Forest Berry Bliss

A tart, ruby-red cup that tastes like a handful of winter berries, hot on a cold afternoon or poured over ice when the weather turns warm. Brew it hot for a cozy evening, chill a strong batch for a bright iced tea, or simmer it down into a berry syrup for pancakes and sparkling water.

This caffeine-free blend leans tart and fruit-forward. Hibiscus brings a deep, cranberry-like tang, rosehips and cranberries add brightness, and dried blueberries round it toward a sweeter, jammier finish. It steeps a vivid red and drinks closer to a fruit compote than a floral tea.

We blend and pack our teas in small batches in Portland so the fruit and petals stay aromatic in the tin. Blended from hibiscus, cranberries, rosehips, dried blueberries, and natural forest berries flavor. Caffeine-free. No sugar, no preservatives. Vegan.

How do I brew it?
Use one teaspoon per eight fluid ounces of water. Bring fresh water to a boil (212°F), pour it over the tea, and steep for five to ten minutes. Use fresh leaves each time you brew.

Why does the label say natural flavor if it has real berries?
The blend is built on real hibiscus, cranberries, rosehips, and dried blueberries. The natural forest berries flavor comes from fruit sources and rounds out the berry note so the cup tastes full rather than thin. Both the real fruit and the flavor are in the tin.

It tastes too tart for me. What helps?
Hibiscus and rosehips are naturally tart. Keep the steep toward five minutes, stir in a little honey, or serve it over ice with extra water. The blueberry sweetness comes forward as the cup cools.

How do I make it iced?
Brew it double strength, chill it, and pour over ice so it stays bright and berry-forward once the ice melts.
