About Sweet Cacao Mint

The perfect, guilt-free way to indulge your sweet tooth. Our Sweet Cacao Mint is a delicious herbal tea that perfectly captures the classic flavor of a dark chocolate mint. We blend rich, roasted cacao nibs and powder with a wave of bright, cooling peppermint. A touch of sweet licorice root rounds out the blend, providing a lingering sweetness without any sugar.

This is the ultimate after-dinner treat or cozy evening comfort. It’s a rich, velvety, and deeply satisfying caffeine-free cup that tastes like dessert in a mug, allowing you to relax and indulge without a second thought.

Your Questions About Sweet Cacao Mint, Answered.

How is this different from your Chocolate Mint Mate?

Our Chocolate Mint Mate is a caffeinated, energizing blend made with yerba mate. This Sweet Cacao Mint is a caffeine-free, herbal dessert tea designed for relaxation and indulgence.

Is this tea sweet like hot chocolate?

It has a wonderful natural sweetness from the licorice root, but it is not sugary like a typical hot cocoa mix. It has the rich, deep flavor of dark cacao balanced by mint.

Is the peppermint flavor very strong?

The peppermint is bright and refreshing, but it's carefully balanced with the rich cacao so that neither flavor overpowers the other. It's a perfect harmony of chocolate and mint.

FAQs Simply Answered

Are YBTCO’s Teas Truly Organic?

Yes, every ingredient we source is certified USDA Organic. Our commitment is to craft our blends using only teas and botanicals from growers whose agricultural practices steward a better tomorrow.

While Yerba Buena Tea Co. as a company has not yet completed its own formal USDA Organic certification, our standards for purity and sustainability are unwavering. When you sip our tea, you’re tasting a commitment to clean soil, fresh air, and the honest labor of growers who share our belief that tea should be as good for the earth as it is for your cup. You can taste this commitment in our Connoisseur Collection.

Where Are Your Teas Blended and Packaged?

Every YBTCO tea is hand-blended in small batches in our dedicated tea kitchen located in beautiful Salem, Oregon.

Our process is slow by design. Blending in small lots allows us to ensure every pouch delivers maximum freshness, flavor, and the just-picked aroma that makes our teas special. It's a level of craftsmanship you can taste in every cup, especially in our Connoisseur Collection. We package each order with care so you can enjoy a touch of the Pacific Northwest, wherever you are.

Do Your Teas Contain Allergens or Gluten?

Your safety and enjoyment matter deeply to us. All YBTCO teas are naturally gluten-free and blended in a dedicated facility that does not process tree nuts (except coconut), wheat, barley, or rye.

The only common allergen you’ll find in our collection is coconut, which we use in select blends like our Maven Blend for its creamy, tropical note. We use no added flavorings, colorings, or artificial ingredients, just whole leaves, spices, and botanicals as nature intended.

If you have specific questions or sensitivities, our team is always happy to help you find the perfect tea with peace of mind. Please feel free to contact us.

What Is Your Tea Refill?

We believe good tea, and good habits, should be sustainable. That’s why YBTCO offers our teas in two forms to reduce waste and keep your tea fresh:

  • Start with a Signature Tin: Our beautiful, reusable, and recyclable tins are perfect for keeping your tea fresh on the shelf. They also make a wonderful present, which is why they are featured in our Gifts for Tea Lovers Collection.

  • Restock with a Refill Bag: When you're running low, simply order a refill bag to top up your tin. Our refill bags use minimal packaging and ensure you always have the freshest possible tea on hand.

This practice means less environmental impact and a ritual that feels good every time you open the lid.

What Is Your Shipping Policy?

We strive to get your tea to you as quickly and efficiently as possible so you can start enjoying it. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Processing Time: All orders are hand-packed with care and typically ship from our Salem, Oregon tea kitchen within 2 - 3 business days.
  • Shipping Methods: We ship via USPS and UPS. You will be able to select your preferred carrier and shipping speed during checkout.
  • Shipping Costs: Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on the weight of your order and your location. We offer free standard shipping on all orders over $70.
  • Order Tracking: Once your order has shipped, you will receive an email confirmation with a tracking number so you can follow your tea's journey to your door.
