Tea-Infused Hot Cocoa

Best known for its chocolate bars infused with teas like Earl Grey or Chamomile & Honey, The Tea Room Chocolate Company is putting a new twist on hot chocolate. 

The company, founded by Swiss chocolate maker Heinz Rimann, has a line of gourmet, organic, tea-infused drinking chocolates that combine the subtle flavor intricacies of tea with the comforting indulgences of chocolate. The drinking chocolates are made with USDA Organic cocoa shavings and flavored with real steeped tea, like Honeybush Caramel, Green Earl Grey and Chamomile & Honey. Each offers a different taste experience ranging from white to milk to dark chocolate. Flavors include: Chamomile & Honey, a relaxing blend of organic white chocolate shavings infused with organic wild chamomile tea and organic wild honey; Honeybush Caramel, creamy organic milk chocolate infused with a sweet mixture of honeybush tea (similar to rooibos) and caramel; and for dark chocolate lovers, Green Earl Grey, a rich dark cacao infused with a citrusy balance of organic bergamot and green tea. Each container has 7 ounces of tea-infused organic chocolate shavings, making the drink compatible for a water-based cocoa, cream- or milk-based cocoa, a frappe or even a chocolate sauce. The Tea Room teas are imported from locations such as South Africa, India, Sri Lanka, Japan, Europe and South America. To purchase, visit thetearoom.biz. —Nicole Potenza Denis
