Lets get fruitea!
Well here we are at number 3 in theuklooseleafteacompany top ten tea of the moment, well it's a fruit infusion to be precise; made from Elderberry, Hibiscus, Sultana, Blackcurrant and Blueberries, it's refreshing hot or cold and totally delicious. Brewed for 5- 8 minutes, the aroma itself has your taste buds tingling with anticipation, well that maybe a slight exaggeration, but only slight; the infusion itself is a taste explosion (again a slight exaggeration for effect) every element of the listed ingredients permeate through in the flavour (the colour is pretty too) which is a pleasant surprise, as I have yet to experience the bouquet and flavours attached to the descriptions of other well known beverages! We here at theuklooseleafteacompany have found it to be a particularly good morning wake up – and it's caffeine free. My friend stated “You would say all your teas are lush” (and yes, she did say lush) it's your business” seriously, she soon changed her mind after a tasting session. She now drinks this tea/infusion, and yes, we make her pay for it! (although a discount is applied). After all there's no such thing as a free lunch – especially when tea tasting........

June is ICED TEA MONTH
Iced tea is a sweet, refreshing, cold drink which can be enjoyed all year round. It can be made in a number of flavours. It’s often served with ice cubes and sliced fruit, making it the perfect drink when you want to cool down. This Iced Tea Month why not chill out and relax with a glass?
If you’ve never tried iced tea before, Iced Tea Month is the perfect time to do so! It can be bought ready to drink, some cafés serve it, or you could even look up a recipe and have a go at making your own. If you don’t feel confident, you can sometimes buy powdered iced tea that you simply mix with water and enjoy. Iced tea has a rich heritage, having been enjoyed for at least 100 years, so another project idea to celebrate is researching its history.
