As the weather begins to change and we move into April we are looking forward to exploring the refreshing flavours of our lighter teas as well as the cold brews and Iced teas we have! So for April we've decided White Tea Elderflower is our tea of the month.
This white tea has very delicate flavour with floral, herbaceous, malty notes. The base of White peony tea is an amazing starting point, blending this with elderflower adds that delicate floral flavour we have all grown to love, plus naturally decorating the tea with pretty marigold blossoms makes it a stunning tea to look at as well as enjoy! Great as an iced tea or with lemonade, also a perfect addition to that G&T you are dreaming of!
Zoë has tried this tea two ways for us and we're sharing the recipes below, one for the Iced version and one for something a little stronger...
