The aromatic profile of this cranberry lemon infusion
The moment you open the bag, the scent of cranberry and lemon peel rises, fresh and inviting. As it steeps, the liquor takes on a warm golden hue, dotted with rose petals and marigold flowers drifting in the cup.
On the palate, lime essential oil brings a bright, zesty first impression. Cranberry follows with its characteristic tang, softened by apple and grape. Verbena lingers through to a gentle, soothing finish, while coconut brushes the palate with an exotic touch.
The blend is at once lively and rounded, working beautifully both hot and iced. Try it in a cold-brew carafe for a wonderfully thirst-quenching summer drink.
How to prepare this cranberry lemon herbal infusion
The method is simple. Use 12 to 15 g of the blend per litre of water, roughly a heaped tablespoon for a large mug. Bring the water to a full boil (100°C / 212°F), then pour it over the fruit and flowers.
Steep for 7 to 10 minutes depending on how strong you like it. A shorter steep highlights the lemon and verbena freshness; a longer one brings out the roundness of cranberry and apple.
For a cold version, double the amount and steep at room temperature, then strain and chill. Add a few ice cubes and a slice of lemon for an easy, refreshing drink. If you're not sure which blend to choose, our herbal infusion guide will help you find the right match for any mood or moment.
Storage
Blended in our workshop, this infusion keeps best in an airtight tin, away from light, heat and moisture. Stored this way, it will hold all its fruity fragrance for several months. Julien Huot, founder of Thés & Traditions, personally selects every recipe we offer.
