This tea is amazing! It smells and tastes like a cinnamon bun!! It has enough natural sweetness that I was just about finished it before I realized I hadn’t added any sweetener, but it’s not overpowering.

Interesting Fact About Dulce de Leche

Dulce de leche, a sweet, creamy caramel-like sauce, is a beloved confection in many Latin American countries. Its name translates to "sweet milk" in Spanish, which aptly describes its primary ingredients: milk and sugar. The mixture is slowly heated and stirred until it undergoes a Maillard reaction, resulting in its characteristic rich flavor and brown color.
There are many stories about the origins of dulce de leche. One popular legend suggests that it was accidentally discovered in Argentina in 1829. According to the tale, a maid was making lechada (a milk and sugar drink) for General Juan Manuel de Rosas and forgot it on the stove. Upon her return, she found that the mixture had turned into a thick, caramelized substance, which became the beloved dulce de leche we know today.
Dulce de leche is incredibly versatile and is used in a variety of desserts. It can be spread on toast, used as a filling for cakes and pastries, drizzled over ice cream, or simply enjoyed by the spoonful. It’s a staple in many traditional sweets, including alfajores (shortbread cookies filled with dulce de leche) and churros.
