Not only can tea be your source of caffeine, but it can also be a good source of nutrition! Teas can be a great source of hydration. Plus they contains lots of antioxidants that can help keep your body healthy!
Tea blends can offer even more nutritional value from their added fruits and herbs. For example, an adaptogen blend contains more health benefits than you can get from a straight black tea.

We also offer a unique seasonal blend called Springdrop Spritzer. This one is only available during the short months of spring! Springdrop Spritzer contains a light green tea with a bold herbal blend of rosemary, lemon, cardamom, and peppermint.
In addition to our delectable green teas, we also offer a milk oolong citrus blend called Capri Cream. This tea is creamy, yet fruity and is (of course) caffeinated.
How Oolongs Are Different
The process for creating oolong tea is similar to black tea.The leaves begin to ferment and oxidize. Like green tea, however, the leaves are lightly heated before they complete this process!
This results in partially oxidized leaves that create a delicious brew. Because of this, oolong teas have a stronger taste than a green tea, yet less caffeine than a black tea.
The milk oolong in our Capri Cream was heated with steamed milk. This gives the tea a creamy texture which pairs nicely with the persimmons and citrus for a pop of fruity flavor.
