This might be bergamot rather than sugar. A lot of producers will include them in their tea bags, though not in the shape of llamas.

Bergamot? Shaped like that? But bergamot is just another flower that tea can be flavoured with.
I am very confused.

They press the flowers (along with citrus fruit and the like) to produce oils, which can then be condensed and pressed into pellet or llama shapes.

Are other animal shapes allowed?

It’s sugar, it melted into the hot water.

I’ll take your word for it considering you drank the tea, but for what it’s worth, what I was describing also melts into oils and incorporates into the water. It’s just a neat way to provide a little flavor boost.

Those aren't llamas, they are alpacas.

I need some sleep. I thought it was a bag of cheap toy army men with two llamas figures.

Plastic tea bags are horrible: they shed billions of microplastic particles.

This tea bag is pre-ruined for your drinking inconvenience.

Is there anywhere in North America (Canada ideally) to get these?

It's long lost old world knowledge that llama bone is sweet, so what you have here is in fact, ground-up llama bone shaped like llamas ;)

What kind of psychopath adds sugar to teabags by default?
This is heresy!
(The llama sugars are adorable, I want them all, just... Not in my tea bags)
