{"product_id":"green-fusion","title":"Green Fusion","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe green tea for people who think they don't like green tea.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Japanese organic green tea base, softened by spearmint and brightened by lemongrass. The spearmint is naturally sweet and rounds out the vegetal edge that makes most green teas taste too grassy. The lemongrass adds a citrus lift without bitterness. The result is a cup that tastes clean, cooling, refreshing. Light enough for afternoon sipping. Smooth enough to drink unsweetened.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy spearmint, not peppermint.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpearmint contains less menthol than peppermint, which is why it tastes sweeter and softer. Peppermint brings a sharp cooling sensation that can overpower delicate tea leaves. Spearmint integrates. The sweetness balances the vegetal notes in the green tea without masking them. The pairing shows up across Middle Eastern and North African tea traditions for the same reason: the two work together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe iced ritual.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrew strong (1 teaspoon in 8 ounces at 175°F for 3 minutes), sweeten lightly with honey while the tea is still warm, then pour over a tall glass of ice. The mint amplifies when cold. The lemongrass stays bright. The green tea base holds it all together. Drinks like a spa water that actually tastes like something.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yerba Buena Tea Co.","offers":[{"title":"Tea Tin","offer_id":47256304845122,"sku":"SQ8045062","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tea Refill","offer_id":47256304877890,"sku":"SQ8045063","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0806\/0862\/4962\/files\/green-fusion-loose-leaf-tea-ybtco.webp?v=1779851321","url":"https:\/\/ybtco.mom\/products\/green-fusion","provider":"Yerba Buena Tea Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
