I had some kind of delicious winter tea latte tonight, and it was worth all $7 it cost me to have it (after you tip $1 and donate $1 to childhood diabetes, it is an expensive trip walking around the District).
I like going here, perhaps more than Sbux, but it's kind of out of my way. It definitely does a good job of getting you in the seasonal spirit, no matter what time of year. The summer teas are so yummy, and the fall and winter drinks are of course, divine. Plus you can get Desert Companion here! Score!
Everyone also is super nice which I appreciate. 4 stars for tasty coffee and tea deliciousness!
