Daintree Estates Australian Grown Roasted Cocoa Shell Tea
Each 400g bag makes up to 160 cups of hot cocoa tea.
The other hot drink!
If you've never tried roasted cocoa shell tea before, you're in for a treat.
It's refreshingly tasty and satisfying, easy and quick to prepare, and highly nutritious.
Our cocoa is grown by Aussie farmers in Far North Queensland near the ancient Daintree Rainforest. Colourful ripe cocoa pods are hand picked twice each year, and then split open to remove the seeds. The seeds (beans) are then fermented, sun dried, and roasted to perfection. The roasted cocoa beans are then winnowed to break the kernel into small pieces (nibs) ready for chocolate making, and to separate the outer shell 'flakes' which end up in our amazing Daintree Estates Cocoa Tea.
Roasted cocoa bean shell is naturally high in fibre, low in fat, gluten free and cholesterol free.
The nourishing hot drink
Cocoa was called the 'food of the gods' by the ancient Mayans and Aztecs for a very good reason. Today cocoa is widely recognised recognised as a superfood, loaded with powerful antioxidants and naturally high in minerals such as magnesium and potassium. Cocoa contains a natural stimulant called theobromine, which has a similar impact on alertness and stamina to caffeine, but is much gentler on the central nervous system and isn't addictive.
Warning: Theobromine in cocoa is toxic to dogs, cats and other animals so keep it away from your pets.
Instructions for preparation:
- Place Stainless Steel Tea Infuser in mug with one heaped teaspoon of Daintree Estates Cocoa Tea
- Pour in freshly boiled water
- Allow to soak or steep for 2-3 minutes before drinking removing the strainer
- Remember to say 'aaah' after each sip
One 400g bag can make up to 160 drinks depending on how intense you like your hot cocoa tea.
Used cocoa bean shell is naturally biodegradeable and provides excellent nutrients for your garden. Add it to your compost or toss it on your garden as a natural mulch.
Pro Tip! Grind Daintree Estates Cocoa Tea in a coffee or nut grinder to produce a rough powder. It will take up less space in your storage jar, and there will be more surface area for flavour release to boost the intensity of your hot cocoa tea.
Make it your own
We enjoy our hot Cocoa Tea daily. The Aztecs routinely drank their cocoa mixed with cinnamon and chilli. After tasting it that way, we can understand why! Experiment with your own personal blend using dried herbs and spices such as cinnamon, chilli flakes, dried orange peel, nutmeg, ginger powder or peppermint leaves.
Cocoa Tea is best enjoyed hot without milk or sugar. If you need it sweet, choose honey. If you like it stronger, just add more.
Ingredients: Australian Roasted Cocoa Bean Shell. Made in Australia from 100% Australian ingredients.
