“TTB tea! The coconut adds a desserty, almost roasted rice sort of flavor. The slightly savory green tea goes well with the additions, sort of like in a genmaicha. I didn’t taste much fruit or...” Read full tasting note

Description

A celebration dedicated to cake and treats wouldn’t be complete without one of the most classic, beloved desserts EVER: shortcake! And not just any shortcake: a berry creamy sweet shortcake, pardon the pun. This fruity green tea blend chock full of creamy coconut, elderberries, currants, and maple steeps a beautiful pink and would make a fantastic latte with some non-dairy milk (the presence of hibiscus may make dairy milk curdle), just imagine that sweet pink foam. Cake in a mug? YES, PLEASE!

Certified organic ingredients: Green Tea, Elderberries, Raisins, Currants, Hibiscus, Canadian Maple, Coconut, Toasted Coconut

Handcrafted in Toronto, Canada.

Steeping instructions: 2 tea spoons at 200F for 5-6 mins
