Cherry Vanilla Tea – Rick’s Tea Face 11-17-2024

Our Cherry Vanilla Tea has been a sleeper hit since we brought it in about a year ago. When we sample it in our store, as we’ve been doing this week, we pick up many more fans. My reasons for sipping it for this week’s Tea Face is more seasonal and holiday related, but there are a couple more reasons. Also, check out the dark, crimson color. You know that I love the colors of teas, especially burgundy red herbal teas.

For the herbal qualities, Cherry Vanilla has elderberries and hibiscus as it’s base. They provide a full, fruity flavor, onto which our blender adds cherry, vanilla and other flavors, making it an extremely delicious tea. Caffeine-free so you can drink it anytime. In these colder, damper months, the elderberries help with your respiratory system, along with a nice berry flavor. I drink an elderberry -base cup of tea every day in addition to a black tea. The hibiscus also has many healthy benefits, if you look them up online. You might be surprised. So, as a healthy tea, it’s very good. Now, let’s talk about taste since that’s what I’m ultimately about when I drink my teas.

Cherries have been used for thousands of years all around the world as a flavoring in tea, for baking, and entrees. Each country has it’s own specialties, like England and France for desserts, especially during the holidays. The same with vanilla, which is used in baking, beverages and other uses around the holidays. Over here across the pond, cherries and vanilla are used for many Christmas and Hanukkah dishes. My English mother and Grandmother baked with them in a variety of Christmas desserts. I wish I had the recipes, but many are lost. At least I have this tea which has both flavors which brings me a smile and memories of holidays growing up.

So, if you love cherries, you must try it. Love vanilla, give it a chance. Love fruity teas? Definitely on your list to check out. Want a very healthy tea which tastes good too? Stop by.
