Blend of the Day: Russian Caravan Black Tea blend


This blend comes from our Boston, Massachusetts store in the Shops at Prudential Center. It is highly recommended for black tea lovers and has a deliciously complex flavor. Here’s the tea blend:

Mix equal parts Lapsang Souchong Organic black tea, Keemun Imperial black tea and Ceylon Vithanakande black tea. All of these are pure (not flavored or scented) black teas, but each adds a little bit of a unique taste to the overall blend. I would try 1 teaspoon of each to start, then you can adjust the amount depending on your tastes. Heat water to just below boiling and steep for 2-3 minutes.

This is very good for helping to lower your cholesterol, keeping blood vessels soft, and gently stimulating your heart. It also helps promote healthy skin, teeth, and bones.

Give this blend a try with and without milk and sugar, depending on your tastes. And let us know what you think.
