THE STORY OF ORGANIC RASPBERRY LEMON VERBENA
In this busy world, finding a few moments to relax can be challenging. To help make the most of your time we've developed this organic relaxation tea packed with a selection of ingredients chosen for their natural ability to ease the mind, body, and spirit.
We start with pieces of dried apple, selected for their antioxidant count and soothing flavor. To this we've added a trio of relaxing lemon-scented organics: Lemon Verbena, believed to possess anti-inflammatory properties. Lemongrass leaves, an aromatic herb said to ease anxiety. And dried lemon pieces, a source of Vitamin C, which is thought to help manage the stress hormone cortisol.
In addition to the lemony side of things, this fabulous tea also incorporates naturally dried raspberries. Soft, full fruit flavor that compliments the bright tartness and delicate sweetness of the tea. Raspberries contain antioxidants and flavonoids which are thought to have a positive impact on stress levels and mood. Topping things off are hibiscus and rose petals, known for their soothing scent and anti-inflammatory properties. Craft blended with natural flavors, this caffein-free functional tea is a delicious balance of sweet raspberry and sour lemon. A relaxing fusion of flavors to sip on in the evening to ease yourself to sleep or iced on a hot summer day to wind down on the weekend. Now, all you need to do is put the kettle on.
BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
BREWING INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOT TEA: Infuse one slightly heaping teaspoon for each 8 ounce cup with water brought to a boil for 3-7 minutes.
Infuse 6 slightly heaping teaspoons of tea with 1 1/4 cups of boiling water for 7 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water, and add the infused tea, straining the leaves, to the pitcher. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Drink plain, or consider adding lemon and sweetening to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water.
Infuse 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea with 6 ounces of boiling water for 7 minutes. Add the tea to a 12 ounce glass, filled with ice, straining the leaves. Add hot tea to a 12oz/375ml acrylic glass filled with ice, straining the tea or removing the bags. Consider adding lemon and sweetening to taste.
NUMBER OF CUPS: 15-20 cups from each 50 grams of tea, with a single use of the leaves. Loose leaf tea is traditionally infused 3 times, with a different flavor profile following each infusion. Accordingly, each 50 gram bag can make up to 60 cups of tea.
