There's chocolate in my tea...and berries and booze! The perfect start to an extra long weekend, wouldn't you agree?
I have been having so much fun experimenting with frozen treats for this series, that I fear I've lost my baking mojo. To be honest, I have not had much time for anything more elaborate in the kitchen.
In fact, my freezer is filled with all sorts of frozen concoctions; some not so share worthy and others waiting to be photographed and blogged. And everyday I get to hear about how little space there is for actual food. My advice to the man - suck it up, literally! 😉
Now, if you have been hanging here with me long enough, you already know I am a tea girl. I am also a big fan of DAVIDsTEA. So, if you are ever stumped for a gift for me, look no further.
Chocolate Rocket is a mix of Yerba mate, cocoa nibs, almonds, roasted chicory root and raspberries. You can have it hot, cold or berried and boozed up on a stick. Either way, it certainly is The Ultimate Trip it claims to be. And these Chocolate Rocket CosmopoliTEA Pops are a one-way shuttle to the coolest spot on the moon!
Won't you join me?

What a fantastic idea! I am just waiting for some bananas to ripen so I can make my next batch. Will have to try making popsicles with some of it 🙂
