Fresh, aromatic & sweet. The invigorating temperament of ginger pieces is rounded off by the smooth sweetness of blackberry leaves. The flavour of crisp apples & the delicately tangy green tea offers a perfect tea indulgence.
Making Iced Tea

September 11, 2018With a heatwave on the cards, staying hydrated is essential for staying healthy and refreshed. The recommended amount of water to drink in a day is 8 glasses or 72 ounces. The good news is that tea does count towards your daily fluid intake, and can add a variety of flavours to your day. Being healthy can be enjoyable.
It is a common misconception that caffeinated teas are dehydrating and can make you feel thirstier. This is not true and in fact a study conducted by the Tea Advisory Panel showed that drinking 4-6 cups of tea a day is just as hydrating to your body as drinking 4-6 cups of water. If you would like to find out more about this study click here.
In many warmer countries hot tea is consumed to aid the body in cooling itself however if you are craving something cold and thirst quenching but still want to enjoy your favourite tea why not check out our guide to brewing your own iced tea at home?
