Tip
If you have a craving (like chocolate) but, don't want the calories..try having a cup of tea that has that flavour in it.

Oolong teas are wonderful, both in bouquet and taste. Multiple infusions, in fact, the 3rd infusion is called the "champagne" of oolongs.

LOOSE LEAVES now has it's own blend!! Strawberry Rhubarb just went on the shelves Friday and it is delicious.
