Review: Prior Teavana Employee That Missed This Sugar for Years - This sugar is like Magic for tea. I didn't know anything about tea until I started working at Teavana when I was 19. The sugar we used for our tea was this exact same brand, and after I left I thought I'd never see it again since Teavana was shut down shortly after. But to find it on desertcart was such a blessing! When I was a Teavana barista I made tea blends that tasted like chocolate milk, apple pie, Pina colada, fruit punch, blueberry muffins, lemon loaf, and the secret ingredient was always this sugar. This This beet root sugar doesn't layer itself onto the flavors in your tea blend. Compare it to a parfait and a smoothie. One is layered with yogurt, fruit, granola, and honey. The other is all of that but blended together. Both are two taste experiences that are distinctively different from each other. Regular white sugar, Stevia, sweet and low, etc, layers onto the flavors in your tea like a parfait. You end up tasting the tea AND the sugar, instead of JUST the tea. This beetroot sugar blends with the tea like a smoothie, while boosting the flavors of the blend of tea leaves. Therefore, if you use this sugar you can use LESS tea leaves and still get a decent flavor strength. This is the best sugar I have ever used for tea, and you will love it too. By the way, if you have a Breville teamaker just put the beet root sugar rocks in the basket first, then your leaves. The heat of the water will melt the rocks and allow your leaves to rise and expand normally. If you place the rocks into the basket after your leaves then their weight will prevent your leaves from rising and expanding for full flavor until the rocks dissolve. Sometimes the beet root sugar rocks don't dissolve entirely when they are placed after the leaves so just place them first to avoid this minor issue.
Review: Perfect, sweet, good value - For everyone asking, these are identical in size, colour, flavour, and composition to the ones that Teavana used to sell. The Spice Lab’s offering are actually a better value, too — especially if you purchase the five pound bag! The *only* complaint I might have (and even this is minor and nitpicky of me) is that the smaller bags were, in my experience, difficult to reseal. The five pound bags reseal great, however, and it was easy enough to move the smaller amount into another sealed container. (Such as all these Teavana jars that line my counter…) I cannot more strongly recommend this product! It makes an amazing addition to hot or iced tea, as well as coffee. Although, I wouldn’t recommend it stronger coffees, as it’s subtle flavour can easily be overpowered — and, even then, it’s still a great sweetener, but it really shines in tea.

## Features

- GENUINE BELGIAN BROWN ROCK SUGAR CRYSTALS are a large, faceted form of sweet, crystalline sucrose, most often used as an additive to foods for texture or as a garnish for added visual interest. This sugar has a distinct translucent brown color, due to the natural presence of molasses.
- FLAVOR: Less processed than common white sugar, Belgian brown rock sugar has a rich, sweet, slightly smoky flavor. This is due to the presence of molasses. This sugar gives drinks and dishes a delicious, multi-dimensional sweet taste.
- PERFECT TOUCH: Enhance beverages such as coffee or tea with the same sugar sold by Teavana tea shops before closing. This beet sugar is also commonly used for candy, cupcakes, desserts, or added to sweeten any main dish.
- PREMIUM QUALITY: Belgian beet sugar has no added color, unlike amber rock sugar which is made with refined white sugar and caramel coloring. Made in the USA, using premium quality ingredients, this Belgian rock sugar is all-natural, gluten-free, kosher and non-GMO.
- HOMEMADE BEER: This Belgian brown sugar can also be used as a fermentable sugar for beer making, just mix 225-263 Lovibond (600-700 EBC) - 1 Lb Sugar in 1 gal of water to produce a solution with the specific gravity of 1.045.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WOW!
*by W***1 on September 15, 2018*

The sugar arrived today. I intend to use it in my coffee. Since I already had my coffee this morning, I tasted a small piece. Instant heaven! (Can you tell I have a sweet tooth?) It tastes like exotic candy. I've had the piece in my mouth for several minutes; it hasn't dissolved yet. It would probably require very hot tea or coffee to dissolve, which is OK. Even when I opened the bag, I was greeted with an incredible flower-like aroma. I thought the Teavana brand was pretty good, but after I tasted this, I was glad Teavana's price went up outrageously; that's what made me shop around. This sugar is better. TIP: The first time I used this sugar in my coffee, I added the sugar to the empty cup. The coffee came out with very little sweetness at the top & too much sweetness at the bottom of the cup because the sugar did not dissolve quickly enough. The second time I made coffee, I put the sugar ON TOP of the coffee grounds & it came out perfect - even sweetening. If I were a tea drinker, I'd first dissolve the sugar in a small amount of hot water, then add the tea & more hot water after the sugar dissolved.
