Less than a decade ago, a dessert teas was a refined high quality unflavoured or flavoured tea enjoyed on special occasions. But today, there’s a whole new world of dessert teas that are inspired by actual desserts. Not only do they taste like the real treats, but they are also calorie free and may provide many benefits. Plum Tart, a caffeine-free dessert tea from Biscuit & Brew Tea House is both super pretty and super delicious.
What is Plum Tart?
Plum Tart tea blend from Biscuit & Brew Tea House (formerly Arthur Dove), is a caffeine-free herbal tea blend inspired by a delicious sweet and zesty plum tart with a hint of cinnamon. The base of this tea is rich and earthy red rooibos tea (Aspalathus linearis). Red rooibos comes from South Africa, and unlike other teas, it’s not grown on other continents or even in other countries. With its rich, earthy, and full-bodied flavour, red rooibos tea makes a perfect base for Plum Tart blend.
This blend also contains elderberries, cinnamon, hibiscus, apple pieces, rosehip and natural flavouring. Plum Tart smells delicious – deep, fruity, intense, with prominent red rooibos base mixed with fruity richness, hints of cinnamon and juicy zestiness.
How does it taste?
One of the great things about rooibos tea is that it’s perfect for busy tea drinkers because it will never become bitter, even if you steep it for 30 minutes or longer. The flavour profile won’t change either, and it will taste delicious cold too.
To make a perfect cup of Plum Tart tea, steep 2 teaspoons of tea leaves in a cup of freshly boiled water for 5-10 minutes. It steeps into a deep red-brown tea, with a delicious intense scent of a sweet and juicy fruit tart. It’s extremely flavourful and rich, with notes of cinnamon and hibiscus. There’s enough of natural sweetness and flavour, so it’s great without a sweetener. If you want to make it sweeter, brown sugar would be a perfect choice. This tea is best without milk.
If you are looking for a delicious late evening tea, Plum Tart is naturally caffeine free and won’t interfere with your sleep. This tea blend is great for tea lovers that enjoy rich and sweet fruity and berry blends and want to enjoy the benefits of red rooibos tea. If you love intense fruity flavours and hibiscus and rosehips teas, this blend is an amazing choice.
