Description:   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 berry flavours combined with the tartness of the various berries create a summertime cooler or a wintertime summer reminder.

This tea has a flavor that is a melody of berries. The berries are exotic.

Think  of  a  Saturday  market  where  the  fresh  smells  of  various  fruits  tantalizingly blend in the air.

For a summertime drink berrylicious iced is hard to beat. It is refreshing and thirst quenching and not overly sweet. For formal times garnish the glass with a strawberry and a sprig of mint  –  for non-formal times pour it into your glass and enjoy it gulp after gulp! If you have small children use the Berrylicious tea to make popsicles – they taste great and contain very little sugar.

Not only that but if you pour into your cup unfiltered you can also chew on these after you have gulped your tea!

By virtue of the fact that these blends do not contain any tea and are a special blend of fruits  – they are caffeine free!

An additional benefit is that these ‘teas’ contain Vitamin C and antioxidants. What could be better – a healthy drink that tastes GREAT!

Hot tea brewing method:  Bring fresh cold water to a rolling boil. Place 2 teaspoons of Berrylicious for each 200-260ml of fluid volume in the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot.

Cover and let steep for 5 -10 minutes according to taste (the longer the  steeping time, the better the flavor as more fruit flavor is extracted). Garnish and sweeten to taste

Iced tea brewing method ( Pitcher)   (to make 1 litre): Place 12 slightly heaping teaspoons of Berrylicious blend into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Using fresh cold water, boil and pour 1¼ cups/315ml over the Berrylicious blend.

Steep for 5 -10 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your  serving pitcher straining the tea. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste.

A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced Berrylicious tea is to increase the strength of hot brew since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water.

Iced tea brewing method ( Individual Serving) :  Place 2 slightly heaping teaspoons of Berrylicious blend into a teapot for each serving required. Using fresh cold water, boil and pour 170-200ml per serving over the Berrylicious blend.

Cover and let steep for 5 -10 minutes. Add hot tea to a 12oz/375ml acrylic glass filled with ice, straining the tea. Not all of the tea will fit, allowing for approximately an additional ½ serving.

Garnish and sweeten to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed berrylicious tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted.
