Chocolate mint tea is blend of richness of chocolate with the health benefits of mint. Chocolate mint tea is mostly preffered during dinners. It is a kind of black tea with flavoring of chocolate and enticing aroma of peppermint leaves. The mint in this tea makes it wonderfully refreshing while it is sweet like a dessert from the chocolate. The brewing time required for this type of tea is 4 to 5 minutes.

Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of rooibos for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the pot, cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes. Pour into your cup; add milk and sugar to taste.

Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water].
