Ingredients
Luxury black tea, Natural dried Papaya, Freeze dried apricot, Blackberry + Lime leaves, Calendula + Sunflower petals, Natural flavours
|
Infusion
Bright and coppery
|
Cup Characteristics
Infusion immediately produces the bright, sweet aromas of fresh apricots. The natural sweetness of the fruit flavouring makes this one of our best iced teas.
|
Hot Tea Brewing Method
Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of tea for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). Even though milk and a dash of sugar help enhance the flavour character on this tea, it is perfectly acceptable to consume this tea 'straight-up'
|
Iced Tea Brewing Method
(to make 1 litre/quart): Place 6 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water]. Please note that this tea may tend to go cloudy or 'milky' when poured over ice; a perfectly normal characteristic of some high quality black teas and nothing to worry about!

Hot Tea Brewing Method
As with all top quality teas, scoop 2-4 teaspoons of tea into the teapot. Pour in boiling water that has been freshly drawn (previously boiled water has lost most if its oxygen and therefore tends to be flat tasting), steep for 2-4 minutes (to taste), stir (virtually all the leaves will sink), pour into your cup, add milk, (do not use cream) and sugar to taste. When you are making a pot of tea - using loose tea of course - you will see the tea leaves uncurl and expand dramatically. This uncurling and expansion is called 'the agony of the leaf'.
