Pour this forest-fruit herbal tea and the cup turns a clear cherry red, led by hibiscus, rose hips and late-summer berries. It is a fruit infusion rather than a black or green tea, made for slow mornings, unhurried afternoons and a bright pot shared at the table. The berry-rich blend Hibiscus gives the infusion its deep red colour and a gently tart edge. Rose hips and apple pieces bring roundness beneath the sharper berry notes. Blackberry leaf sits quietly in the blend, adding a greener, more grounded layer. Dried cherry, raspberry, strawberry and blackberry shape the forest-fruit character. The loose blend is visually generous, with dark hibiscus petals, pale apple cubes and raisin pieces visible among the berries. How to brew it Use 4 g of loose infusion for every 200 ml of water. Brew at 95°C and let it stand for 5 to 7 minutes, then strain into your favourite cup. It drinks beautifully on its own, especially when you want something bright and fruit-led without reaching for a true tea leaf. A red cup for small rituals This is the kind of herbal fruit tea that suits a glass teapot, where the colour can deepen as it brews. Keep it for a quiet desk break, a weekend pot with cake, or an evening cup when you want flavour without the feel of black tea. Pack size and blend details This is a 1 kg pack from the Artisan Tea range, sourced from Egypt.
