After I opened this tin, Prince Vladimir soon became one of my favorites. The tea smells like Coca-Cola, slightly spicy with those hits of orange and vanilla. I love to steep this tea the Russian way, with some jam mixed in. I always drink this tea hot or warm as I think it’s flavors are most pronounced this way.
Here is my Blackberry-Mandarin Orange Jam recipe that pairs perfectly with Prince Vladimir:
