What is Purple Tea?

Purple tea is purple because of the natural anthocyanin content in the leaves. Just like in blueberries, cherries, and other red/purple foods, these anthocyanins act as super-antioxidants, and provide many health benefits! Purple Tea leaves are also an excellent source of natural GHG polyphenols, which are known for their fat-burning properties.

All tea comes from the jade green leaves of the tea plant, except for purple tea. Purple tea originates in Kenya, and due to the presence of super-antioxidants called anthocyanins, the organically-grown purple tea leaves are actually purple! Purple tea is made with a similar process to Green tea, but has more antioxidants, less caffeine, and a totally delicious, award-winning taste.

The rolling hills of Kenya is the only place in the world that purple tea grows. Kenya has produced tea since the early 1900’s, but this unique Purple tea was first grown in 2011. Organically grown on small-scale mashamba (farms), every purchase of Purple tea supports tea farming communities in Western Kenya.
