Blueberry Green Tea is made with a luxury Pekoe gunpowder base from Sri Lanka and is blended with corn flower petals and natural blueberry flavor. The cup holds a very aromatic nose and the blueberry flavor literally fills the cup.
Background of this tea:
Man-o-man, people LOVE blueberries. Way back in the 1800's a lady named Elizabeth Jane Asty who lived in Yarmouth, Nova Schotia penned an ode to the small sweet fruit. The final stanza reads as follows, "And theres the pleasure without word, the thim of the heart no word can fit, when the mouth takes in a blueberry pearl and the tongue can copy the stain of it." In deed, the blueberry is a delicious and nutritous treat. Taste of the blueberries is intense with a slight astringency a note common to most dark berries. Blueberries are indeed proven to be good for the heart due to the high levels of antioxidants. Infact research by the USDA indicates that blueberries rank #1 in antioxidant activity compared to 40 other fruits.
