Earl Grey combines an antioxidant-rich black tea with essential oil of bergamot, pressed from Italian citrus fruits. A touch of French lavender adds a distinctively Parisian flare. This smooth, soothing blend is the perfect accompaniment to afternoon tea, and pairs beautifully with scones and cakes. Lavender is used in herbalism to treat anxiety, depression, bloating, nerve and joint pain.

Brewing Instructions
General Guide:
Add tea leaves to a teapot, fill-your-own tea bag or infuser basket.
Use 1 to 3 teaspoons (1 tablespoon) of leaves per cup (8 oz) of water. Adjust to taste.
Bring fresh, cold water to a rolling boil, allow it to cool slightly, then pour water over tea leaves and cover.
Infuse (steep) leaves between 2-5 minutes; 3½ minutes is a good average that works well for most tea types. Do not over steep or tea may become bitter. If you prefer strong tea, do not over steep; simply use more leaves.
Remove bag or infuser from water or strain leaves. Enjoy!
Water Quality: Tea is only as good as the water used to prepare it. Avoid distilled or unfiltered tap water, which can limit tea’s flavor. Bottled spring water or filtered tap water is ideal.
Water Temperature: Most teas taste best when prepared with water around 195˚F (just below boiling) however, some teas require a lower temperature or they may become bitter.

I love love love this blend and flavor! I used to drink the plain Earl Grey, but the lavender really makes the morning cup so special and cozy. I have been drinking it for months and it is my favorite part of the morning.
