A fruit tea that does not taste like a boiled sweet. The strawberry is carried on a soft black tea base chosen because it will not turn tannic and fight the fruit, so the cup stays smooth from first sip to last. It is the one in this range that children and non-tea-drinkers reach for, and it makes an outstanding iced tea.
Tasting notes
Ripe strawberry over a smooth, low-astringency black tea, fruity and rounded with no bitter edge.
How to brew?
Steep one bag in 200 ml of freshly boiled water for three minutes. For iced tea, brew two bags in 250 ml, cool, and serve over ice.
What is inside?
Black tea with natural strawberry flavouring. [Confirm the flavouring declaration against pack artwork before repeating any '100% natural' claim.]
The tea bag. Staple-free, naturally crimped filter paper, each bag sealed in its own sachet.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Is it sweet? It is fruity rather than sweet — there is no added sugar. Sweeten to taste if you prefer.
Does it work as iced tea? It is the best iced tea in the range. Brew double strength, chill, and serve over ice with fresh strawberry.
