Description

A Tea Inspired by Prince – a Tribute to his Art

When Doves Cry is the first of a planned series of Prince Tribute Teas. It is a white tea (a fluffy Bai Mu Dan) flavored with the essence of apricot and vanilla, blended with dried apricots and vanilla beans and crystallized (sugared) violet petals to create an “ocean of violets in bloom.”

The violets add a very slight floral flavor that melds beautifully with the apricot and vanilla. It is light, refreshing, sweet and beautiful.

ingredients: organic white tea, dried apricots, organic vanilla bean, crystallized violet petals and organic natural flavors.
