Christmas teas

Tried the new Twinnings Christmas tea at Costa. It's very festive - it seems to be blended with the spices of the season.

Anyone know if you can buy them at all? I tried the M&S ones but they just seem to be normal tea bags in Christmas packaging.

Thanks for that.

Looks lovely, I'm going to order it on-line.
At the moment I'm drinking poached pear flavoured tea. Also very festive.

I'm on the fence about some of these specific flavoured teas. The Twinnings Nutty Chocolate just tastes of warm water with cocoa nibs.

I guess some are just better than others though.

It's Twinings, not Twinnings.

And nearly all chocolate teas taste of cocoa because that's what they use - roasted cocoa beans.

Cocoa doesn't become chocolate until you add sugar and fat to it, it's something completely different.

That said I love a good winter spiced tea, Twinings did an amazing Christmas Chai last year, not sure if it's still available.
