Brewing

If you want to make yourself a refreshing drink, Finger Lime Tea will Brighten You With Its Intense Citrus Flavor.

Water temperature: Water should be heated to around 90°C/194°F so that the freeze-dried finger lime releases the natural citrus notes mildly.

Steeping time: It may take up to 1 teaspoon of freeze-dried finger limes pieces to be steeped for 5-7 minutes.

Enhancements: Finger Lime Tea is sour in taste and hence can be sweetened with honey or can be enhanced with lemon and fresh mint.

Iced tea option: Iced tea can be prepared by chilling the tea after steeping the tea leaves and can be served with ice and additional ingredients like citrus slices or cucumber.

Enjoy: Lightly sip either hot or cold, focus on the taste, and let finger lime’s fantastic aroma and flavor wash over you.

Taste Profile

The Finger Lime Tea is sharp with minor notes of lemon and lime, with mild floral notes intertwined within. The natural flavor of the fruit is preserved in the freeze drying process as well, so one can always expect a strong fruit taste which will always be tangy and refreshing.

Although the finger lime’s characteristic 'caviar like' texture does not translate into the tea form, its spirit is still present making the overall flavor definitely silky, clean and uplifting, or in short, very enjoyable to the palate.

This tea is perfect when taken hot when the need is for a warm, citrusy drink or when the day is hot and a cold drink is required.

Its acidity and overall brightness means that it would appeal to any tea drinker who likes their tea to be strong, especially those with a citrus base.
