Serving Guide

- Per Serving: Measure one teaspoon (approx. 2.5g) per 250ml cup.

Health Benefits
- Metabolic Support: The polyphenolic compounds inherent in Chinese green tea, specifically catechins like EGCG, are extensively documented in scientific literature. Clinical data suggests these compounds can assist in metabolic regulation and support lipid oxidation, making this a functional component for any health-focused catering menu.[1]
- Cognitive Function: This blend offers a synergistic combination of naturally occurring L-theanine and a low dose of caffeine. Research into this pairing consistently demonstrates improved alertness and attentional focus without the overstimulation common in high-caffeine beverages.[2]
- Bioactive Compounds: The inclusion of natural lemon and lime peel provides a valuable source of bioactive compounds, particularly flavonoids. Scientific reviews highlight the role of these citrus-derived compounds in supporting cellular health and contributing to overall antioxidant intake.[3]

Limona Breeze Green Tea FAQs
Yes. The Sencha-style base and natural citrus notes are highly effective for cold brew infusions, creating a smooth, refreshing product ideal for high-volume commercial service.
To maintain the integrity of the flavour profile, particularly the volatile citrus aromas, we recommend storing the tea in airtight, opaque containers in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and strong odours.
The base tea has a natural honey-like sweetness, but its pleasing astringency means it integrates very well with simple syrups or honey, making it a versatile base for signature commercial beverages without losing its core character.
