Loose Leaf Tea Company Orange Blast Black Tea
$7.49
If you like your black tea bold and bursting with fruit, Loose Leaf Tea Company's Orange Blast Black Tea pours an intense, juicy orange cup on a brisk black tea base. Formerly sold as Tangy Tangerine, this loose-leaf black tea combines real orange pieces with blackberry leaves and bright safflower petals. It brews a lively citrus cup that works just as well steaming hot as it does poured over ice.
Why You'll Love This Loose Leaf Blend
- Big, juicy orange flavor: Real orange pieces and natural flavors give every cup an intense citrus character.
- Robust black tea backbone: Full-bodied black tea holds its own against the fruit, so the cup tastes rich rather than thin.
- Hot or iced: Brew it hot on a cool morning, or chill it for a bright, fruity iced tea in warm weather.
- Loose-leaf format: Whole leaves and fruit pieces have room to open up in your infuser or teapot.
- Pick your size: The 1 oz. pouch is an easy way to try it. The 3 oz., 8 oz. and 16 oz. sizes keep a daily habit stocked.
- A cheerful gift: The colorful orange and safflower blend makes a welcome present for citrus lovers.
