Understanding the Ingredients

Peppermint (Mentha x piperita) has been valued for centuries across cultures for its distinctive cooling sensation and refreshing aroma. The leaves contain natural compounds including menthol, which contributes to peppermint’s characteristic fresh, clean taste. This popular herb has a long history of traditional use and remains one of the most widely enjoyed herbal infusions worldwide.

Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza spp.) brings a naturally sweet, complex flavour to the blend, eliminating any need for added sweeteners. This ancient root has been used in traditional practices across Asia and Europe for thousands of years. Its distinctive sweet taste comes from glycyrrhizin, a compound that is naturally many times sweeter than sugar. In this blend, licorice root beautifully complements the cooling peppermint, creating a balanced and satisfying cup.

How to Prepare Your Perfect Cup

Brewing this tea is wonderfully simple. Use freshly boiled water and steep one tea bag per cup for 3 minutes to allow the flavours to fully develop. For a lighter infusion, reduce the steeping time slightly; for a more robust flavour, extend it by a minute or two. The beauty of this blend is its versatility – enjoy it hot for a warming experience, or brew it strong and pour over ice for a refreshing cold beverage.
