Smooth green tea blended with blackcurrants & vanilla beans to create a slightly tart, pleasantly sweet, very creamy cuppa that I absolutely love & I’m certain you will too!

Countdown to Catching Up, Part 2 – Tea 10 (Counting Down from 10 to 1!)

Wowza! This tea turned out so much better than I even anticipated. Don’t get me wrong, I had high expectations (I usually do!), but this is SO GOOD! The blackcurrant flavor is clear & stands out – bright, tart & sweet with a berry finish that provides a really nice contrast to the sweet & creamy vanilla custard notes. So amazingly good!

This blend starts with Chinese Sencha which is known for its mild, earthy flavor. Then, I added a couple of organic vanilla beans & some freeze-dried blackcurrants as well as a touch of essence to enhance these flavors & create a custard-y note. The result is a fantastic cup that is sweet, creamy & tangy. It’s the kind of cuppa you want to curl up to along with a warm blanket & a good book. It’s organic, vegan, gluten-free, allergen-friendly & all-natural!

organic ingredients: green tea, blackcurrants, vanilla beans, calendula petals & natural flavors

to brew: shake pouch well. Use 3g of tea to 12oz, of very hot water (175°F) & steep for 2 minutes. Strain & allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Enjoy!

serving suggestion: Because I tend to prefer my “creamy” teas (like a custard tea) served hot, I like this one that way too. But it also makes a really nice iced tea. It’s tasty without any additions, but it makes a stunning latte. A bit of sugar will enhance the custard-y notes.
