Some teas are built for the kettle and the mug; this one is built for the jug, the ice and the porch chair. A clean Chinese green tea base sits underneath — bright, slightly grassy — and on top, dried watermelon and lime peel turn the cup into something closer to fruit water than to a hot tea. It works hot for fifteen minutes a year; the rest of the year, it lives in the fridge. The watermelon comes through gently, the way watermelon comes through anything — a soft, naturally sweet hint rather than a candied burst. Lime peel adds the bright top note that keeps the cup from going slack. Lower in caffeine than a black tea, drinks like a flavoured water without the syrup. 🌿Chinese Green Base Pan-fired leaf, bright and clean — iced-friendly 🍉Real Watermelon Dried fruit pieces, soft natural sweetness ❄️Iced or Cold-Brew Hot is fine; iced is where it belongs ✨ The Sampson PromiseWe only put ingredients in our products that we would use on our own family. Every ingredient has a purpose. If it doesn’t need to be there, it isn’t. Type Green Tea (flavoured) Caffeine Low–Medium Best Time Iced, summer Format Loose Leaf Steep Time 2–3 min hot, overnight cold Servings ~25 cups (50g) Tasting Notes 🍋 Lime-Melon Top Aroma The aroma walks in fresh and faintly tropical — lime peel sits brightest on top, watermelon’s soft sweetness sits behind it. Reads more cocktail than tea. 🌿 Bright Light Body Body The green tea base brews bright and clean, the body just structured enough to carry the fruit. Cold, the watermelon sweetness comes forward; hot, the green leaf does. ✨ Clean Sweet Finish Aftertaste Closes naturally sweet from the dried fruit, no candy edge. Refreshing rather than rich — the cup leaves the mouth feeling rinsed rather than coated. How to Brew 01 For Hot Tea 1 heaped tsp per 8oz cup, ~80°C water, 2–3 minutes. Don’t over-steep — green tea past four minutes turns astringent. 02 For Iced (Hot Method) Brew double-strength hot, sweeten lightly with honey while warm, then pour over ice. The watermelon comes through cleaner cold than hot. 03 For Cold-Brew 1 tablespoon per litre of cold water, in a jug overnight in the fridge. Strain in the morning. Drinks like a fruit water — built for the picnic. Water ~80°C / cold Time 2–3 min / 8 hrs Per Cup 1 heaped tsp A sprig of fresh mint and a slice of lime in the iced glass takes the cup somewhere closer to a cocktail than a tea. Pour it for guests on a hot day instead of lemonade — same idea, no sugar required. About the Tea 🌿 Chinese Green Tea The Base Pan-fired Chinese green leaf — the same wok-rolled style used in Sampson’s Lucky Dragon and Long Island Strawberry. The cup brews bright and clean, the perfect canvas for fruit. 🍉 Watermelon & Lime The Fruit Dried watermelon pieces and cut lime peel are the two flavours that define the cup. Watermelon adds the soft natural sweetness; lime peel keeps the cup bright. Real fruit, not just flavour drops. 🌺 Hibiscus Touch The Lift A small accent of hibiscus adds a gentle pink tint when iced and a clean tart edge that keeps the watermelon’s sweetness from going slack. The same lift hibiscus brings to a Sangria or a karkadeh. In the tin Green tea, watermelon pieces, lime peel, hibiscus, natural watermelon and lime flavours. Origin & Sourcing Built on Chinese pan-fired green tea — bright and clean — with dried watermelon pieces, cut lime peel and a small accent of hibiscus. Designed for iced drinking and cold-brew jugs more than for hot mugs. Lower in caffeine than a black tea, blended in small batches for the Sampson shelf. Show more
