Teapigs Jasmine Pearl Tea

Green Tea with Jasmine

A pack of 15 biodegradable tea temples with green tea infused with jasmine from teapigs.  I personally love tea,  and this one is definitely one of my very favourites.  It is a high quality green tea from the Fujian province which is infused with fresh jasmine flowers.  The tea is very light and refreshing,  the jasmine aroma taste takes away the grassy flavour of the green tea so it is very balanced and full of delicate flavour.  They make this tea by carefully hand rolling the leaves into pearl size drops,  then the tea is engulfed in fresh jasmine flowers which lets the jasmine aroma infuse into the tea.  Teapigs tea is high quality and they use whole leaf rather than fragments of tea,  it also tastes fresh which you do not get with many tea bag type teas.

Each pack of 15 biodegradable tea bags is best made without anything other than hot water,  steep for 3 minutes and sip away.   I ordered mine on line from teapigs,  they do have a few shops that sell direct, see their website.  Their packaging is environment friendly and the inks they use are vegetable based.

Raspberry Leaf Tea

Veggie Wellbeing Raspberry Leaf Tea

From Heath & Heather a lovely delicate tea made with raspberry leaves and other natural ingredients.  Raspberry leaf is used as a natural remedy but as a drink it is refreshing, slightly sweet and light.  I like it in the afternoon when I take 5 minutes out.  Just steep in hot water for a few minutes.

Each box of 20 tea bags is suitable for vegans as far as I can tell.  Per 100ml infusion is 4kcal.  Sold in health food shops.  I got mine from Holland and Barrett in the Penny sale.

Twinings Nettle & Peppermint Cleanse Tea

Vegan Nettle & Peppermint Tea

An infusion of peppermint and nettle leaves tea bags from Twinings.  This is a gentle tea,  the flavour is quite soft, the mint is the more dominant flavour.  I liked it,  it is quite refreshing.  Nettle and Peppermint has some natural qualities of helping to cleanse and calm your stomach.  These are ideal if you feel a bit out of balance,  if you have an upset tummy or just to refresh you.

Each 40gram box of 20 bags is vegan as it only contains peppermint and nettle.  All natural ingredients.   To make you just add boiling water and allow to steep for 2 mins.

I also like the Tea Pigs Peppermint Tea,  it feels less processed and has larger leaves and seems to be a better quality.

Vegan Spiced Red Tea

A warming fruity and lightly spiced tea from Tea Pigs.  This smells divine,  a perfect drink to warm you up and give you a lift when you are feeling cold and blue.   It is made using a blend of Orange Peel, Cinnamon, Cloves, orange blossom, ginko, safflower, ginseng root and  Rooibos Tea.   I would recommend this tea to anyone.   On the pack they suggest having a nip of brandy in the tea ( I must give that a go).

Each 37.5 gram pack contains 15 biodegradable tea temples.  Suitable for Vegans,  Caffeine free.  Sold in specialist shops and on line.

I also like their Peppermint Tea which I reviewed earlier.

Vegan Peppermint Tea Bags

A vegan tummy tonic peppermint tea from Tea Pigs.  I really love Tea Pigs tea’s  this peppermint one is a regular in my cupboard.  The tea is very good quality and tastes very fresh and natural,  the flavour is clearly peppermint,  you can see the large broken leaves in the biodegradable bags not just dust.  Peppermint is well known for its remedy for tummy upsets.  In fact I have tried this a few times as a remedy for an upset stomach and this has really helped.  This tea is also perfect for after a meal or just for a refreshing drink.

Each 30gram box contains 15 biodegradable tea temples,  it is caffeine free.  The ingredients are just Peppermint Leaves,  so is suitable for Vegans and all veggies.   The packaging can be recycled.   To make you just add hot water, let it steep for a few minutes and enjoy.

I think these make an ideal gift.
