INFORMATION:Herb and fruit tea in some circles is considered a new type of tea. We formulated this blend to accommodate the tastes of people who wanted to experience a refreshing healthy new style drink without caffeine that looks like blood. What we got was a terrific "tea" that is unbelievably delicious and enjoyed Hot or Cold and looks like blood!
If you have small children use the Blood Tea Whole Fruit tea to make Popsicles - they taste great and contain very little sugar and look like blood.
By virtue of the fact that these blends do not contain any tea and are a special blend of fruits and herbs - they are caffeine free!
An additional benefit is that these 'teas' contain Vitamin C.
What could be better - a healthy drink that tastes GREAT and looks like blood!
HOT BREWING METHOD: Place 1.5 to 2 teaspoons of Blood Tea per cup (and add 1 teaspoon for the pot) into the teapot. Pour boiling water into pot and let it steep for 6 minutes (or longer - the longer the steeping time the more intense the flavor becomes). Pour into your cup and add sugar to taste.
**do not add milk - the milk will curdle due to the ingredients in this blend. [unless you want that for Halloween.]
ICED TEA BREWING METHOD(Pitcher): Do Not Pour Hot Liquid directly into a Glass Pitcher (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 12-15 teaspoons of Blood Tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 6 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water].
