Yoga Green

Reach for this bright, lemony green cup when you want a light, fragrant tea for a slow morning or an unhurried afternoon. Yoga green is a green tea blended with lemongrass, lemon peel, goji berries, rose hips, and rose petals, and it brews into a soft, citrus-and-floral infusion with a gentle berry tartness. Drink it hot, or cool it into a delicate iced tea. It also makes a pretty base for a green-tea latte.

Lemongrass and lemon peel bring the citrus lift; rose petals and rose hips add a floral, faintly tart edge; goji berries round it out with a mild, sweet-sour fruit note. It is a gentle, aromatic cup, easy to fold into a daily ritual on the mat or at the desk.

The blend looks as good as it tastes, with pink rose petals and red goji berries scattered through the green leaf. It brews a pale golden cup with a rosy citrus scent.

Green tea leaves, lemongrass, lemon peel, goji berry, rose hip, and rose petals. No sugar, no preservatives, naturally vegan. Green tea carries caffeine, lighter than a black tea.

How do I brew it?
Use one teaspoon per eight ounces of water. Heat fresh water to about 175°F, pour it over the blend, and steep for three minutes. Use fresh leaves each time you brew.

What does it taste like?
Bright and floral: lemongrass and lemon peel up front, rose in the background, and a mild sweet-sour note from the goji berries. The green tea keeps a clean, grassy base underneath the citrus and flowers.

Does it have caffeine?
Yes, a gentle amount from the green tea, lighter than a black tea or coffee. The lemongrass, rose, and berries add aroma and flavor but no caffeine of their own.

How do I make it iced or as a latte?
For iced, brew a stronger batch, cool it, and pour over ice with a slice of lemon. For a latte, steep it strong, then top with warm or frothed milk of your choice for a soft, floral green-tea drink.
