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.
 
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 Kenya.
 
Purple Tea leaves have more antioxidants than any other tea leaf! The leaves have anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer properties and reduce cholesterol, boost cognitive function and prevent colds and flus. And because of how this tea is produced, it has half the caffeine of green tea.
