Kir Royal - White tea 100 grams - Café du Jour loose tea

What is Kir Royal white tea?

Kir Royal white tea is a flavoured loose-leaf tea blend inspired by the classic French sparkling cocktail. It combines white tea and green tea with a carefully chosen selection of botanicals and fruits to create a light, champagne-like character with a fresh, fruity taste. The result is a smooth cup that leaves no lingering aftertaste.

What goes into the blend?

Every ingredient in this blend plays a role in building its distinctive flavour. The base of white tea and green tea provides a delicate, gentle foundation, while the other components add layers of fruit and floral notes.

• White tea - soft and subtle base
• Green tea - light, grassy depth
• Verbena leaf - a bright, citrus-like lift
• Lemongrass - fresh and slightly tangy
• Blackcurrants - rich, dark berry flavour
• Red rose petals - delicate floral character
• Sunflower blossoms - gentle, mild sweetness
• Red berries - a rounded fruity finish
• Flavouring - ties the whole blend together

Who is it suitable for?

This tea suits anyone who enjoys a light, fruity cup without bitterness or a heavy aftertaste. It is a great choice for tea lovers who want something a little more festive than an everyday brew. If you are curious about flavoured white tea blends, Kir Royal white tea is an inviting place to start.

A non-alcoholic alternative with character

Because of its champagne-like character, this tea works well as a non-alcoholic option at celebrations or dinner parties. You can serve it hot or let it cool and pour it over ice for a refreshing drink that feels a little special. It pairs nicely with light desserts, fruit tarts, or soft cheeses.

How do you use Kir Royal white tea?

Brewing Kir Royal white tea is straightforward. Because white and green tea leaves are more delicate than black tea, you get good results with water that is hot but not boiling. This keeps the flavour smooth and avoids any unwanted bitterness.

Step-by-step brewing guide

1. Heat fresh water to around 75-80 degrees Celsius.
2. Use approximately 2 to 3 grams of loose-leaf tea per 200 ml of water.
3. Place the leaves in a strainer, infuser or teapot.
4. Pour the hot water over the leaves.
5. Steep for 2 to 3 minutes - taste as you go.
6. Remove the leaves and enjoy your cup.

A 100g pack gives you roughly 40 to 50 cups, depending on how much leaf you use and your personal taste. You can re-steep the leaves once for a lighter second cup.
