Purple Cranberry Green Tea – Lime & Blue Pea Flower, Loose Leaf | The Infused Kettle

A loose leaf green tea blended with blue pea flower, lemon slices, tulsi and ginger. The blue pea gives the brew a violet-blue colour that turns pink-purple the moment lemon hits it, and the taste stays light with a tart citrus edge and a warm ginger finish. A good pick if you want a tea that looks striking in a glass pot.

FAQs

Why does the tea change colour?

Blue pea flower pigment reacts to acidity. Adding lemon juice shifts the blue towards purple and pink.

Does it taste of cranberry?

The blend is named for its berry-purple colour. The flavour comes from lemon, tulsi and ginger over green tea.

Can I brew it in a glass teapot?

That is the best way to see the colour. Any infuser works for taste.
