Did you know that the tea you are holding is lucky? First of all, it's organic, so no pesticides or chemical fertilizers were used in its manufacture. Ok, that's the result of careful organic processes more than luck, but it's still a good thing! Secondly, peaches and apricots are both fruits that have been considered lucky by various cultures over the centuries.
Ancient Japanese folklore tells the tale of Momotaro, the Peach Boy, born from an enormous peach his parents found floating down a river. Legends tell of Momotaro's great adventures to help bring prosperity and peace to both his parents and his village.
Half a world away, in old England, old tales deem Apricots to be good luck when they turn up in dreams. The ancients believed that such a dream would result in immediate prosperity and recognition for your deeds. Certain legends indicate that King Arthur himself dreamt of Apricots regularly.
The Specialist Tea Company belief maintains that if you combine the two flavors with a high grown organic Ceylon you have what is one of the finest flavored teas on the market - lucky for our sales department, and for your taste buds! This tea is a delight. The citrus flavor of peach swirls and mixes with the sweetness of apricot in a way that tingles the tongue. Try a cup with a dash of milk, and a touch of sugar - then let us know how you do in the luck department!

Brewing Hot
Bring filtered or freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea, 1 tea bag or 1 Q3 single serve packet for each 7-9oz/200-260ml of fluid volume in the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). Add milk and sugar to taste.
Brewing Cold
Iced tea brewing method (Pitcher): (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 slightly heaping teaspoons of loose tea, 6 tea bags or 6 Q3 single serve packets into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Using filtered or freshly drawn cold water, boil and pour 1 1/4 cups/315ml over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the tea or removing the tea bags. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste.
A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water. (Note: Some luxury quality teas may turn cloudy when poured over ice. This is a sign of luxury quality and nothing to worry about.)
Iced tea brewing method (Individual Serving): Place 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea, 1 tea bag or 1 Q3 single serve packet into a teapot for each serving required. Using filtered or freshly drawn cold water, boil and pour 6-7oz/170-200ml per serving over the tea. Cover and let steep for 5 minutes. Add hot tea to a 12oz/375ml acrylic glass filled with ice, straining the tea or removing the bags. Not all of the tea will fit, allowing for approximately an additional 1/2 serving. Sweeten and/or add lemon to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted.
