Boysenberry Tea is a flavored black tea with a jammy, rich berry character — boysenberry (a hybrid of blackberry, raspberry, loganberry, and dewberry) delivers a deep, complex berry profile with more tartness than simple strawberry and more sweetness than pure blackberry. The flavor pairs naturally with full-bodied black tea, where the berry’s richness complements the tea’s malt and the tartness keeps the cup balanced and lively.
In quality loose-leaf versions, boysenberry flavoring is derived from natural fruit extracts and dried berry components. The jammy, wine-like quality of boysenberry works particularly well in black tea blends.
In the cup, Boysenberry Tea brews a deep amber with a rich, fruity-berry aroma. The body is medium-full, the fruit character is jammy and vivid, and the finish is clean with a pleasant tartness.
Brew at 195°F for 3–4 minutes. Use 2 grams per 8-ounce cup.
