LCurator note · Twinings

Read it the right way round: this is 80 percent peppermint with strawberry as a twist, not a fruit tea, so the cooling menthol leads and the berry rides on top as a sweet, slightly playful lift. The curveball is a whisper of black pepper, which adds a faint warm tingle to the finish; some find it clever and intriguing, others a bit odd. Caffeine-free and best after dinner; an adventurous take on a mint cup rather than a safe one, so try it knowing it is meant to surprise you.

About this tea

Twinings Peppermint and Strawberry, in brief.

Twinings Peppermint and Strawberry is a caffeine-free herbal that pairs peppermint leaf with hibiscus, strawberry pieces and natural fruit flavouring, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection as the unusual mint-fruit hybrid alternative to a straight peppermint or a straight strawberry herbal cup. In the cup: cool peppermint up front, a soft strawberry middle and a clean minty fruit finish that drinks well hot or iced.

The peppermint leaf does the cooling structural work, giving the cup its familiar fresh menthol lift, while the hibiscus and strawberry pieces add the rosy colour and the soft fruit sweetness underneath. The strawberry is the second voice, gentle rather than candy-sweet, and Twinings have built the recipe so the mint and the fruit balance properly rather than the mint flattening the berry or the berry tipping syrupy. The pyramid format gives the leaf and fruit pieces room to open during the brew, which keeps the cup cleaner tasting than the cheap square-bag supermarket equivalents.

Caffeine status: naturally caffeine free, which makes it fine at night as well as in the day. Taste profile: cool peppermint up front balanced by a soft strawberry middle and a clean minty finish. What it is: a Twinings all-natural herbal infusion combining peppermint leaf with hibiscus and strawberry, in the same family as the Pukka Peppermint and Licorice and Yogi Peppermint.

Curator notes: this tasting profile is ours: we reviewed the pack format and the brand spec sheet, then brewed to the recommended steep and water temperature to see if the notes held up. The Q and A tab below goes further into storage, freshness and brewing temperatures for the strawberry mint bags.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up

Twinings Peppermint and Strawberry is a mint tea with strawberry in it, for anyone who finds standard mint teas a little plain. Where standard peppermint infusions keep to one note, this blend adds strawberry and black peppercorns for a flavour with more going on. The bags are plain and simple, so that approachable mint and strawberry flavour is easy to make at home. For a cool, very British treat, this minty strawberry mint tea pairs nicely with a summer afternoon garden break or as a refreshing post meal after dinner cup. Slow evening or hectic day, this blend delivers a cool, zesty cup, true to the Twinings tradition of quality.

The Story Behind the Twinings Tea Brand

The strawberry mint in your cup comes from Twinings, which started up in seventeen hundred and six, the year Thomas Twining first sold tea on London's Strand, and which is a global name in tea culture today.

Heritage of Innovation: The Twinings tea brand was one of the first to specialise in tea and continues to lead with modern infusions that combine traditional leaves with bold spices.
Expert Blending: With over three centuries of experience Twinings uses premium sourcing to ensure natural profiles without the artificial aftertaste found in lower grade herbal teas.
Sourced With Care: The Twinings global programme protects biodiversity and works at bettering the lives of the people in its supply chain, with a long term future for tea farming as the aim.

Twinings Commitment To The Planet

Sustainable tea production is where Twinings claims to be a pioneer, and the company says each component here, mint included, respects the environment.

Packaging: Strawberry mint bags and the carton can each have a different disposal route, so use the pack's instructions and your local authority's.

Side by side

How does it compare

vs Twinings Pure PeppermintPure peppermint is refreshing and sharp, whereas this blend adds juicy fruit and a peppery kick that suits adult palates better.

vs Pukka Mint RefreshPukka uses fennel and rose for a floral profile whereas Twinings focuses on the bold pairing of garden strawberries and black pepper for a punchier experience.

vs Supermarket Mint BlendsMany budget brands use artificial flavourings. Twinings ensures a natural taste through premium peppermint leaves and authentic fruit essences.

Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperatureFull 100°C boiling water is needed, as the menthol will not release without proper heat.

MeasureUse one bag in each 200ml of freshly boiled water.

SteepFour to five minutes with a cover on; the cover keeps the menthol rich steam in the cup.

ServiceDrink unsweetened; the natural sweetness is plenty. A slice of lemon adds brightness.

Iced versionBrew two bags strong in 200ml, cool, then pour over ice with some fresh mint and lime juice squeezed in.

Caffeine noteCaffeine free by nature, so any time of day is fine, and it is a traditional end of meal drink.

Best withIt goes with Moroccan pastries or dark chocolate, and it is welcome after a heavy or spicy meal.

Safety and purity

What’s in it, what to know

Ingredients and dietary suitabilityThe UK pack you receive carries the up to date recipe and allergen wording, which can change.

CaffeineCaffeine free by nature, and a good cup for after dinner.

Nutrient NoteMenthol makes up 30 to 50% of peppermint's essential oil, and it is the menthol that gives the cooling mouthfeel.

Shelf LifeThe pack gives a best before date; after it the bags are still safe, though the menthol aroma weakens. Because mint oils are volatile, store the bags in an airtight container, away from direct sunlight, somewhere cool and dry.

Formulations change; the current UK pack is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.
