A distinctively smoky brew reminiscent of a smooth green tea, this is the perfect cup for a sustained energy boost when you need to keep the midday doldrums at bay. A central part of Latin American tea culture, for centuries mate leaves have been consumed for their ability to rejuvenate and provide focus.
Committed to quality, Teapigs exclusively uses whole leaf teas, herbs, and flowers in their blends. Knowing the confines of a traditional paper bag wouldn't do their meticulously sourced product justice, the tea temple was born—a roomy, biodegradable mesh bag, which offers all the space whole leaves need to infuse property. Pyramid tea bags might not be new, but it's ultimately the tea inside that counts. We love Teapigs for being well balanced, never bitter, and full of flavor. Far from ordinary, this just might be the perfect cuppa!
Whole flowers take longer to brew, but the little wait is definitely worth it. Infuse in boiling water. Brew for 3+ minutes, depending on how you like it.
Try it Iced! Cover one tea temple with just enough boiling water to fully submerge and infuse for 3 minutes. Remove temple and top-up glass with iced water.
