Jade Citrus Mint Tea is a premium loose leaf green tea blend featuring smooth Japanese green tea, spearmint, lemongrass, lemon verbena, orange peel, marigold flowers, and natural citrus flavor for a bright, refreshing cup with a cool mint finish. Inspired by the popular café-style “Medicine Ball” and Teavana-style citrus mint teas, this blend delivers a clean, uplifting flavor that is both soothing and invigorating.
Built on a high-quality Japanese green tea base, this blend offers a smooth, lightly vegetal foundation with moderate caffeine for steady, natural energy. The green tea provides gentle body and subtle sweetness, while spearmint adds a cooling, refreshing character that lifts the entire cup. Lemongrass and lemon verbena introduce soft citrus notes that brighten the flavor without overwhelming it.
Each infusion brews into a pale golden-green cup with a crisp, aromatic profile. The flavor opens with cooling mint and soft green tea, followed by bright citrus and floral undertones. Orange peel adds a subtle sweetness and depth, while marigold flowers contribute a light, delicate floral finish. The result is a balanced tea that is refreshing hot or iced.
Jade Citrus Mint Tea is especially popular as a base for homemade honey citrus mint drinks and iced green tea blends. It is equally enjoyable on its own as a clean everyday green tea or lightly sweetened with honey for a soothing, café-style beverage.
