Iced Pink Chai

5 min

A rosy, caffeine-free twist on the classic chai with all its familiar flavors of peppercorns, cardamom, and cinnamon, Iced Pink Chai is a delicious and gorgeous morning beverage. The natural pink hue comes from roses, pink peppercorns, and a sprinkle of beet powder garnish. Simply steep Pink Chai in a cup of milk, sweeten to taste, and refrigerate overnight for a refreshing chai on the go. This beverage is easily customizable with honey, agave, brown sugar, cow's milk, oat milk, coconut milk, or even add a shot of espresso for an iced dirty chai experience.

Strawberry Fields Iced Tea

10 min

As June unfurls its warm embrace, strawberries reach their peak! To capture the sunshine in a glass, we have artfully paired these ripe berries with our spicy yet refreshing tea, Firefly Garden. This herbal infusion boasts a delightful kick from green peppercorns, perfectly balanced by the soothing notes of lemongrass and chrysanthemum flowers. Once chilled, this brew becomes the quintessential essence of summer, ready to be enjoyed at any time of day.  

Mango Rooibos Iced Tea

Rooibos is an herbal tea from South Africa. It has delicate hints of caramel and woody flavors. Once steeped, it turns a gorgeous rusty-red color. We added aromatic Jamaican Allspice as the secret ingredient in this brew, having notes of nutmeg, cloves and black pepper. For a touch of warmth we added Cassia Chip Cinnamon and sweet mango puree to brighten your glass. Delicious, thirst quenching, and good for you; sipping this tea is a great way to keep cool on a hot summer day!

Roselle-Rooibos Drink

Afro-Vegan by Bryant Terry is a staff favorite vegan cookbook that we always refer back to. And bonus? Every recipe has a song or book choice to go with it! Hibiscus tea is delicious, and we love finding new ways to use it.From Bryant Terry author of Afro-Vegan: "This drink is tart, sweet, and floral and has become one of my favorite summertime beverages. In this recipe, I call for fresh pineapple to give the drink texture and vibrant tropical flavor, but when my editor, Melissa Moore, brought me a bag of fresh peaches from the farm of Mas Masumoto, I peeled, sliced, and used them in place of the pineapple. It was off the chain! I think any other stone fruit, such as nectarines or cherries, would also work well and I encourage you to experiment with adding them. For a late fall or winter spin, serve this drink warm, omitting the fresh fruit and boiling the tea and hibiscus with 1/4 teaspoon whole Cloves in a nod to how roselle is prepared in Trinidad and Tobago."
