Cherry-Kiwi tea is bold yet balanced. First, you’ll notice the refreshingly sour notes of hibiscus and rosehips which are sweetened by apples, bananas and cherries.

Origins
Cherry-Kiwi fruit blend is a flavor explosion full of amazing sweet and sour taste. What’s more, it’s extra healthy and made with natural ingredients – and to prove our point, we’ll even take a closer look at three of the most prominent ones: hibiscus, rosehips and dandelions. Hibiscus flowers will captivate you at first sight with their deep red color. When covered with hot water, they give the tea a vibrant crimson tinge and a pleasantly sour taste. Hibiscus is native to tropical and subtropical regions, especially Africa and Asia, where its dried calyxes have been used for centuries.
Hibiscus contains:
- organic acids (especially citric & malic acid),
- antioxidants (e.g., flavonoids & anthocyanins),
- vitamin C,
- minerals (calcium, iron, phosphorus).
Rosehip husks, the second prominent ingredient, are the dried fruit of the rosehip (Rosa canina). It’s a common wild plant that can be found almost all over Europe. Its fruits are picked in autumn, when they turn red and ripen. Rosehips were sought after by the ancient Slavs, but today they are valued for their high vitamin content.
Rosehips have:
- high amounts of vitamin C,
- flavonoids & carotenoids,
- tannins,
- pectins,
- organic acids.
Finaly, our golden treasure, the fierce dandelion (Taraxacum officinale). It‘s one of the most precious wild plants in European nature – in spring you can recognize it by its bright yellow flower, in autumn by its typical tufts of fine fluff. It grows almost everywhere, in meadows, gardens and along roadsides. The whole plant can be used: flower, leaves and root have been popular for centuries.
Dandelions are rich in:
- taraxacin,
- inulin,
- flavonoids,
- tannins,
- vitamins (A, C, K).
