How is fruit tea made?
There are different recipes used to make refreshing fruit tea blends. Some concoct this beverage as herbal teas, using dried fruits, herbs, leaves, flower petals, and roots for a caffeine-free blend. Some master blenders also found a way to use fruit ingredients to make true teas more flavorful and enjoyable to a younger market.
Since its creation in ancient China, fruit tea, or Chun Mee adapted to suit the changing demands of tea drinkers for hundreds of years and still counting. English tea-making popularized the collaborations of true teas with fruit blends, bringing well-loved infusions such as the Earl Grey tea or the delicious combination of black tea and bergamot oranges to a successful blend.
There are two kinds of fruit tea in the industry. Fruit blend teas are usually combinations of black or green teas with dried fruits, while another is known as mixed fruit teas which are fusions of herbal ingredients and fruits. These fruit blend and mixed teas offer more than 300 selections of fruit teas enjoyed by tea lovers around the world today.
In making fruit teas, the fruit's flesh is grated into strips. These shredded fruit pieces are heated to dry until they are slightly brown. The dried fruit strips are then grilled on a hot, oil-less plane until they turn to a dark brown shade. This heating and drying process gives the inherently sweet flavor of a caffeine-free fruit blend that tastes like a true-leaf tea.
