This month’s tea is; Bianca. Bianca is a caffeine-free blend of soothing chamomile, bright orange flavors, and hibiscus flowers. This craft blend offers your body soothing, healing, stabilizing, and immune support benefits.
Chamomile flowers have a sweet, yet herbaceous aroma. Chamomile’s flavor profile is slightly fruity, like the skin of an apple with notes of a deeper honey-like sweetness. These white petaled flowers bloom in the spring and summer. Chamomile is known to have properties for healing and soothing the body.
Hibiscus Flowers are mid to late summer blooming. These vibrant red flowers have mild to no scent at all depending on the type. Hibiscus teas are commonly made from Hibiscus sabdariffa or roselle. Hibiscus tastes tart and floral at the same time. Hibiscus is known to stabilize the body by lowering blood pressure.
Oranges are a late spring and autumn blooming fruit. Orange trees blossom in April. Both the peels and the blossoms are edible and commonly used to flavor herbal teas. The flavor profile is both bitter and bitey. orange peels are known not only for their immune-boosting properties from vitamin c but they may also help to freshen breath.
The combination of chamomile flowers, hibiscus flowers, and orange flavors makes a delightfully deep, floral-herbaceous, and bitey flavor that seems to dance on your tastebuds. This tea is best brewed hot but can be served warm or iced making it wonderful for the temperate spring weather. Enjoy Bianca tea on its own or with a light sweetener like honey which will enhance the floral and fruit flavors and boost the health benefits.
