Blue Pea Flower & Lemongrass
Blue Pea Flower & Lemongrass
Refreshing and zesty lemongrass tea with blue butterfly pea flowers which produce a brilliant, bright blue tea which turns pink-purple with the addition of lemon juice!
One of the stars of the Amba Tea Estate, which sits on the edge of a 1000-foot precipice, overlooking the stunning Ella Gap and Ravana-Ella Waterfalls. The Estate is one of very few artisanal tea estates in the country and is part of an artisanal collective, which focusses on sustainability, transparency, small-scale farming and community well-being. They provide sustainable livelihood opportunities to rural women, support forest-friendly farming practices, and use techniques that minimise waste, energy consumption, and resource use. Five percent of gross profits is shared with workers as a bonus.
Looks great and tastes great hot or cold – a fantastic herbal tea!
