I love when I get to do a little tea session with multiple teas. This pretty packaged Purple Tea Trio from Justea was super fun and the perfect choice to use for my own private tea party for one! I love the hand-carved wooden spoons that come with their tea tins!
These were all such delicious teas; it was hard to choose a favorite. If you've tried purple tea, you know that it comes with it's own unique flavor; nothing like common greens and blacks. Purple tea has antioxidants that are comparable to dark fruits like blueberries, acai, and blackberries (and wine...red wine is dark and fruity, right?).
We'll start with Purple Jasmine. I always make a face just before I take the first sip of a floral tea (I'm not a huge fan of florals); especially jasmine because I almost ALWAYS over-steep it. I was super careful to time all of my steeps as instructed for this tea so that I could get it right! I'm pleasantly surprised! The floral notes are apparent, but not overpowering at all. This one has green tea blended in so, it's perfect for an afternoon brew to get you through the rest of your day with a little caffeine boost.
Next up, Purple Rain. A refreshing blend of fruits and tart flavors. This is good as a hot brew, but it's so much better (in my opinion) as an iced tea. Pretty, red, and tart from rosehips and hydrating hibiscus. Mmmm, so delicious!
Finally, Purple Chocolate. I'm pretty sure this is my favorite. I mean...it's chocolate, right? This definitely has a strong chocolate flavor and aroma which, I'm loving! Cacao shell tea on it's own is slightly bitter, but this blend is a nice, smooth tea that I could sip all day long.
There are PLENTY of teas to choose from on their website, but if you haven't tried purple tea, this trio variety is a great way to do a little tasting session. Check them out at https://justea.com/product/purple-trio
