Detailed Description
When the weather turns chillier and the days are growing ever shorter, the smell of fresh baking gingerbread is just what you need to feel cozy and content. Winter is a great time. A time to snuggle in with good books, a time to enjoy the slopes or the skating rink, and a time to delight your senses with aromatic spicy goodies.

Warm yourself from the inside out with this aromatic black tea blend. The brewed tea emits a heady, spicy aroma and the cup is perfectly proportioned. The flavors of gingerbread spices dance on your tongue, with no one spice overwhelming the others. Destined to be a spice lovers new favorite tea!

Ingredients: Organic China black tippy tea, organic cinnamon, organic cloves, organic ginger and gingerbread flavoring.

Brew tea at 212º - steep for 3 minutes.

1 cup water

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup oil (canola, sunflower…)

2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 tsp baking soda

2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Preheat oven to 350 and grease/line muffin tins.

Boil water and steep the tea for 4 minutes. Strain and set aside.

In a mixing bowl beat the eggs then add sugar, molasses and oil. Beat until blended. In a separate bowl combine the flour, salt, soda and spices. Slowly add the flour mix to the eggs mixture and mix until blended. Add the brewed tea. Fold in the blueberries. Pour batter 2/3 full in the muffin tray and bake for 30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

These muffins are very moist and delicious. Try them with a cup of S&V tea!

Absolutely wonderful 3/6/2022
I love ginger. I love gingerbread. I love this blend. Could honestly use more ginger, but... well, not everyone is a ginger fiend. Neither the gingerbread flavor nor the black tea flavor come through particularly strong, but it's a very well-balanced delicate tea. I chug it straight but I can picture it being excellent with cream as well. It loses a great deal of flavor when cold, so icing it is not recommended. Apples or gingersnaps make for a wonderful snack pairing (yes I eat more things with ginger in them alongside this tea - shush).

Recommended anytime for a sweet treat. 12/22/2021
Definitely tastes like gingerbread. Black tea is not overpowering. Great any time of the day. I give it an 8 out of 10. Recommended.

NOT JUST FOR THE HOLIDAYS 5/27/2021
Yummm! This Gingerbread Black Tea is exactly as described. It has a wonderful aroma, robust flavor & will delight your tastebuds! Need to tone it down a bit- just add a splash of cream. So yummy anytime of year. Don’t wait for the Holidays.

Enjoyable yearound! 7/22/2019
This tea was out of stock when I first went to order it. I now know why. It tastes so good and has a very natural gingerbread taste unlike other gingerbread teas I've tasted. Tastes almost like a gingerbread cookie. Very yummy!

Better Than Cookies !! 11/22/2018
~Never could have imagined a gingerbread tea could taste so good; such a warm & comforting spice mix with a well balanced black tea. :-)

Great for the holidays 8/3/2018
Last winter, I visited the website a few times, and this tea was sold out - that was a sign that it must be good, and it definitely was! I received an email when it was back in stock, and immediately ordered it. A light gingerbread flavor, not too strong, but enjoyable for those who like gingerbread. A MUST during the winter holidays, and beyond.
 
sublime 12/26/2017
This tea smells and tastes amazing. Perfect robust flavor, not sweet, just flavorful and spicy. Absolutely delightful and one I keep in stock!

Subtle spices that satisfy your sweet craving 8/23/2017
If you love gingerbread, this tea will be perfect for you. The aroma and flavor are replete with subtle hints of ginger, clove, and cinnamon, just like the gingerbread or pumpkin pie spice you're used to in your desserts. I like it a little sweet and, because I'm a nut for that spicy flavor, I actually add a few extra whole cloves to the mix when I steep it...but it's delicious without that. I can totally imagine serving this to rave reviews come Christmas time...but it's summer now and I'm still guzzling this tea. It's delicious!

Gingerbread cookie in a glass or cup 6/20/2017
The smell of gingerbread cookies is wonderful when you first open the package of this tea. Its good hot and absolutely delicious iced. I prepared it iced and served it with an orange slice. The tea is smooth and complements the gingerbread and other spiced flavors that are subtle but good.
- Laura Ann Grymes, TX
 
The best gingerbread tea! 2/21/2017
Ive ordered some of this every winter for the past few years. No other gingerbread tea can compare. Its delicious plain, but with a little sugar the spices are brought out that much more. The only thing is that its very strongly scented, so you might want to keep it clear of any other teas you might have, for fear of cross-contamination.

My Favorite Black Tea 2/17/2017
This Gingerbread black tea is exquisite, I have quite a few different black teas from S&V but this one really stands out as my favorite. Smells incredible and with a touch of honey it really brings out the gingerbread flavor, I Love it.
- NELSON PADILLA, NY
 
Perfect! 12/3/2016
Absolutely, perfectly delicious! I dont know how a gingerbread cookie was so wonderfully liquified, but it was done. Hard to believe I can now enjoy practically calorieless gingerbread!
- Bethany Giles, MD
 
One of my favorite teas! 10/30/2016
I love all things spice and this tea does not disappoint. Wonderful aroma and flavor!

Could Not Wait for the Holidays 10/3/2016
I ordered this tea thinking I could wait until the holidays to open it. Nope. Every time I opened the pantry where I store my tea, the smell of the Gingerbread Black tempted me. Well, this morning I gave in and I was not disappointed. Many flavored teas offer a wonderful aroma but disappoint when it comes to flavor. Not this one. Perfect on all counts.

10 Stars! 5/12/2016
This is fresh baked gingerbread in a tea cup. S&V says this tea is perfectly portioned and they are 100% correct. The spices and flavoring make this the perfect gingerbread tea. Months ago I started a lower carb very little sugar life style and quickly dropped 48 pounds of excess baggage. Rather than eat a sugary refined carbohydrate snack I drink a flavored tea instead. Gingerbread black satisfies the craving for a sweet treat without the carbs, calories or sugar. Absolutely guilt-free decadence. This is excellent as a self-drinker and excellent with a splash of cream. This needs no sweetener but if you must I suggest you start small with a 1/4 teaspoon. Gingerbread black is definitely above and beyond 5 stars. A hearty thank you to S&V for the great tea.

My favorite! 11/25/2015
This is my favorite S&V tea. Great in the afternoon when I just need a lift. The spice is just right. Excellent with a ginger snap or two!

Essence of gingerbread 11/13/2015
What can you say about a tea that smells and tastes like the very essence of gingerbread? Good show. One note, though: the ginger part doesn’t seem to have much of a shelf life. Cup early, cup often.
- Mycroft, MA
 
Definitely on my Top 10 list for chai blends! 10/28/2015
Chai was the first tea I sipped almost a decade ago, so Ill always have a special fondness for chai. Ive tried plenty of chai blends and this is one of my favorites. Im sipping this one right now on this blustery day and it really hits the spot. Autumn starts the avalanche of chai! This one has a nice robustness, somehow a sweetness to it, plenty of spice. I cant even believe I like a ginger tea this much, since ginger is one of my least favorite ingredients in tea. Its a perfect blend!

My favorite! 6/10/2014
This is the tea that I cannot be without! The aroma and the taste are a perfect blend and the ginger really gets me going in the morning. I like it spicy so I ask S&V to make my order extra spicy and they are happy to oblige.
 
One of My Favorites 1/7/2014
This is one of my favorite teas from S&V. Perfect when you are craving something slightly sweet but not overpoweringly so.
 
Convinced there are little gingerbread men in this tea... 1/14/2013
This stuff is so good. I am really enjoying this cup. I tried it first unsweetened and then threw some rock sugar into the mug. Both are enjoyable, but a little sweetening brings this cup to new heights. This is pure gingerbread flavor. I want to blend this with a little of teavanas toasted nut brûlée. Some people may classify this as a holiday tea. I come from a family who eats gingerbread windmills with tea as dessert all year round so I personally dont think that one is limited to a season to rush and finish their stash off. Only reason it didnt get 5 stars... the quality of the black tea is medium grade at best, but I have come to expect this with highly flavored dessert varieties such as this one. Highly recommended.
