nitrot150 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 So, I usually put a little splenda or sugar in my tea. But I was wondering if anyone has tried coconut milk?? Also, are blended black teas ok?? what are the hot "words" i should be looking for on the ingredients list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted October 21, 2014 Administrators Share Posted October 21, 2014 I love coconut milk in a cup of decaf Earl Grey at night. I have found that I do not enjoy coconut milk in most other teas though (rooibos, herbal etc). You'd be looking for the same words as any other product (sweeteners, soy, wheat, sulphites etc) along with the word "candied". That word "candied" implies a fruit that has been coated in sugar. That's a no-no. Vanilla is another one to watch out for because absolute Whole30 compliance would not allow vanilla due to the alcohol content. And finally, things like "maple sugar pieces" would obv be non-compliant. Not sure about your area but if you have a David's Tea (Canada) or Teavana or Teaopia or any other loose leaf tea store, they'll have enormous selections and you can sniff the tea and check the ingredients right there. Most of the loose leaf teas I have found are blended so beautifully that they don't need sweeteners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitrot150 Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 I usually order from Harney and Sons. My favorite is a cinnamon spice tea...i just looked it up and and it says that there are no added sugars, but I'll look into it more carefully at home, when I look at my can.
