Ingredients & Lore

blended with black tea & natural vanilla flavor

From the Aztecs to the Indonesians, vanilla was first added to chocolate to soften its bitterness. In 1841, a 12-year-old Reunion slave, Edmond Albius, figured out how to hand pollinate vanilla blooms that led to vanilla plantations in India, Tahiti and Indonesia although 75% of the world's vanilla today still comes from Madagascar and Reunion. Hugh Morgan created the first vanilla flavored sweets, and Queen Victoria's love for them made vanilla candy a huge seller. Nearly one-third of all ice cream sales (29%) in the U.S. is vanilla and it remains the second priciest spice in the world (after saffron).
