How to make Iced Tea
Use 4 Irish Breakfast tea bags and a family size tea pot. Put one tablespoon of castor sugar and 4 mint leaves in the pot and fill with boiling water. Allow to infuse for 20 minutes. Remove the tea bags and allow to cool. Remove the mint leaves.Pour into a jug of ice cubes and add 1/2pt of orange juice, juice of 1/2 lime, 1/2 orange sliced and the other half of the lime sliced and 4 sprigs of mint. Stir and serve over yet more ice in tall glasses. Variations: leave out the orange juice for a clear tea. Use more sugar if you have a sweet tooth! If you want to use loose tea I would suggest one of the strong breakfast varieties like an Assam, the Irish Breakfast or the Labookellie BOP and use 4 heaped teaspoons. Remember to strain it to get rid of the tea leaves and the mint leaves.
Thanks to a lady at a tasting yesterday who suggested that we put iced tea instructions on the site.We made the with orange juice version 11th June and it was VERY refreshing.

Dear Customers
For a change some Good News! The Shops are OPEN and I am back in the office. My sister has had a wonderful baby boy called Oliver James and they are both doing well. Oliver was born on 21st Feb and is keeping his mum Joanne and Dad Ian very busy!
The new Indian tea is now available so those of you who love the First Flush Assam can refill your cupboards!
I am hopeful that all the recent problems with the virus attack have been sorted out but if anybody has a problem with the site please let me know on the office number or by email as soon as you can. Many thanks to all of you who have helped out so far with this nasty issue. Your support is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your continued loyalty.
