After dropping sugar from my diet recently, I had a hard time finding a hot tea that I liked. I tried tea after tea and couldn’t help but wonder how anybody ever could handle it unsweetened. Then I finally found one that was good and that actually had a semi-sweet taste to it.

The name of this wonderful naturally sweetened tea was Celestial Seasonings Cinnamon Apple Spice tea. After reading the ingredients, the only one that was unfamiliar to me that might possibly be sweet was roasted carob. So, I did a bit of research on google and discovered that, sure enough, carob is a naturally sweet ingredient that was a blessing to me in my unsweetened tea.

The funny thing is that I can drink and enjoy regular unsweetened tea now that I have trained my mouth to taste the slightest sweetness! You have no idea how big that is! Me? Unsweetened tea or any other drink? No way!!! Guess there are still plenty of opportunites in this life for surprise…and change! Thank goodness for that!!
