Why buy
KAYTEA iced hibiscus tea Pineapple Passion Fruit brings refreshing lightness and perfectly quenches thirst with a subtle hint of sweetness.
This organic iced tea is enriched with exciting botanical flavours that will make it your favourite companion not only during the summer.
No artificial ingredients or exaggerated health claims - just the best of tea infusion*.
*Infusion vs. industrially processed powders: infusion is a process in which fresh tea leaves or herbs are steeped in water, allowing the natural release of flavours, aromas and active ingredients directly from the ingredients.
Unlike industrially processed powders, which can be depleted of the tea's natural properties, the infusion preserves the original character of the tea leaves, their delicate taste and nutritional values.
This approach is reflected in the quality of the drink – while KAYTEA pays attention to an authentic infusion processthat delivers a fuller, more natural flavor no unnecessary additives, the classic Lipton offering has long focused on core flavorssuch as peach and lemon, which are made from industrially processed tea powders, not fresh tea leaves. Instead of focusing on quality, the focus is on quantity and quick profit, which we do not support in our e-shop.

Does this iced tea contain caffeine?
No, this tea does not contain any caffeine, making it an ideal choice for those looking for a refreshing drink without the stimulating effects. The base of this drink is organic hibiscus tea, known for its slightly sour taste and deep red colour.
Hibiscus is native to tropical regions, especially Africa and Asia, where it has been used for centuries to prepare traditional drinks such as the popular "karkade "*.
In addition to its unique taste, hibiscus contains natural vitamin C, anthocyanins and other plant substances that contribute to its rich flavour and distinctive colour.
These ingredients give it a characteristic freshness and make it the perfect base for natural iced teas. The absence of caffeine makes this tea suitable for all-day consumption.
*Karkade is a traditional drink made from hibiscus flowers, specifically the Hibiscus sabdariffa species. This drink is particularly popular in North Africa, the Middle East and parts of Asia, where it is drunk both hot and cold.
Karkade is deep red in colour, has a distinct bitter taste and is often sweetened with sugar or honey to balance the flavour. It is popular for its refreshing properties and is considered a drink suitable for warm climates. In addition to hibiscus, it may contain other ingredients such as cinnamon, mint or citrus to enrich the flavour.
Karkade also has historical uses in traditional cultures. In Egypt, it is known as a drink that is often served on festive occasions, and is considered a symbol of hospitality.

What does the "Cold Brew" method mean?
Cold brewing is a method of preparing tea in which the tea leaves are steeped in cold, filtered water for an extended period of time, usually 6 to 12 hours. This slow process gently extracts the delicate flavors of the tea while minimizing the release of tannins, which are responsible for the bitterness.
The result is a smoother and naturally sweeter drink that enhances the delicate aromas and botanical notes contained in the tea leaves. In addition, this process preserves the tea's valuable antioxidants, making it a refreshing and healthier alternative to traditionally brewed tea.
When this method is used in the production of iced tea in cans, the drink retains its artisanal quality but is adapted for larger production. Premium tea leaves are steeped to bring out the flavour and avoid bitterness, then the tea is carefully filtered for a pure consistency.
To enhance the natural flavour, a small amount of organic unrefined cane sugar is added to gently sweeten the drink while supporting its natural flavour notes without being too sweet.
For example, green tea with peach contains only 3.5 grams of sugar per 100 ml, which gives a slightly sweet taste that will please even those who watch their sugar intake.
The precisely measured amount of organic cane sugar ensures a balanced flavour profile that naturally enhances the sweetness of the tea without adding unnecessary calories.
Packaging in recyclable aluminium cans ensures freshness, convenience and less impact on the environment, which is in line with sustainable practices.
KAYTEA combines authentic cold brewmethods, practical packaging and ecological approachesto create a product that excels in quality, great taste and consideration for the planet.

What does it mean when iced tea is prepared by the "Cold Brew" method?
Cold brew teas are teas that are prepared in a cold way. Instead of hot water, cold or room temperature water is used in which the tea leaves are steeped for a longer period of time, usually 6 to 12 hours.
This extraction process produces a milder, smoother and less bitter taste than traditionally prepared hot teas.
Cold brew teas can be made from a variety of tea leaves, including black, green, herbal or fruit teas. This method of preparation is popular for its refreshing taste and can be served with ice. Cold brew teas also usually contain less caffeine than their hot counterparts.
Why should we drink tea blend drinks?
Drinking tea, iced tea, matcha or iced tea with electrolytes is generally beneficial for several reasons.
Natural teas and iced teas enriched with electrolytes provide refreshing hydration, which is especially important on hot days or after physical activity. Electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium and magnesium, help maintain the proper fluid balance in the body. In addition, electrolytes are crucial for proper muscle and nervous system function, so consuming drinks with electrolytes can help maintain energy and performance throughout the day. They also play an important role in regulating blood pH and acid-base balance, which is essential for proper body function.
Another benefit of teas, especially green and matcha blends, is their antioxidant content, which helps neutralize free radicals and promote overall health. Adding electrolytes to these drinks increases their nutritional value.
All in all, drinking these drinks (with electrolytes) contributes to better health, energy and hydration, which is beneficial for everyday life and physical activity.
