Soursop makes a gentle, fruity cup that tastes a little like a cross between pineapple and pear, with a soft earthy note from the leaf behind it. Because it is a herbal infusion rather than a Green Tea, you can brew it properly hot and give it a few minutes to bring the fruit out.

There is no caffeine in it, so it is an easy one to reach for in the evening. Makes one mug.
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Dalgety Pure Soursop
- 200ml just-off-boil water (95C)
- 1 220ml mug, warmed
Method
- Give the mug a quick warm with hot water, then empty it.
- Pour 200ml of just-boiled water, at around 95C, straight over the tea bag.
- Cover with a saucer and let it steep for four minutes so the fruit flavour has time to develop.
- Press the bag gently against the mug as you lift it out; this herbal blend has no harsh tannins, so it will not turn bitter.
- Soursop is sweet on its own and caffeine-free, so skip the milk and sugar; it makes a good evening cup.
