About Black Tea
Black Tea is arguably the most common base ingredient for Flavoured Tea. It is one of the four primary types, the others being Green, White and Oolong. The difference between each one is the processing of the leaf, with Black Tea being the most oxidised variety. This oxidation has a dramatic influence on its chemical structure, and ultimately, its taste.
When brewed, non-flavoured Black Tea boasts distinct, often full-bodied notes sometimes defined as malty, earthy, spicy or chocolatey. Yet Strawberry Tea goes above and beyond traditional cuppas with its extraordinary fruity overtones. What’s not to like?

Benefits of Drinking Strawberry Tea
Black Tea, regardless of the type, can enhance cognitive function, thus reducing the risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease.
A study conducted at the University of Singapore and published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition can explain how. The research project saw some 2,500 participants aged 55 or over undergo cognitive measuring.
Two years later, scientists remeasured those involved. The results established that participants who drank two or three cups of Black Tea a day had a 55% lower chance of suffering from cognitive decline. Those who drank six to ten cups a day, meanwhile, had up to a 63% lower chance.
