Savory Teas

A savory tea is a melange of vegetables, herbs, spices and tea.   Numi produces 6 blends of interesting savory teas:  Carrot Curry, Fennel Spice, Spinach Chive, Tomato Mint, Beet Cabbage, and Broccoli Cilantro.   Following are four of the six blends.  They all contain decaffeinated green or black teas.

Savory teas

To make a cup or a bowl of savory tea, brew one tea bag in hot water for over 10 minutes.  What are the infusions like?  They come close to salt-free vegetable broths.   Take Fennel Spice for example, it has a strong flavor of fennel and no hints of green tea.  As for Tomato Mint, it is zesty, minty and spicy.  

The ingredients in Fennel Spice are organic fennel, organic celery root, organic orange peel, organic onion, organic dill, organic decaf green tea, organic honeybush and organic black pepper.   The ingredients in Tomato Mint are organic tomato, organic onion, organic mint, organic lemon peel, organic parsley, organic cinnamon, organic black pepper, organic decaf black tea, and organic allspice.
