LCurator note · Teapigs
Most mint-green teas are built on harsh gunpowder leaf, which is why they so often taste bitter under the mint. This uses a Chunmee base instead, naturally sweeter and nuttier, so the peppermint sits on something smooth rather than fighting it. It is billed as Moroccan-inspired but carries no added sugar, so expect a clean, fresh cup rather than the sweet café version unless you add honey yourself. One of the more drinkable everyday mint-greens, and very good over ice.

About this tea

Teapigs Green Tea with Mint, in brief.

Teapigs Green Tea with Mint pairs a whole-leaf Chinese Chunmee green with pure peppermint in the pyramid temple, rather than the harsh gunpowder green and dusty fragments cheaper mint-greens lean on. That choice of base is the point: it stays smooth and clean under the mint instead of bitter, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection.

Preparation: the rule that matters with any green. Drop one pyramid into a 250ml mug at 80 to 85 degrees, not boiling, and steep three minutes. Boiling water turns the green bitter behind the mint. It is lovely hot or iced, and pairs especially well with baklava.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Teapigs Green Tea with Mint is a more refined, fuller flavoured staple than the standard green tea boxes on grocery store shelves. Where basic blends lean on harsh Gunpowder tea or dusty fragments, this one combines whole Chunmee leaves with pure peppermint, and the result is a smooth, refreshing cup. The tea temples keep it simple, so it is as easy to make in your kitchen as it is in the office when the afternoon drags. Clean, fresh and with no sugar, this Moroccan inspired mint green tea pairs nicely with a light lunch or as a refreshing iced summer cooler. Drink it slowly at home or keep a box at work for busy days; either way you get a zesty, minty cup that carries the Teapigs standard on into 2026.

The Story Behind the Teapigs Brand

Nick and Louise started Teapigs in London in 2006, wanting to get people back to drinking tea made from real leaves.
  • Tea Temple Innovation: Frustrated by paper bags filled with floor sweepings they pioneered the Teapigs brand tea temple, a roomy mesh pyramid where whole leaves open out properly.
  • Chunmee Heritage: Picking Chunmee instead of the usual Gunpowder green gives a gentler, more refined take on Moroccan mint tea.
  • Business for Good: As a certified B Corp Teapigs prioritizes social goals by supporting vulnerable tea communities and orphans in Rwanda.

Teapigs Commitment To The Planet

Teapigs have long championed more sustainable tea, and they want every part of this Green Tea with Mint pack to sit lightly on the environment.

Side by side

How does it compare

vs Twinings Mint GreenWhile Twinings uses finely cut leaves Teapigs uses whole Chunmee leaves for a fuller fresher taste without bitterness.
vs Pukka Mint MatchaPukka is more vegetal and powder focused whereas Teapigs provides a traditional Moroccan clear liquor with a sweet nutty finish.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperature80°C, best judged with a thermometer or a kettle that has temperature settings; how quickly boiled water drops depends on the amount and on the kettle. Water at a full 100°C boil damages the amino acids that keep this Chunmee smooth and sweet, and the mint ends up sitting on bitterness.
MeasureOne temple per 200ml of water, about what an everyday mug holds. For loose leaf, use one heaped teaspoon.
Steep2 to 3 minutes; beyond that the Chunmee starts tasting bitter. Remove the bag promptly; do not squeeze.
ServiceSkip the milk and sugar; the Chunmee's natural sweet, grassy notes do the job without help. A thin slice of lemon gives it extra brightness, if that appeals.
Cold brewA glass jug, one temple and 250ml of cold water go into the fridge together for 4 to 8 hours. Cold water pulls out the sweeter compounds ahead of the rest, so on a hot day this is the smoothest way to drink a mint green.
Iced versionFor iced tea, brew it double strength: 2 minutes, one temple, only 100ml of water at 80°C. Let that cool, then pour it onto ice and loosen it with cold water.
Best withSashimi, sushi, plain steamed rice dishes, dark chocolate or almond cake.
Safety and purity

What’s in it, what to know

CaffeineYes, from the green tea; no milligram figure is given for this blend.
Ingredients and dietary suitabilityTeapigs may revise the blend and its allergy advice, so follow the box you receive.
CaffeineYes, from the green tea; no milligram figure is given for this blend.
Nutrient NotePeppermint oil is 30 to 50% menthol and also carries rosmarinic acid; the menthol is why the cup feels cool in the mouth.
Shelf LifeThe date stamped on the box is a best before, not a use by; the tea stays safe after it but gradually loses its aroma. Tuck the temples into an airtight tin, then into a cool, dry cupboard the sun never reaches.
Formulations change; the current UK pack is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.
