Taster’s Review:

Crème brûlée?  Yes, please!

Crème brûlée is my favorite dessert.  I don’t find it often when we dine out – mostly because we can’t often afford to dine in restaurants fancy enough to offer it – but when I see it on the menu, I do try to save room for dessert!

But with this tisane, I can afford to enjoy my favorite dessert any time!  The rooibos base is perfect because it is naturally caffeine-free so it makes for a delightful treat after dinner without worry that I’ll be over-caffeinated.  The rooibos is lightly nutty which mingles very nice with the creamy flavor of crème brûlée.

I can taste the creamy baked custard flavor of the crème brûlée, it tastes smooth and sweet, and it even has a caramel-y sweet taste to it too, just like the crunchy caramelized sugar that is burnt on top of the classic dessert.  All that is missing is the crunch – and while I do love that crunch – the fact that this is calorie free more than makes up for the lack of the crunchy texture.

This is really an awesome treat!  Thank you – Tea, Oh!
