Barley tea is a traditional beverage made from roasted barley grains. It has been enjoyed for centuries in many cultures around the world for its unique flavor and numerous health benefits.
Our barley tea comes from the golden wheat fields in northern China and it is freshly picked between May and June.
The rich, nutty flavor of wheat makes you feel like you are in a wheat field, relaxing and refreshing.

Some recent conversations about barley tea and the onset of beastly hot weather made me hunt some down. No luck locally, so I added a bag to an Amazon order and it arrived just before the thermometer hit 100 this weekend.
It had been years since I’d sampled barley tea, so I had no particular brand or specifications in mind. This is just as I remember it—a little sweet, wheaty, and nutty; excellent cold. (As a matter of fact, I haven’t tried it hot at all.) The tagless bags seem a little bit dinky, but two of them in a pint jar in the fridge overnight are adequate.
If the packet lasts till fall, I can envision it as a lovely hot nightcap with honey.
I would imagine that it tastes a little malty….
Dinky being the technical term!
My mom would’ve said, “Those are little squirts, aren’t they?”
