About this Tea:

Sugar Plum Spice captures the enchantment of the Sugar Plum Fairy in a vibrant herb and fruit infusion that feels both nostalgic and timeless. Inspired by the magic of The Nutcracker, this naturally caffeine-free blend transforms familiar holiday flavors into a cup that invites warmth, connection, and celebration.

Sweet apple and rich elderberry create a luscious, fruit-filled foundation as rosehip, hibiscus, and grapefruit peel brighten the cup with lively tartness. Undertones of delicate licorice notes of star anise enhance the fruit's natural sweetness. Cinnamon and nutmeg weave comforting warmth through every sip, layering notes of baked spice, sweet wood, and a whisper of pine. Mistletoe adds subtle herbal character, evoking the festive traditions that gather family and friends together, while plum petals offer a graceful nod to the beloved ballet.

Steeped in seasonal wonder, the result is a brilliant ruby-red infusion that is bold, juicy, gently spiced, and refreshingly vibrant with a lingering tart finish. Delicious served hot for cozy winter nights or iced for lively seasonal gatherings. Sugar Plum Spice is a great addition for gift shops and cafés to spice up their holiday menu, and for holiday markets to keep guests warm. Brew and serve to feel the spirit of holiday magic in every cup, any time of year.
