Tea & Chocolate Tasting!

Did You Know?

Pairing tea with a small amount of good quality chocolate can be a fun and safe way to

help people enjoy an indulgence without breaking their weight loss goals!

Tea & Chocolate Tasting Guidelines:

As a rule, green and herbal teas go well with white or milk chocolate. Any tea that takes milk

(such as English Morning) would also pair nicely with milk chocolate. Black flavored teas pair

well with plain semisweet or bittersweet chocolate. Try using different percentages of dark chocolate

for tasting. The higher the percentage of cacao, the less sweet the chocolate

will be. Try pairing a less sweet chocolate with a tea that has some natural sweetness.

Example: Taste 72% dark chocolate with Raspberry Royal Rooibos.

When choosing tea and chocolate think about pairing subtle flavor profiles.

Example: Oolong Orange Blossom pairs nicely with orange flavored dark chocolate.

Tasting Order:

Sip Tea (without sugar!)

Taste Chocolate

Sip Tea Again!

Observe how the chocolate actually sweetens their palette making

the tea taste sweet even without sugar! This is a great concept for indulging without

the guilt! Tealightful Treasures Dessert Teas also make a great substitute for dessert

even without chocolate!

Drink This Instead Of That!

Did You Know?

Evidence has shown that Americans get 20% of their daily caloric intake from beverages.

There is also evidence that cutting back on sugary drinks or replacing them with unsweetened

tea may help with weight control and lower the risk of diabetes.

Green tea is an excellent choice for children and adults for many reasons:

1. It’s low in caffeine - about 20 mg. for a oz. cup!

2. It’s high in antioxidants!

3. It contains about 436 mg. of vitamin C per cup!

4. Research suggests that it may increase metabolism

Antioxidants and Vitamin C

Green tea has a high content of vitamins and minerals. It contains about the same amount

of vitamin C as a lemon, approximately 436 mg. Black tea contains only 239 mg. of vitamin

C. Green tea also contains several B vitamins, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid and pantothenic

acid. It also contains magnesium, potassium and manganese. Last but not least green tea

is high in fluoride. A cup provides approximately 0.1 mg. of fluoride, which is higher than a

cup of fluorinated water!
