A juicy, sunshine-bright loose leaf Raspberry Lemon Verbena tea: tangy raspberry, sweet citrus-herbal lift and a clean, refreshing finish. Gorgeous hot; unbeatable as iced tea.
The flavour
Vivid and moreish from the first sip. Raspberry brings sharp, jammy tang; lemon verbena and lemongrass add soft citrus and a soothing herbality. Hibiscus gives a ruby glow and gentle tartness, rounded by natural apple sweetness. Crisp, cooling and thoroughly caffeine-free.

Brewing guide
Western (hot)
• 2–3g (heaped tsp) per 250ml
• 100°C (freshly boiled)
• 3–5 minutes (longer for extra punch)
• Infusions: 1–2 (second will be softer and sweeter)
Cold brew / Iced pitcher
• 8–10g per 1L cold, filtered water
• Chill 8–12 hours in the fridge; strain
• Serve over ice with fresh raspberry and a slice of lemon
Tip: For a quick brew, steep hot (5–6 mins), then pour over plenty of ice.
Milk? Best neat. A touch of honey or agave is lovely if you prefer sweeter.
Pair it with
Lemon drizzle cake, pavlova, berry tart, sorbet, or a summer cheese board. Also brilliant in mocktails—or use as a base for your Raspberry & Verbena cake glaze.
Ingredients – Apple pieces, lemon verbena, lemongrass, hibiscus, lemon pieces, raspberry pieces, cornflower petals.

FAQs
Is this tea caffeine-free?
Yes—it’s a herbal & fruit infusion with no tea leaf, so naturally caffeine-free.
How do I get the best iced tea?
Use the cold brew method above for ultra-smooth results. Want it stronger? Add 2–3g more leaf per litre.
Is it very sour?
It’s bright and juicy rather than puckering; apple and verbena round out hibiscus tartness. Sweeten to taste if you like.
