These days I often use a mint chocolate flavored tea, that I will link below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-2 wp-block-column\">\n<p>If you like milky thai tea, you may love this brilliant blue twist on the classic drink.  It tastes just like regular thai tea, mild and lightly vanilla&#8217;d. Add some boba to give it a modern twist, or enjoy it hot or iced.  It is loose leaf, so if you need to invest in a tea infuser I suggest a cute little teal nessie one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-d9e60293 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img srcset=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/nessie-801x1024.jpg \" src=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/nessie-801x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-2022\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Hw7uan\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Hw7uan<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-6 wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-container-4 wp-block-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-b84c757c wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img srcset=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/sakuralatte-1024x1024.jpg \" src=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/sakuralatte-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-2024\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Bqorzf\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Bqorzf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a lot of great choices for sakura merch, but I particularly like this ceramic mug with matching spoon and lid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-5 wp-block-column\">\n<p>I don&#8217;t always want flower flavored things, but when I do it&#8217;s often sakura flavored things.

Unfortunately it&#8217;s so niche you can&#8217;t buy it online&#8230; So I offer this as an alternative.  It has a rooibos base instead, but it should be equally delicious for the mint chocolate lovers among us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-50475808 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img srcset=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/pandamug-1024x1024.jpg \" src=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/pandamug-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-2028\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Bro9bk\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/3Bro9bk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-12 wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-container-10 wp-block-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-1e58821d wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img srcset=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/everyday-dose-725x1024.jpg \" src=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/everyday-dose-725x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-2029\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3FJCpyQ\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/3FJCpyQ<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This latte is a mushroom latte; that&#8217;s where the good stuff is at.

That said, the drink would pair well with some flashy mushroom mugs in my opinion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-2d287339 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img srcset=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holostickers-1021x1024.jpg \" src=\"https:\/\/augustaffiliation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holostickers-1021x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-2031\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YfOQtu\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YfOQtu<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>alternatively, grab a regular black mug and accent with holographic stickers of your own choice. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-11 wp-block-column\">\n<p>Health benefit wise- this is my absolute favorite drink.  It boasts better sleep, better digestion, better focus and chasing away brain fog. The star of the show though is the benefit to mood.  Dose is actually an acronym for Dopamine Oxytocin Serotonin and Endorphins, and it is aptly named. I drink at least one often two lattes per day as needed.  It has a bit of caffeine, 44 mg per serving if memory serves- and collagen for an extra health boost.  I like to mix mine with a bit of hot chocolate, and a high protein milk.  I often add some cinnamon, nutmeg etc. for a little spice also.
