Cascadia Breakfast tastes like coffee came over for a cup of tea and decided to stay! A smooth, rich, and less-jittery alternative to coffee combining malty and lightly fruity black teas with the earthy robustness of coffee and Chinese puerh, finished with nutty, chocolaty notes of chicory and carob. Our careful infusion of tea with whole coffee beans ensures that the tea's flavor still shines through. While we aren't the first to think of it, we might be the first to perfect it. No grinding necessary!

Brewing Instructions
8 oz Cup
- Scoop a heaping teaspoon of tea into infuser.
- Heat water to 200° F (just before boiling).
- Pour 8 oz. of water over tea leaves.
- Steep tea for 3-5 minutes.
- Remove infuser and enjoy tea.
Potful
Simply add to your infuser one heaping teaspoon of leaf per 8 oz. of water and place it in your pot, then add the appropriate amount of 200° F water and let it steep for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the infuser and enjoy.
Brewing Iced Tea
Our opinion is that a cooled concentrate works best, as regular-strength brew tends to become watery as the ice melts. So, use the above leaf quantities, but half the water, allow it to cool, then pour it over ice and enjoy! The brew will dilute down to proper strength as the ice melts.
