This tea is packed with vitamins, beta-carotene, and antioxidants, not to mention the delicious flavors of an earthy summer day...

We are so excited to have a guest post by Brian McFarland of Carbonfund.org featuring the Purus Project in the Amazon! Because we source our organic acai berry powder, catuaba bark, pau d’arco bark, and other products from Brazil, we understand its global ecological importance as a carbon sequestration area for the world.

One of my favorite tea-making strategies is to take a delicious tea blend that I love and add extra goodness to it with organic herbs and berries. It is a great way to get extra nutritive, calming, and health benefits out of a cup of tea. This tea is all about healthy calm while building on the yummy flavors in our organic Peace Tea (like spearmint, lavender and rose). I like to toss in some nettle leaf and schisandra berries. Feel free to substitute other herbs that speak to you when the stressors of life start to wear you down!

My garden is having a banner strawberry year! We've been eating everything from strawberry shortcake, tossed salads made with greens, onions and strawberries, and just eating those delicious morsels straight from the strawberry patch! I thought I'd let June's red harbingers of summer be my guide and inspire the creation of a delicious iced tea. Mix this up by the cup or for a crowd. It has the added bonus of smelling amazing!
