Grapefruit Quince elevates everyday replenishment with juicy hibiscus, aromatic yuzu and succulent quince in the perfect harmony of tangy and bittersweet effervescence. We were inspired by traditional Korean herb teas that feature quince to soothe and support easy breathing. Hibiscus is enjoyed throughout the tropics for refreshing, cooling energy and is widely regarded to help lower blood pressure, promote arterial health and support metabolism.

Herbalist’s Note
The hard, woody flesh of Quince is astringent from its high content of antioxidant catechins and tannins so it must be slowly simmered to coax out its exquisite fruity sweetness and tropical flowery aroma. Hibiscus and aromatic citrus peels are briefly steeped just prior to the cold crash to add a layer of quenching brightness and succulence. Finally, pink grapefruit and fresh yuzu juice are added after the initial filtration for a pungent, bittersweet citrus bite and a complex flowery aromatic finish.
