Description

Imagine being whisked away to an bright, fresh apricot orchard... That's the sensation you'll get with your first sip of our delectable Honeybush Apricot tea. Combining the sweet flavor of ripe summer apricots with the rich taste of Honeybush herbal tea, you can experience it year-round.

Story

In Latin apricot means "precious," a label earned because it ripens earlier than most summer fruits. A relative of the peach, the apricot was originally found growing wild on the mountain slopes of China more than 4,000 years ago. Apricots progressively made their way through the Persian Empire to the Mediterranean where they were fondly adopted. Spanish explorers introduced the apricot to the New World, and they were planted in the gardens of Spanish missions all over California. The first recorded major production of apricots in America was in 1792 south of San Francisco.

"A good combination. My wife and I like this but favor the Honeybush Mango for a fruit flavored Honeybush. "

"Classic fruity taste without the overwhelming sweetness. A perfect tea as long as you like rooibos teas."

"I am a total fan of all the honeybush flavors. I think it is even nicer than rooibos! This one is very nice and subtle!"

"I tend to really love most fruit flavored rooibos and honeybush teas. Apricot can be a fairly overpowering flavor (but I mean that in a wonderful way), but I find this reserved use of apricot here to be a well-balanced blend that allows it to blend well with honeybush and they compliment one another quite well. This is comparable to the simple and uncomplicated brew to the other fruit infused blends of rooibos/honeybush available, which all take sweeteners well. Don't expect a big apricot punch or a beverage as complex as (C. sinensis) teas gives you. However, when you want a simple, satisfying after-meal sweet-tea brew (like me with a particular penchant for something sweet, but not heavy, after meals) this one hits the spot.."

"Very tasty and delightful. Not usually a fan of fruity teas, but I've found I really enjoy all of the ones combined either with honeybush or rooibos."
