Product Story & Origin
Ancient Fruits Meet Ancient Tea A Cup Rooted in Tradition
Figs are one of humanity's oldest cultivated fruits treasured across ancient Egypt, Greece, and the Mediterranean for thousands of years for their extraordinary sweetness, their rich nutritional profile, and their deeply grounding, earthy quality. Apples have their own ancient heritage: grown across Central Asia and the Middle East for millennia, they carry an unmistakable crisp freshness that feels timeless and comforting in equal measure.
At Palm Beach Teas, we brought these two ancient fruits together with the clean, refreshing character of premium green tea to create Apple and Fig Green Tea a blend that is genuinely unlike anything else in our collection. The crisp, slightly tart sweetness of apple brightens every sip, the deep, honeyed richness of fig adds a unique aromatic depth, and the green tea base provides the clean, antioxidant-rich foundation that ties everything together in perfect harmony.
This is the tea for those who appreciate complexity in their cup without fuss or pretension. It is aromatic, balanced, and deeply satisfying a quiet luxury that rewards attention. Whether you are a seasoned tea drinker discovering a new favorite or a curious newcomer looking for something truly special, Apple and Fig Green Tea will not disappoint. This is premium loose leaf tea at its most thoughtfully crafted.

Pro Tips for Apple and Fig Green Tea
• Brew at 175–185°F never boiling. The delicate green tea and apple notes are fragile and will become flat and bitter at higher temperatures.
• Steep 2–3 minutes. A shorter steep gives a lighter, apple-forward cup. Three minutes brings out more of the fig's honeyed depth.
• Add a thin slice of fresh apple to the cup for a beautiful garnish and extra fresh apple aroma.
• Excellent iced brew double-strength, cool completely, and pour over ice. The fig notes become more pronounced and interesting when cold.
• A drizzle of raw honey perfectly complements the fig's natural sweetness. Try it with a drop of vanilla for a dessert-like variation.
• Re-steep once for a lighter, more delicate second cup with subtle lingering fig notes.
