Customizing Cacao Hull Tea

Blending your Cacao Hull Tea at home!

Customizing your own tea blend at home is very easy once you know a few simple rules.

What is a tea blend?

A tea blend is a simple combination of teas and/or other ingredients to create unique flavors. We prefer tea blends that feature all-natural ingredients.

Start with a base and work your way up.

Our base will be Intrigue’s Cacao Hull Tea. It's always good to know your ingredients. Our tea is very subtle and we recommend citrus and floral notes.
 

 

 

Here is a blend we recently enjoyed:
(makes 2 servings)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Cacao Hull Tea
  • 1/2 teaspoon cassia cinnamon bark (quills or chips)
  • 1 teaspoon dried rose petals
  • 1 teaspoon dried orange peel
  • 12 ounces hot water
  1. Crush spices in a mortar & pestle, or just a short blitz in a coffee grinder.
  2. Add tea and crushed spices to a tea bag, tea infuser or tea pot.
  3. Steep for at least 5 to 10 minutes. (3-4 minutes for leaf tea or herbal tea.)
