Tangerine Puer Tea

Drink Your Tea Fully Aware

“Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the earth revolves—slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future.”
— Thich Nhat Hanh, "The Miracle of Mindfulness"

This is one of his most well-known teachings. Drinking tea is not just drinking—it’s a meditation. When we are fully present with our cup of tea, we are in touch with life, with the present moment. There is no need to hurry. The tea becomes a doorway to the wonders of life.

INGREDIENTS:

pu erh tea, tangerine peel

TASTING NOTES:

IN A NUTSHELL:

Packing pu erh tea inside a dried tangerine peel acts as a natural container and flavor enhancer for the tea.

Tangerine balls are particularly popular in Chinese tea culture. They make great gifts for tea enthusiasts!

BREW TIPS:

• Peel and Tea Together: Some people brew the tea directly with bits of the tangerine peel for a stronger citrus flavor.
• Tea Only: Others prefer removing the tea and brewing it separately for a subtler hint of citrus.

STEEP: 

Add half or more of the tea inside the tangerine peel to an infuser and steep for 3-5 mins. Adjust based on how strong you like your tea.
