A bright green tea paired with lemon ginger. A bold black tea blended with peach. A refreshing green tea infused with mint.
The possibilities are nearly endless.
This month, we're sharing one of our favorite combinations featuring just better.® prebiotic fiber and just better.® allulose for a refreshing summer beverage that delivers functional sweetness and gut-healthy prebiotic fiber in every glass.
Why Blend Teas?
Tea blending has been practiced for centuries. Many commercially available teas are actually carefully crafted blends designed to create balanced flavors and aromas.
Creating your own blends at home is surprisingly easy.
Traditional teas such as green, black, white, and oolong teas provide the foundation. Herbal teas contribute additional flavor notes ranging from citrus and berries to herbs and spices.
The result is a custom beverage that feels a little special while requiring almost no extra effort.
If you've never experimented with tea blending before, National Iced Tea Month is the perfect excuse to start.
Our Favorite Summer Blend
For this recipe, we paired green tea with lemon ginger herbal tea.
The green tea provides a light, refreshing base while the lemon and ginger add bright citrus notes and a touch of natural warmth. Together, they create a crisp, refreshing iced tea that tastes like summer in a glass.
Adding just better.® allulose provides gentle sweetness, while just better.® prebiotic fiber dissolves completely into the tea, making it an easy way to close the fiber gap in your day.
