Strawberry sweetness and a tart hibiscus edge on a white tea base. Makes a beautiful pink iced tea. Cold brew overnight for the cleanest flavor. The tartness works in a cocktail syrup – mix with sparkling water and a squeeze of lime.

What’s in it

Every herb in the blend, and where to read about it on its own.

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Hibiscus

    Hibiscus sabdariffa

    The tart red one, and the ingredient whose colour is the point: those anthocyanins make a cup that is genuinely ruby, not brown. Hibiscus has been studied more than almost any other herbal infusion, and unusually the studies used the tea itself rather than an...

    Tart, cranberry-like, fruity, deeply colored

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Rosehips

    Rosa canina

    The fruit of the wild rose, containing 20 to 40 times more vitamin C than oranges in its fresh form. Here's the catch: most of that vitamin C degrades during drying and steeping. What the tea actually delivers is proanthocyanidins — water-extractable tannin antioxidants —...

    White Tea

    Camellia sinensis

    The least-handled tea there is: picked, withered, dried, and nothing else — no rolling, no pan, no fixing. What you taste is close to what the leaf tasted like on the bush. Silver Needle is buds only; Pai Mu Tan, or White Peony, is buds...

    Honey, melon, hay and fresh flowers; a pale gold cup and a very quiet one

  • Flower · Caffeine-free

    Safflower

    Carthamus tinctorius

    Orange-red petals that turn water golden — one of the world's oldest crops, and in a tea blend it is there for colour more than for taste. It looks enough like saffron that English called it bastard saffron and false saffron, and it has been...

    Light, slightly bitter and hay-like, faintly floral; colour first and flavour a distant second

Maple Peach

The maple peach is delicious. What a beautiful combination. I will most definitely order it again, and a higher quantity of it.

Always handy

I use dillweed often. This dill is fresh and has a nice aroma. I use it in marinades, salad dressings, and on fish. Good stuff.

It worked beautifully; perhaps if I add a little more honey, it would make it better… It is a wellness tea, after all!
