named Valentine, the day probably took its name from a priest who was martyred about 270 AD by the emperor Claudius II. According to legend, the priest signed a letter to his jailor's daughter, whom he had befriended and with whom he had fallen in love, "from your Valentine." The holiday also had origins in the Roman festival of Lupercalia, held in mid February. The festival, which celebrated the coming of spring, included fertility rites and the pairing off of women with men by lottery.

"Amazing. Actually tastes like a chocolate-covered strawberry: but not at all a fake candy-taste. Very genuine fresh strawberry smell/taste as well as a good strong chocolate. Would recommend only 4 minutes steeping though, it can get bitter with the full 5. "

"This tea is delicious! Perfect for when you need to satisfy your sweet-tooth! There is the perfect amount of chocolate flavor, not too much, not too little. I just let it steep for about 5 mins & add some sugar/sweetner & I'm good to go! I will definitely be ordering this again!"
