Description
Herb and fruit tea in some circles is considered a new type of tea. We formulated this blend to accommodate tastes of people who wanted to experience a refreshing healthy new style drink without caffeine. What we got was a terrific 'tea' that is unbelievably delicious and enjoyed Hot or Cold! This tea has a very exotic flavor profile. The delicious blend of lascivious lemon flavor and fruit flavors combined with the natural flavors and tartness of the various dried fruits creates a summertime cooler or a wintertime summer reminder.
This tea has a flavor which by some has been described as sultry and lascivious - a flavor synonymous with the era of 'The Great Gatsby'. This tea has simply delicious lemon notes - tending sweet but piquant and terrifically refreshing. You can imagine this drink being served on the manicured lawns of the mansions of Gatsby era homes - dancing and frivolity abound. Intrigue would follow and the flavor of this blend complements the mystery.
For a summer time drink Summer Breeze iced is a natural! It is refreshing and thirst quenching and not overly sweet. For formal times garnish the glass with a slice of lemon and a sprig of mint - for non-formal times pour it into your glass and enjoy it gulp after gulp!
Another great idea for this drink is to use it as a base to make popsicle for your children. Simply put 3 teaspoons in a heat resistant serving pitcher, pour in 1 quart of boiling water, steep for 10 minutes or more, add 4 teaspoons of sugar, let cool for a few minutes, strain as you pour into popsicle molds - wow! A healthy treat for a kid!
By virtue of the fact that these blends do not contain any tea and are a special blend of fruits and herbs - they are caffeine free! An additional benefit is that these 'teas' contain Vitamin C. What could be better - a healthy drink that tastes GREAT!
