Florapharm Gingerbread House Tea 100 g

Florapharm's Gingerbread House tea combines loose leaf black tea with candied fruit, roasted almonds and warming spices. When steeped in freshly boiled water, the blend releases flavours of cinnamon, beetroot and tropical fruit, along with the toasted crunch of almonds and popcorn. The ingredients infuse at different rates, so the full character develops gradually rather than all at once.

To prepare, place one teaspoon of the loose leaves per cup in an infuser or teapot. Pour water at 100 °C over the blend and let it steep for 8 to 10 minutes. A longer infusion deepens the colour and enhances the spice notes from the cinnamon sticks and beetroot, while the candied pineapple and papaya soften and sweeten the liquor. Once the time is up, remove the leaves to avoid over-brewing.

The ingredients include apple bits, candied pineapple and papaya, cinnamon sticks, beetroot bits, roasted almonds, popcorn, raisins, peanut bits and coconut chips. Each component is visible, giving the dry leaves a varied texture and colour. The tea needs no extra sweetener, as the candied fruit and coconut chips provide natural sweetness during steeping.

The 100 g pack keeps the tea fresh in an airtight container, away from strong odours, to protect the delicate fruit and spice aromas.

This blend belongs to the speciality fruit and spice infusions in the Florapharm loose leaf tea range.
