Information:

Herb and 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 lemon and strawberry flavors combined with the natural flavors and tartness of the various dried fruits create a summertime cooler or a winter time summer reminder.

Lemon mango was inspired by the refreshing character of lemon and the sweet tropical notes of mango. It is a delightful combination. Add some sugar to highlight the flavors - you will be rewared with a cup of enchantment. [This tea iced is simply wonderful - one of our favorites!]

For a summer time drink Lemon Mango 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 Lemon Mango tea to make popsicles - they taste great and contain very little sugar.

By virtue of the fact that these blends do not contain any tea and are a special blend of fruits and herbs - they are caffeine free!. An additional benefit is that these ‘teas’ contain Vitamin C. What could be better - a health drink that tastes GREAT!

Selling Tip: Give you clients an idea as follows: ‘ Add a few pieces of cinnamon for a ‘round the fireplace’  herbal drink. Add a touch of sugar and let the wilds of the outdoors roar in their fury while you contemplate life staring into the dancing flames’

Hot tea brewing method:  Place 1.5 to 2 teaspoons of Lemon Mango per cup (and add 1 teaspoon for the pot) into the teapot.  Pour boiling water into pot and let it steep for 5-7 minutes (or longer - the longer the steeping time to more intense the flavor becomes).  Pour into your cup and add sugar to taste. **do not add milk - the milk will curdle  due to the ingredients in this blend..

Cold tea brewing method:        Do Not Pour Hot Liquid directly into a Glass Pitcher

(makes 1 quart/liter)- Put 12-15 teaspoons of Lemon Mango into a heat resistant pitcher.  Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5-7 minutes or longer. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into the pitcher straining the ingredients. Add ice and top-up with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste.
