Peachy's Pantry: Alpine Berry Herbal Tea by Two Leaves and a Bud Highly Recommended by Whom You Know

Alpine Berry Herbal Tea by Two Leaves and a Bud is a wonderfully refreshing beverage!  As soon as you pour boiling water over the tea bag it instantly turns ruby red. Hibiscus, apple peel, blackberry leaves, orange peel, and other berry flavors create a delightful aroma and delicious flavor that you will look forward to having again and again!  And since this herbal tea has no caffeine, you can enjoy it at any time of the day without worrying whether or not you will be able to fall asleep at night.  This tea will warm you up in the winter, but it also tastes great iced for those hot summer days.  This is my new favorite drink!  In fact, I am going to go brew a cup right now!

Two Leaves and a Bud states "tea is like wine" and like wine, tea has a top note, middle note and finish.  These details can be found in the "flavor profile" presented on one side of the box.  Clearly this company takes their tea very seriously!  I brewed this tea hot, but am very much looking forward to having it iced on a hot summer day.  It is refreshing and fruity hot and I can only imagine how invigorating it will be when iced!  Based in Colorado, this tea is never combined with less expensive "filler teas" and only the finest teas are used as insured by experienced tasters and growers!  This Alpine Berry tea is sure to please any tea lover!

Two Leaves Alpine Berry Tea has to be one of my new favorite teas to drink!  I'm the type of person that craves sweets while I'm watching prime time TV and have been looking for alternatives to that.  Two Leaves Alpine Berry Tea has helped with that.  The aroma of berries is subtle and not overwhelming at all.  The taste isn't overwhelming either.  It has a wonderful taste of berries with some tang and citrus all in one.  I also love that it's caffeine free so I don't have to worry about being up late with a caffeine buzz late at night.  This is a tea that I will keep in stock for those late night cravings of sweets.

There are very few times when I actually drink tea for pure pleasure.  Usually, it's because I have a cold, I AM cold, or I'm getting ready for a singing gig!  However, thanks to Two Leaves and a Bud Tea Company's Alpine Berry tea, that's about to change!  With ingredients including hibiscus, apple peel, rose hips, blackberry leaves, orange peel, and natural berry flavors, this tea is simply bursting with delicious fruity flavor.  I first tasted it on a cold, dreary, Manhattan afternoon, and the warmth and the taste immediately boosted my spirits!  The box for the tea contains all kinds of interesting information, such as brewing tips, notes to look for, caffeine content (this tea is caffeine-free!), and origin.  In the "character" description on the box, it was noted that the Alpine Berry tea is also great to have iced in the summer...but I'm going to be bold and try it iced as soon as we get a warm day in spring!  Hot or iced, this is one delectable tea...and I can't wait to have another mug of it!
 
The Alpine Berry tea by Two Leaves is by far my favorite tasting tea! It's made from Hibiscus blackberry leaves and orange peel. The flavor, as you can imagine, is fruity and slightly tangy. It's a delight to drink this tea. I usually have this before I got to sleep or in the middle of the day to reward my palate. This is also the perfect refreshing tea to have ice cold. Can't wait to make it!!


Two Leaves Alpine Berry is an absolutely delicious tea. It has a nice berry taste to it. I love it because it has a nice pick me up and go. I love fruity teas. This tea has the best aroma. It fills the room up with berry delicious aroma! No pun intended. hehe
