There is no popcorn in Popcorn Cherry Bliss. The nod comes from the puffed rice and the cornflower petals; the sweetness comes from candied cherries, red berries and white chocolate flakes scattered through a green tea base. Sweet and fruity in the cup with a creamy white-chocolate finish, and as good over ice as it is hot. Loose-leaf tea, 100 g. The white chocolate flakes contain milk.

Where the popcorn comes in

There is no popcorn in this blend. The name comes from the puffed rice and the cornflower petals scattered through it, which is also what gives the dry leaf its party look. What you taste is fruit and cream: candied cherries and red berries first, apple pieces and currants behind them, and white chocolate flakes melting into a soft finish. Underneath it all sits green tea, with blackcurrant leaves adding a darker berry note.

Green tea, so mind the water

Boiling water is the one thing that will spoil this. Green tea turns sharp at full heat and the cherry and white chocolate notes vanish behind the bitterness. Let the kettle stand a minute, so the water is around 70 to 80°C, use roughly two teaspoons per 200 ml and steep for two to three minutes. Give the leaves room while they do it: the fruit pieces swell a good deal, so a wide infuser or a filter bag works better than a tight ball.

Over ice

Brew it twice as strong, at the same water temperature, let it cool and pour it over ice with a wedge of lemon. The cherry and berry notes come forward when the tea is cold.

FAQ
Customer Questions
Does Popcorn Cherry Bliss green tea contain caffeine?

Yes. The base of this blend is green tea and green tea naturally contains caffeine, also known as theine. How much ends up in your cup depends on the dosage, the water temperature and the steeping time.

If you are looking for a caffeine free tea, take a look at our rooibos and our herbal infusions. Those naturally contain no caffeine.

How do I brew Popcorn Cherry Bliss at its best?

Use about 2 teaspoons per 200 ml of water at 70 to 80 degrees and let the tea steep for 2 to 3 minutes.

Do not use boiling water. It makes green tea bitter, and the sweet cherry and white chocolate notes then fade into the background. So let your kettle cool down for a minute before you pour.

Is there really popcorn in Popcorn Cherry Bliss?

No. The popcorn nod comes from the puffed rice and the cornflower petals in the blend, not from real popcorn. Together with the candied cherries and the white chocolate flakes, that gives the tea the playful, sweet character it owes its name to.

The full ingredients list is: green tea, oiled currants, apple pieces, white chocolate flakes, candied cherries, blackcurrant leaves, flavouring, redcurrants, puffed rice, cornflower petals and natural flavouring.

Is Popcorn Cherry Bliss vegan or lactose free?

No. This blend contains white chocolate flakes and those contain milk. Popcorn Cherry Bliss is therefore not vegan and not lactose free.

If you have an allergy or intolerance, always read the ingredients list on the packaging you receive. That is what counts.

Can I also make iced tea with Popcorn Cherry Bliss?

Yes, this tea is certainly as good cold as it is hot. Brew it twice as strong as usual, let it cool down and pour it over ice cubes with a wedge of lemon.

Even when brewing it stronger, keep the water temperature at 70 to 80 degrees so the green tea does not turn bitter. The fruity cherry and berry notes come through especially well when cold.

Do I need a tea strainer for Popcorn Cherry Bliss and how do I store the tea?

Yes, this is loose tea, so you need a tea strainer, a tea filter or a loose filter bag. Choose one with plenty of room, because the tea leaves and the fruit pieces expand considerably while steeping.

Store the tea dry, dark and tightly closed. That keeps the aroma and the flavour of the cherries and the white chocolate at their best for longest.
