Ah, green tea. Green tea is one of those drinks that everyone wants to enjoy because of it’s health benefits and antioxidants, but often people find themselves hating the taste. If this is you, then please do not despair! We’ve been there too but we’ve discovered that the cause of this could be down to two common problems:

1.  You aren’t brewing it correctly and therefore burning the leaves, making it bitter. Find out how to make green tea! 
2. You haven’t tried the right green tea yet! Green tea doesn’t have to be plain and boring, green tea blends are some of the tastiest teas out there!

‘This tea is the one. Not only is it really, really pretty but it tastes so yummy too. I'd buy it for the taste alone if I'm being honest so the fact it's eye-catching is a super bonus. I'd highly recommend it to anyone…’

 ‘I'm personally not a huge fan of green tea but this is a beauty. Its a subtle mix of green tea, fruit and floral notes. Reminds me of childhood visits to the Chinese Garden of Friendship, Sydney.’

Turkish Apple tea holds a special place in our hearts, reminding us of chaotic days exploring markets & lazy afternoons sipping tea on the road sides of Ankara. Our tribute to Turkish apple tea uses an unusual but wonderfully addictive combination of green tea, apple pieces, cinnamon & cloves.

Ingredients: Chinese green tea, apple pieces, cinnamon, cloves, sage, red cornflowers.

Ben:
'I love Turkish tea and the Dogadan apple tea you get in the shops and hotels; so I was completely intrigued by a loose leaf variation on this. The quality & flavour of this variety is wonderful, not the overly processed, mass produced version I know & love. But a flavoursome, lighter more delicate version & I may have to change my allegiance to this one.'
