Summer tea blends for warm days and cool glasses
When the temperature climbs, tea changes. Heavy malts and smoky blacks give way to bright fruit, crisp herbs and floral lifts that work just as well over ice as they do hot. This collection gathers our loosest, breeziest blends—the ones that cold-brew overnight without a fuss and taste like the best bits of a market fruit stall.
You will find proper summer flavours here. Honeyed Peach brings stone-fruit sweetness, Bramble tastes of deep berry character, and Strawberry Rhubarb captures the nostalgic flavour of summer desserts. Raspberry Lemon Verbena adds citrus snap, Mango Fire brings gentle warmth beneath the tropical notes, and Lychee & Jasmine Green offers delicate floral perfume with a light caffeine lift.
Most of this range is caffeine-free herbal, so you can sip all afternoon without clock-watching. The exception is the Lychee & Jasmine Green, which carries a gentle green-tea brightness for mornings. All are hand-packed in Yorkshire and dispatch same day if you order by 4pm, Monday to Friday.
How to choose
Hot or iced
Every blend here cold-brews beautifully. Steep in cold water for six to eight hours in the fridge, strain, and you have refreshing iced tea without the bitterness.
Caffeine check
Looking for an all-day sipper? Stick to the herbals. If you want a gentle morning lift, Lychee & Jasmine Green is your one caffeinated option in this set.
Fruit forward or floral
Strawberry Kiwi and Fruit Full lean juicy and sweet. For something lighter and more aromatic, Rainbow Tea or Calming Tulsi offer softer, more subtle profiles.

Cold Brew Tea: How to Make Smooth Iced Tea OvernightCan I make iced tea with loose leaf summer blends?
Absolutely. Cold-brew by adding leaves to cold water and refrigerating for six to eight hours. Strain before serving. It produces a smoother, less bitter result than hot-brewing then chilling.
How much loose leaf tea do I need for a jug of iced tea?
A good starting point is one teaspoon per 250ml of water. For a one-litre jug, use four teaspoons. Adjust to taste after your first batch.
Are these summer teas caffeine-free?
Most are. The majority of blends here are herbal infusions with no caffeine. The exception is Lychee & Jasmine Green, which contains green tea and a moderate caffeine level.
Do fruit teas taste sweet without sugar?
They taste fruity rather than sugary. Natural dried fruit pieces and hibiscus give the impression of sweetness, but there is no added sugar. You can sweeten if you like.
What is the best way to store loose leaf tea in warm weather?
Keep it in an airtight container, away from direct sunlight, heat and strong smells. A cupboard is better than a sunny worktop. Stored well, loose leaf tea stays fresh for a long time.
