Pukka Organic Peppermint and Licorice, 20 Tea Bags 30g
Worth knowing how this differs from the Teapigs version, which is liquorice-dominant: Pukka flips the balance to 60 percent peppermint, 40 percent liquorice, so here crisp Egyptian mint leads and the root sweetens behind it rather than taking over. That makes it the friendlier of the two if you want the natural sweetness without being clobbered by aniseed, though 40 percent liquorice is still plenty, so it is not for people who actively dislike it. Organic, clean and silky after a rich meal; a sugar-free pudding substitute that still tastes mostly of mint.
Pukka Organic Peppermint and Licorice, in brief.
Pukka Organic Peppermint and Licorice is a caffeine-free organic blend of peppermint and liquorice root, the liquorice doing the sweetening so it is naturally sweet with no added sugar. It is the organic version of the liquorice-mint cup we stock, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection for the cup, not the digestive wording.
