From California Tea House

Lemon Meringue Pie Rooibos is another farmer’s market favorite. We usually run out before noon! Lemon Meringue Pie loose leaf Rooibos is a comfort blend of fine rooibos tea, a handful of lemongrass, lemon preserves and vanilla bean bits. This tea is excellent hot or cold. Throw some mint leaves in the mix if you’re going to have it on ice. Ani adds a small amount of Rose Petal Preserves to hers. Yum!

Rooibos is naturally decaffeinated tea. Use 1 or 2 heaping tablespoons of Lemon Meringue Pie to each cup of filtered water at a full boil and steep for 5 to 7 minutes.

I have been spoiled by the divinity of American Tea Room’s Lemoncello, which is also a rooibos based lemon tea. However, the Lemoncello is so mild that it doesn’t do well diluted with ice. In searching for a tea to ice this summer, I discovered California Tea Room’s Lemon Meringue Pie. Though the dry tea is very astringent, smelling almost as if splashed with rubbing alcohol, the brewed liquid smells fabulous! The liquid tastes and smells unapologetically zingy, zesty, but not too acidic. It’s a strong lemon tea, yet the rooibos keeps it from being grassy. I put it over ice, and it remained strong and refreshing. With sugar added, it developed a whole new character. A delicious find! As long as I don’t inhale while the tea is dry, this is a wonderfully full, versatile cup of lemon tea.
