Health properties
Effects of PINEAPPLE PARADISE
Tropical freshness with Guayusa
PINEAPPLE PARADISE combines Guayusa with pineapple, lemongrass and hibiscus. Its natural caffeine comes from Guayusa and can support alertness and attention. Fruit, citrus aroma and a hint of tartness give the brew its tropical character.
More than a fruit note
The ingredients bring together different plant compounds and flavours: chlorogenic acids from Guayusa, red pigments from hibiscus and the fresh aroma of lemongrass. What matters in your tea is how the whole blend works together. A brew is different from fresh pineapple or an isolated, concentrated compound.
Your energy iced tea
Prepare the blend as tea, let it cool and serve it over ice. That way, you decide whether and how much to sweeten it. Using fewer leaves is a good starting point if you prefer a lighter taste. The drink still contains caffeine when served cold.

P
schmeckt wie Früchtetee... nur ohne die lästige Fruchtsäure, auf die ich leider allergisch bin.
Ich lieb die Sorte!
S
Die süßliche Ananas Note war das erste, was mir in die Nase gestiegen ist, als ich die Tüte öffnete. Der Tee ist sehr mild, fruchtig und bei warmen Temperaturen prima als cold brew zu trinken oder auch heiß. Die Ananasstückchen sind auch sehr lecker zum so knabbern beziehungsweise später wieder aus dem Teesieb in aufgeweichter Form auch noch aromatisch.
Die Tüte musste ich vorher gut durchschütteln, da sonst die kleinen Teepartikel unten sind, aber kleines fällt nun mal nach unten.

super lecker. angenhm tropisch fruchtig , aber nicht süß.
die wirkung für mich absolut top. pure ist mir zu heftig.
auch kalt oder als cold brew super

Eine absolut interessante leckere Teemischung, und dann noch mit Guayusa. Sowohl kalt, als auch heiß zu empfehlen.
