“Morning, Sleepyhead”—you were talking in your sleep again. Something about a ship? Or a sheep? I wasn’t really listening. I was busy making this for you!
It’s a little cup of paradise. The base is a beautiful Kenyan purple tea, the kind that glows when the light hits it just right, like the ocean at dusk. I also added brown sugar because it captures the warmth of the sand when it’s been kissed by the sun all day, and passionfruit because... well, because it's bright, and golden, and a little intense—like me. Lastly, the papaya is there for balance. It’s sweet and gentle and safe, like an eternal island sunrise…
Anyways, it’s truly my island captured in a cup, meant for those who are looking to greet the day with open eyes and an easy heart. Take a sip, take some time, and if you end up staying for one more cup…I’ll be here.

Another winner from the Epic collaboration! This tea brews up into a fragrant teal/green tea with sweet papaya and gentle floral notes that only needs a touch of honey to sweeten it. As it cools, it becomes a beautiful amber color and the papaya notes become bolder and mask the floral notes the tea initially brews with. If you want to use this tea in a blend then I recommend either leaning into other fruit white teas (hot with a splash of milk or creamer) or floral black teas (iced with honey).

I love fruit teas, I absolutely adore them. And how the drink has a beautiful teal colour (most likely from the papaya and passion fruit!) is stunning. I don't really like lemons but if you were to add lemons to it, it would become a pretty purple colour!
To be honest I ordered this tea not knowing what to expect. I had already tried the other three flavors that were created for Epic the Musical and I was a big fan of Quick Thought by Athena but this one far surpasses it. It was so delicious and tropical I am definitely going to be purchasing at least three more bags coming soon.
