Teapigs Spiced Winter Red, 15 Tea Bags 37.5g
A mulled-wine kind of cup without the wine or the caffeine: cinnamon and clove laid over an 86 percent rooibos base, so it stays naturally sweet and can be drunk late in the evening when an actual spiced black would keep you up. The orange is real but a supporting act, do not expect it to lead, and this is unapologetically a December drink rather than an all-year staple. On a cold night by the fire, though, it earns its place.
Teapigs Spiced Winter Red, in brief.
Teapigs Spiced Winter Red is the festive one in the Teapigs range, a caffeine-free rooibos base layered with cinnamon, cloves and orange peel for a warming winter cup. It is unmistakably a seasonal blend, bold and Christmassy rather than an all-year daily tea, and it is whole-ingredient in the pyramid temple rather than dusty fragments, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection as a festive choice.
Preparation: a 250ml mug, one pyramid of Spiced Winter Red, water at 95 to 100 degrees, and four to five minutes of patience. The whole-leaf pyramid lets the rooibos and spices open fully for a proper cafe-grade cup at home. Being caffeine-free it is fine in the evening, and it pairs especially well with Christmas pudding or a slice of fruitcake.
Curator notes: rated four point six out of five, Spiced Winter Red is the seasonal warmer of the Teapigs range. The packaging information for Spiced Winter Red is best read on the current UK pack.
Ingredients and dietary: Built on rooibos, so naturally caffeine free, with cinnamon, cloves and orange peel bringing the festive spice.

The Story Behind the Teapigs Brand
Teapigs exists because Nick and Louise wanted people drinking real tea again; they founded it in London in two thousand and six.- Tea Temple Innovation: Paper bags full of dust were the trouble, which led the pair to pioneer the Teapigs brand tea temple to give whole leaves and whole spices room to infuse properly.
- Holiday Heritage: Spiced Winter Red was created to offer a healthy alcohol free way to enjoy the classic flavours of the holiday market.
- Business for Good: Being a certified B Corp, Teapigs gives its help to the Point Foundation in Rwanda, whose beneficiaries are vulnerable tea communities and orphans.
