Vanilla tea! Naturally caffeine-free, so enjoy it anytime of the day!

Vanilla story begins with the Totonaco Indians of Mexico, who were the first to unearth its secret. They fell to the Aztecs, who were in turn soon conquered by the Spaniard, under the leadership of Harnando Cortez. Cortez brought his precious plunder, including a few beans of vanilla, back to Spain. He also brought back cocoa. The two were mixed together, and the Spanish nobles spend the next hundred years indulging in the pleasant drink. It was only in the 17th Century that the taste of vanilla became valued on its very own.
