Love from the Caribbean is a loose-leaf fruit infusion of lemongrass, candied mango and pineapple, apple pieces and toasted coconut flakes. There is no tea leaf in the blend, so there is no caffeine either — just ripe tropical fruit with a warm, nutty finish from the coconut. Brew it with freshly boiled water for five to seven minutes, or make it stronger and pour it over ice. Supplied in a 100 g pack.
Details

Love from the Caribbean fruit tea

This is a loose-leaf fruit infusion rather than a tea: lemongrass, candied mango, candied pineapple, apple pieces and toasted coconut flakes, with no tea leaf in the blend and therefore no caffeine. The mango and pineapple carry the sweetness, the lemongrass keeps it fresh instead of syrupy, and the coconut leaves a warm, nutty finish.

What is in the blend

  • Lemongrass
  • Candied mango pieces (mango, sugar, citric acid)
  • Candied pineapple pieces (pineapple, sugar, citric acid)
  • Apple pieces
  • Sweetened toasted coconut flakes (coconut, sugar)

Contains coconut, and added sugar from the candied fruit.

Brewing it hot and cold

Dried fruit and coconut need heat and time, so use freshly boiled water and give it five to seven minutes in a strainer, infuser or filter pot; leave it longer if you want the pineapple to come through harder. For iced tea, brew it stronger than you would drink it hot, let it cool and pour it over plenty of ice. A slice of fresh pineapple in the glass picks up what is already in the blend.

FAQ
Customer Questions
Does Love from the Caribbean fruit tea contain caffeine?

No. This fruit tea is made up of lemongrass, fruit pieces and coconut and contains no leaf from the tea plant. That means there is no caffeine in it and you can drink it at any time of day.

Which fruits are in Love from the Caribbean?

The blend contains lemongrass, candied mango pieces, candied pineapple pieces (14%), apple pieces, sugared and toasted coconut flakes and banana chips, among other things. That combination gives this tea its tropical, sweet character. You will find the full ingredients list on the packaging.

Is there sugar in Love from the Caribbean tea?

Yes. The mango and pineapple pieces are candied and the coconut flakes are sugared, so the blend does contain sugar. In your cup you mainly taste that as a natural sweetness, which means extra sugar is usually not needed. For the exact composition, check the packaging.

Can you make Love from the Caribbean as iced tea?

Yes, this tropical fruit tea is excellent for iced tea. We advise brewing the tea twice as strong as usual, letting it cool and then adding ice cubes and, if you like, a slice of lemon. You can also brew it cold: let the tea steep for 4 to 12 hours in the fridge, depending on how strong you want it.

How do you brew Love from the Caribbean and how many cups are in 100 grams?

Use around 2 grams per cup, pour over boiling water and let the tea steep for 6 to 8 minutes. Fruit tea does not turn bitter from a longer steeping time, so feel free to wait a little longer for more flavour. At 2 grams per cup, this 100 gram bag gives you about 50 cups. Because this is loose tea, you need a tea strainer, tea filter or filter bag.
