TuVunu Greek Mountain Tea 4.05

Tuvunu Greek Mountain Tea

Greek Mountain Tea or “Sideritis” is one of the most aromatic and
beneficial indigenous herbs of the Mediterranean. Here at Tuvunu we
decided to make it available for the very first time as a healthy, all
natural ready to drink beverage that can be enjoyed throughout the
year, cold or hot, anywhere in the world.

So we combined the wisdom of Hippocrates with one of our grandmothers’
favorite recipes that was typically boiled and enjoyed hot in the
winter, to create a new healthy beverage that can be enjoyed during
the summer: Iced Greek Mountain Tea with fresh squeezed lemons,
wildflower honey and brown sugar that’s ready to drink anytime,
anywhere. That’s Tuvunu!

And although the process appears quite simple, over three years of
extensive research and in-house taste testing revealed a number of
secrets that allow Tuvunu to highlight Greek Mountain Tea’s natural
flavor and distinctive aroma. The dried flowers are brought to a slow
boil in the ice cold water that comes to us from the natural springs
Rhodope mountains in Thrace. During this process, TUVUNU’s unique
aroma emerges almost immediately, due to the activation of the plant’s
natural oils at the start of the heating process; shortly thereafter,
when the tea reaches a boil, the beneficial flavonoids are released
from the plant’s tissue, which gives our all-natural beverage its
characteristic color. No additives are used, except for Greek
wildflower honey and lemon juice that we squeeze fresh on our
premises, with lemons sourced exclusively from the citrus groves of
southern Greece.
