Turkish Black Mulberry Tea by Herb and Oil 200g
Not shipped to: United States
Quick Overview
Product Details
The black mulberry tea of Turkish tea houses
Walk past a tea house in Bursa or Istanbul in winter and you will see small glasses of a deep red tea next to the black tea: karadut cayi, black mulberry tea. Sweet, slightly tart, with the colour of the ripe fruit, it is the drink for a cold afternoon, for guests, and for anyone who wants a warm cup without caffeine. Herb and Oil makes it in Turkey, and this 200 g pack is the sealed, original version of what the bazaar shops sell by the scoop.
Many English listings call it blackberry tea; the fruit on the pack is the black mulberry (Morus nigra), the mulberry-tree fruit grown across Turkey. Either name, same cup.
How to prepare it
| Serving | Tea | Water | Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hot cup | 1 teaspoon | 150-200 ml boiling | 5-7 minutes |
| Iced glass | 1 teaspoon | 100 ml boiling, then ice and cold water | Cool before the ice |
| Pot for guests | 4 teaspoons | 700 ml boiling | 5-7 minutes, stir once |
A pack gives about 40 cups. Serve it in a small glass, with a biscuit or a piece of lokum, and nothing added: the cup is already sweet.
When to drink it
With no caffeine, it is the tea for the hours black tea does not suit: after dinner, before bed, or on an afternoon when you want warmth without a lift. In summer it goes over ice. Families in Turkey keep a jar for guests, because the colour alone makes the glass feel like an occasion.
Serving ideas
- Winter cup: a cinnamon stick in the glass while it steeps.
- Summer glass: iced, with mint and lemon.
- Mixed pot: half black mulberry, half pomegranate tea for a deeper red and a rounder taste.
