This blend is available 6/1-9/3 in our Summer fandom rotation!

This Russian-style black tea blend features dark tart cherry and rich star anise, accented against dry and robust Keemun black tea. Don't be afraid, all that dry snarky bite is smoothed and sweetened with a touch of natural cream. Because like the Princess Tutu rival by which this tea was inspired, even the most dark, dry and severe frequently have a secret soft side!

Ingredients: Black tea, sour cherry, star anise, natural cream and black cherry flavorings

Approximately 70mg of caffeine per cup

Steep at 205° F or 96.1°C for 2-4 minutes.

Greatly Enjoyed

Though I'm usually picky when it comes to star anise I decided to give this tea a try because I love cherries and found it utterly delightful. The star anise flavor is definitely present, but I feel like it matches well with all the other flavors. I enjoyed it with some added sugar (I have a huge sweet tooth, though I will say I debated even adding any at all because the first taste without sugar was also very good. I am a sweets fiend at heart though.) and am kicking myself for not getting to it before the seasonal fandom switch. Definitely will be adding to my wishlist so that I remember to snag some (in a bigger bag) if/when it comes back.
