Lately I’ve been enjoying this “Coffee Pu’erh” tea from David’s. I’ve wanted to replace my not-so-big coffee addiction for a while now, but never quite found an equal until this tea. I’m definitely not saying drinking coffee is a bad thing, in fact, coffees are AMAZING!! But on some days, I prefer something milder than coffee.
Pu’erh teas are a type of fermented black tea produced in the Yunnan province of China. Compared to the western black teas, Pu’erh teas give off a darker hue and it has a very strong Chinese herb taste to it. I drink it mostly for its health benefits, not so much the taste. Although mixed with coffee beans it tastes very earthy and creamy.
Health benefits that come with Pu’erh are many, you may know more than I do. For one, it’s a good suppressor for fatty acids in the liver, it’s also used for weight loss. I like it for the purpose of helping with indigestion. I’d love to hear why you drink Pu’erh teas in the comment below.
So this morning, have yourself a cup of tea, I take mine with brown sugar and milk. But whatever your cup is, enjoy it before your day gets busy.
Petite Me.
