Chocolate Tea which became instantly popular among our customers. So, what makes chocolate tea so effective and loved by so many people around the world?Chocolate contains powerful antioxidants known as polyphenols – healthy micronutrients found in wine, berries and grapes. In addition, it also contains large amounts of catechins and epicatechins – which are beneficial micronutrients in green tea.

As a result, chocolate tea provides the following health benefits:

  1. Reduces The Risk Of Cancer

The flavanols present in chocolate have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties, which keep free radicals away. They help in attacking cells and reduce the risk of cancer.

  1. Lowers Body Mass Index (BMI)

There has been a lot of discussion on how chocolate can reduce BMI, i.e. your measurement in terms of height and weight. According to a US study conducted on 1,000 Californians, it was found that participants who consumed more chocolate could have a lower BMI. Please note that exercise or any diet had no effect on these results.

Researchers at the University of Reading became interested in identifying whether the flavanols present in chocolate could improve vision. For this, he conducted a small experiment and ultimately concluded that chocolate improves vision.

  1. Helps In Diabetes

There is a misconception that chocolate tea is not a good drink for diabetics. According to a study conducted at the University of L'Aquila, the right dose of chocolate flavonoids can increase insulin function in the human body and improve metabolism. Therefore, it is not necessary for diabetics to avoid chocolate tea, although it would be better to see some more studies.

  1. Lowers Blood Pressure

Some time ago, it was observed that people in Central America had lower blood pressure than people living in other continents. Studies have shown that the reason for this change was their chocolate consumption. Chocolate contains flavanols that may improve nitric oxide levels in the blood, increase the function of your blood vessels, and reduce blood pressure.

Drinking Tea And Eating Chocolate Will Not Speed Up Old Age!

Berlin: If zinc is taken along with food items like wine, coffee, tea and chocolate, it can prove helpful in protecting against oxidative stress. Such a claim has been made in a study. Researchers at Germany's Erlangen-Nuremberg University said that oxidative stress is partly responsible for aging and decreased life expectancy.

In this study it was found that zinc activates a biological molecule which is effective in protecting against oxidative stress.

“It is certainly possible that wine, coffee, tea or chocolate may be available with zinc in the future,” said Ivanovy Burmazov of the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg.

Zinc is a mineral which humans need in small quantities to remain healthy.

This study has been published in Nature Chemistry magazine.

What Will Happen If We Add Chocolate To Tea?

Adding chocolate to tea can make a delicious and wonderful drink. You can also use cocoa powder, chocolate syrup or a piece of chocolate to enhance the flavor of your tea. Some popular combinations include chocolate and black tea, chocolate and chai tea, or chocolate and peppermint tea. Experimenting with different types of chocolate and tea can yield delightful flavor combinations. Keep in mind that adding chocolate can also change the caffeine content and sweetness of the tea, so it's best to adjust the other ingredients accordingly. Enjoy your chocolate infused tea!

Guidelines For Mixing Tea And Chocolate

The key to preparing a successful tea and chocolate tasting is to ensure that the flavor profiles are well balanced. We recommend choosing high-quality chocolate with varying percentages of cocoa, including white chocolate, milk chocolate, and one or more dark chocolate. You can choose teas that have complementary or contrasting flavors; Both experiences will enhance the flavor and aroma of the chocolate, and vice versa.

To begin the tasting process, take a small piece of chocolate and let it melt slowly and thoroughly on the tongue. Then pour some of the tea into the back of your mouth to make sure it reaches all of your taste buds. Swallowing instead of sipping will allow air into the mouth, which will intensify the taste and aroma.

Take another small piece of chocolate, and notice how the tea has affected its flavor, taste, and aroma compared to the first piece. Does it taste sweeter? More bitter? Nutty, fruity or more floral? At this point you may choose to cleanse your palate with a sip of water and reverse the process: taste the tea, take a piece of chocolate, then taste the tea a second time to see which you like. A slight change is visible. 

Tea Paired With Milk Chocolate

Milk chocolate can contain from 10% to 55% cocoa with cocoa butter, sugar, and milk solids or powder. This ingredient list is what gives milk chocolate its sweet, smooth flavor and creamy, melt-in-the-mouth texture.

Milk chocolate is the most versatile type of chocolate to pair with tea. Because of its creamy, milky consistency, milk chocolate can help balance the tart, strong flavor and high tannin content of strong black tea. Teas with warm spices such as chai tea are also a good match for milk chocolate.

Tea Paired With Dark Chocolate

Compared to milk chocolate, dark chocolate has a higher concentration of cocoa – at least 55%, and up to 100% (though usually not more than 90%). The flavor of dark chocolate is powerful and rich with bitter notes.

Mixing dark chocolate with tea is a little more difficult than milk chocolate. Choosing a tea that is too astringent may overwhelm your taste buds with bitterness. Plus, the delicate tea will overpower the strong cocoa flavor of the dark chocolate.

Create a happy medium by mixing your dark chocolate with medium-dark tea, such as fruit, smoky, ginger, nutty, spicy or mint flavored teas. Aged teas like pu-erh can also be a good choice to pair with dark chocolate.

Tea Paired With White Chocolate

White chocolate is made from cocoa butter, sugar, and milk powder, without the cocoa solids present in milk and dark chocolate. There is no trace of bitterness in this dessert, and it is completely sweet, smooth and buttery. It also has the creamiest mouthfeel of all chocolates.

Due to its sweet flavor and creamy consistency, white chocolate can hold its own against stronger bitter, botanical and grassy teas like matcha. White chocolate also pairs beautifully with the nutty and floral profile.
