Every household has its everyday teapot, the one made without thinking and that suits everyone. This blend was designed for that role: a balanced infusion, without rough edges, to be drunk at any hour.

Its base combines rooibos from South Africa, Turkish apple and hibiscus from Burkina Faso, Nigeria and Egypt. Added to these are rosehip, the fruit of the dog rose, two aniseed seeds, caraway and fennel, as well as cornflower petals. No added flavouring, and nothing that is not organic.

In the hand, red and blue, it has a lovely rusticity. The liquor is amber, with rosy glints. On the palate, the rooibos gives a woody, gentle roundness; the apple brings fruit, the hibiscus a touch of acidity, and the caraway, discreet, a slightly spiced background note.

Naturally caffeine-free, this blend can be shared at any time of day, at breakfast, at teatime or after dinner. It pleases children as much as adults. It accompanies a pound cake, a red fruit crumble, a honey toast, and is also enjoyed chilled in summer.

Be patient: ten to twelve minutes are needed, at 100 °C, with 3 to 4 g per 200 ml cup, or 15 to 20 g for a one-litre teapot. For daily drinking, the large formats offered in our shops are the most practical. Then store it at home in a tightly closed box, dry and in the shade.
