Apple
Apples have been grown across Europe and Central Asia for thousands of years, and dried apple pieces are the backbone of countless fruit tea blends. They brew a naturally sweet, mellow cup with a gentle orchard aroma and give the infusion a fuller body. Apple pairs with almost anything: cinnamon, ginger, berries, citrus, hibiscus, rooibos and black tea. Because the pieces hold their flavor well, apple blends are lovely both piping hot in winter and poured over ice in summer.
Blackberry leaves come from the same bramble bush that gives us blackberries, a plant that grows wild throughout Europe and North America. Dried and cut, they brew a mild, smooth, slightly earthy cup with a light, tea-like dryness and none of the fruit's sweetness. In Germany and Central Europe they are a classic base for herbal and fruit blends, pairing well with raspberry leaves, strawberry leaves, apple, rosehip and mint. Blackberry leaves are naturally caffeine-free.
Hibiscus tea is made from the deep red calyces of the roselle flower, a tropical plant grown in West Africa, Egypt, Mexico and Southeast Asia. It brews a bold, tart, cranberry-like cup with a fruity tang and a stunning ruby-red color. Hibiscus is the backbone of many fruit and herbal blends, pairing beautifully with rosehip, orange, berries, ginger and cinnamon, and it adds zing to rooibos and black tea. In Mexico, chilled hibiscus tea known as agua de jamaica is a summer favorite.
Linden, also known as lime blossom or basswood, comes from the fragrant pale yellow flowers and leafy bracts of linden trees found across Europe and North America. It brews a soft, mellow cup with a sweet, honey-like floral aroma and a smooth, gentle finish. Linden blends nicely with chamomile, lemon balm, mint, rooibos and light fruit blends. In France and Central Europe it is a beloved after-dinner tea, often enjoyed simply on its own with a little honey.
Lemon verbena is a leafy shrub native to South America, brought to Europe by Spanish explorers and now grown widely around the Mediterranean. Its slender leaves have an intense, bright lemon aroma that is sweeter and more floral than lemon peel. Verbena is wonderful on its own, and it pairs well with green tea, white tea, mint, lemongrass and fruit blends. In France it is a classic after-dinner herbal tea called verveine, and it makes a refreshing iced tea too.

Maybe my favorite tea from Tealyra. This one is fantastic at any time of day: refreshing and light enough for day time, relaxing and soothing enough for evening. Full of unique and interesting flavors that are tied together with a minty note. Smells great, tastes great, feels great!

This tea is absolutely gorgeous... literally the array of herbs look so pretty it makes me smile and get a little giddy every time I open the bag. Is it possible to have a crush on a tea? If so, this is it!
