What Are Flavored Teas?

Our Delicious Flavored Teas Use The Same Top-Quality Organic Tea That We Offer In Our Unflavored Varieties, But Are Blended With Pieces Of Real Fruit, Spices, Flowers, And 100% Natural Flavors. When Blending Our Teas, Our Goal Is To Create A Cup That Balances The Taste Of The Tea With The Flavors Of The Additional Ingredients So That Neither One Overpowers. All Of The Natural Flavors We Use Are Either Extracts Taken Directly From The Botanical Ingredient, Or Extracted Using 100% Gmo-Free Grain Alcohol As A Solvent. You Can Rest Assured That None Of The Flavors Used In Our Blends Are Synthetically Or Artificially Derived, And Do Not Use Artificial Preservatives.

Steeping Instructions

At Arbor Teas, We Believe Tea Should Be Brewed To Suit Your Personal Taste. We’Re Happy To Make Recommendations To Get You Started, But Don’T Hesitate To Experiment! When Brewing Your Tea, Your Main Considerations Are Tea Quantity, Water Temperature, And Steeping Time. We Recommend Black Teas To Be Steeped For 3 To 5 Minutes In Water Heated To A Full, Rolling Boil. For The Best Flavor, Use Fresh Water Whenever Possible, And Avoid Overboiling. Try Not To Steep Your Tea Longer Than Necessary, As You’Ll Extract Undesirable Bitterness From The Leaves. If You Want A Stronger Brew, Don’T Steep Longer, Just Use More Tea. And Remember To Re-Steep Your Tea Leaves To Get The Most Out Of Your Leaf!
