This Earl Grey blend is a full-bodied organic Indian black tea from Nilgiri with blue Malva flowers and natural bergamot essence. Blue Malva is a wild flower plant that grows in prairies and pastures up to 3 - 4 feet high with bluish-purple blossoms. The blue malva flower has properties that can soothe a sore throat caused by coughs and colds, yet in our Earl Grey blend is useful to smooth out the flavor level of the citrus bergamot. Our Blue Flower Earl Grey may be the blend you have been looking for if you've found Earl Grey teas to be too overpowering in the past.
Heat water (filtered if possible) to boiling 212˚F, let it cool slightly to around 190˚F and add one full teaspoon loose leaf tea per cup (apprx. 8 ounces). Infuse the loose tea for 3–5 minutes depending on taste preference.
