REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS
Orange Spice Black Tea (Stash Tea)

M&Ms
Cacao Green (The Loose Leaf)
Price: $11
Can’t get enough chocolate? We’ll give you a tea solution — pair your M&Ms with The Loose Leaf's Cacao Green. These two ingredients were made for each other. Cacao, called the food of Gods, brings its rich dark chocolate flavor combined with the lightly sweet, nutty flavor of the kukicha twig tea.
SKITTLES

You’ll taste the rainbow and see the rainbow drinking Pink Citrus Magik with your Skittles. This fruity, citrusy green tea blend channels your inner sorceress with a magikal ingredient that turns this brew into a playful pink delight (make sure to get a bright blue flower in each brew). If the first steep is blue, add a drop of lemon and watch for an enchanting purple hue!
SNICKERS
Fireside Maté Chai (Tea Head)

You're not you when you're hungry or tired, so we recommend snacking on your Snickers with Tea Head's Fireside Maté Chai — it blends energizing yerba maté with traditional chai spices to pack an energizing punch.

STARBURST
French Lemon Ginger (Art of Tea)

Said to boast many healthful properties, this herbal brew will give you a smooth, citrus boost. You can enjoy French Lemon Ginger in many ways: hot, over ice, as the liquid in a smoothie, or steeped with your favorite sweetener.
KIT KAT
