Milk Chocolate Easter Bunny with Cream Earl Grey
Like with the mini eggs, a touch of milk in the Cream Earl Grey has a similar mouthfeel to the creamy chocolate in this easter bunny. The balanced milk chocolate notes are enhanced by the vanilla and bergamot (citrus) undertones in the cream earl grey. As the easter bunny is smooth and contains only one flavour, pairing it with a tea with additional flavours proves complementary.
Sencha with Chocolate Creme Eggs
The savoury and creamy notes of these chocolate creme eggs are a match made in heaven with the creamy and buttery notes of this green tea from Japan. As these chocolate eggs are filled with creme, pairing with a tea made with milk would be overpowering. When pairing tea with food, usually one or the other takes precedence. In this case, the heavy chocolate creme eggs are balanced out with the light, bright notes of Sencha.
Happy Easter! Great pairing. Time to start my ‘Morning Routine’ with some mini eggs for breakfast! 😛
Delicious!
