What You Should Know

You’d find this bottle in the refrigerated drinks or organic pantry aisle — a ready-to-drink, unsweetened organic black tea lightly spiced with cardamom. It gives a clean, wholesome, slightly nostalgic vibe (like a brewed cup at home) and reads as a minimalist, health-focused choice. The short ingredient list and industrial brewing/packaging point to light processing (pasteurization, filtration, citric acid as an acidulant) rather than heavy ultra-processing.
