The Purple Testament
$21.00
This purple tea is a gift from the highlands of Kenya. Inhale the sun dried juniper berries splayed out on grassy plateaus. The tea leaves grow out purple due to a natural genetic mutation. This yields to elevated levels of anthocyanins, a potent antioxidant found in red/blue/purple fruits and vegetables. Low astringency eliminates a bulk of the bitterness. Squeeze a lemon slice into the finished brew for a visual treat.
Serving Suggestion: start with 3-4 grams or 1 teaspoon in 8-10 ounces of water at 175 degrees Fahrenheit then steep for 3-4 minutes.
