New Iced Tea!

Blackberry Currant Merlot  
T2276 - $15.50
We didn't come up with the idea of wine flavored tea yet we are big fans of the idea!  This new blend is one of our favorites.  We've added our own special touches (and a favorite ingredient) to enhance the already rich and deep berry flavors of this wildly unique blend!
Ingredients: Black Tea, Currants, Raisins, Elderberry, Hibiscus Petals, Natural Flavors. 

 Tips:  
1.  Don't over steep!  Black tea should be made with boiling water and steeped no more than 4-5 minutes.  For iced tea DOUBLE the amount you use.  Instead of one tsp. per 8oz. use two.  It's that easy!   
2.  Add a splash of something fizzy!  This tea is great when mixed with fresh fruit and sparkling wine.  Club soda works great too!

3.  Cold brew and infuse with berries!  Try adding blueberries, blackberries and pomegranate seeds in place of sugar!  Berries are loaded with antioxidants just like black tea and mixing them will give you twice the health benefits!

Tangerine Vanilla Bean Pu'erh 
T2274 - $23.50
Are you noticing a pattern? Healthy tea infused with healthy fruits and vegetables? This was our GOAL and theme for National Iced Tea and  Make Mine Iced!  
Ingredients: Black tea (Pu'erh style), Orange Peel, Vanilla Bean, Natural Tangerine Oil.



Tips:  Tealightful Original Blend! 
1.  Add fresh tangerine!  Tangerine is said to help stimulate the genes that help burn fat and Pu'erh is being studies for similar properties.  Double up on Pu'erh and tangerine for the ultimate health drink! 
2.  Drink one hour after a meal!   Puerh and tangerine are said to aid in digestion which makes this blend and excellent drink to consume after every meal!

3.  Like Creamsicles? Try adding a splash of cream soda or vanilla flavored creamer to this blend.  Serve cold with ice.  It's like drinking a creamsicle!  

Organic Lemonade Tea Punch - New Recipe! 
T2259 - $20.50
Ingredients: Organic black tea, Organic Rooibos, Organic Green Tea, Organic Lemon and Orange Peel, Organic Apple, Organic Lemon grass, Hibiscus Blossoms and Organic Natural Lemon Flavor.




 Tips:  Tealightful Original Blend! 
1.  Make an Arnold Palmer!  We love this blend mixed half and half with Lemonade!  The best part is that this recipe will contain half of the sugar of a bottled version of half and half! 
2.  Use as a marinade:  Organic Lemonade Tea Punch is great for marinating fish or chicken.  Use in place of the the liquid (not oil) for any marinade recipe!  The tannins in the teas will naturally tenderize meat or seafood!

3.    Add fresh mint and lime!  Experiment with garnishes and sliced fruits and herbs.  They are full of flavor and will help you replace simple sugar.



Cucumber Watermelon Oolong  Great Detox Blend! 
This exciting new blend was created to be consumed COLD!  Have you ever had fresh cucumber water?  Well this is even better! 
Ingredients:  Ti Kwan Yin Oolong, Freeze Dried Cucumber,  Papaya, Plum, Safflower, Natural Flavor. 
Tips:  
Tealightful Original Blend! 
1.  Multiple infusions!  Don't throw away your tea filter after the first infusion, add more water and steep up to four times! 
2.  Add Fruit and Herbs! 
Add fresh watermelon, cucumber and mint.  Water rich fruits and vegetables are great for eliminating bloating.  Infusing Oolong with water rich fruits and vegetables will supercharge your metabolism! 
3. Cold Brew! 
Use our cold brew method and make this in your refrigerator over night!  

And the best Gizmo we have:
