When someone asks if you'd like some tea, what's the first thing that pops into your mind? If you're a Southerner like me, it's probably sweet tea, right? Growing up, I used to think tea was just one thing—especially when it came to sweet tea, which, let's be honest, is practically a staple down here. But did you know there are actually six different types of tea? That’s right—green, black, white, oolong, Pu-erh, and yellow tea all have their own unique flavors and characteristics. And if you're counting herbal teas, that makes it seven! 

This tea is great hot or iced, but personally, I believe this tea shines best as iced. After brewing and cooling the tea to room temperature, it blends well with any drink you could imagine! We make a few drinks with it, notably our Sage Lavender Lemonade, which adds lavender syrup and is topped off with lemonade. It could even be added to mocktail recipes or an afternoon fruit tea recipe to make any afternoon a special occasion! If you choose to have this tea hot, the tea pairs wonderfully with honey and a lemon wedge. The sweetness from the honey and the brightness from the lemon wedge would brighten up anyone’s day!
