Lemon Fresh Ginger ORGANIC

A herbal blend without tea leaf: herbs, flowers and roots brewed like tea, but containing no caffeine.

Ingredients: ginger pieces, lemon and lemon zest. In the cup this reads as a burning warming pungency and a clean lemon tartness.

The raw material is certified organic: grown without synthetic pesticides or mineral fertilisers, with a documented supply chain from plantation to warehouse.

There is no caffeine at all, so the drink suits children and anyone who drinks tea late in the evening.

Preparation: 15–20 g per litre, 5–10 minutes, water at 100 °C. Herbs need boiling water and a long steep: in two or three minutes the material simply does not release its flavour or its beneficial compounds. A herbal infusion is almost impossible to over-steep.

The quantities given are averages. Soft water calls for slightly more tea, hard water slightly less.

For a venue this is an item for everyone: it can be offered to a child, to a guest avoiding caffeine, and to a late-evening visitor.

Storage: in a tightly sealed opaque container, away from light, moisture and strong odours. Tea readily absorbs foreign aromas, so it should not be kept next to spices or coffee.

Packaging: sold loose, the price is given per 100 g. Alveus supplier code — 82524.

The supplier is Alveus (Germany), one of Europe’s largest tea houses. Packing and dispatch from the Verdamare warehouse.
