Cascara Fruit Tea
Cascara Fruit Tea
Cáscara (Spanish for “husk” or “shell”) is the outer shell of the coffee cherry.
Discover the vibrant taste of cascara, the dried fruit of the coffee cherry. Lightly sweet, with notes of cherry, golden raisin and lemon. It’s a refreshing alternative to traditional teas or your daily brew. This tea not only elevates your senses but also supports sustainability by reducing coffee cherry waste – a win-win for flavor and the planet. Brew hot or cold for a naturally caffeine-boosted experience. Cáscara is packed with antioxidants and has relatively low caffeine content compared to brewed coffee (roughly 30mg per standard serving).
Cáscara can be used in higher concentrations to make delicious syrups, cocktails, and mocktails!
