 en-US Preparing Tea: A Simple but Demanding Art 13/06/2025 Tea is much more than just a beverage. It's a ritual, a suspended moment, a sensory journey with every sip. The most consumed drink in the world after water, it transcends cultures and traditions, from the Indian plains to English parlors, from Japanese ceremonies to Moroccan tea breaks.

We offer you a range of organic and fair trade teas that cultivate both tradition and creativity. Healthy and delicious blends that are good for both your health and the planet, preserving tomorrow’s treasures.

However, choosing a prestigious tea alone is not enough to ensure a successful tasting experience. Even the noblest vintage can disappoint if poorly prepared. Conversely, a more modest tea can reveal its full finesse if a few essential rules are followed. Some speak of the “art of tea,” but this know-how is not reserved for an elite: it relies above all on four fundamental elements.

The 4 Key Elements to Brewing Great Tea

1. Choosing the Right Water

Tea is primarily… water. And not just any kind. Water that is too hard or strongly flavored (chlorine, iron, etc.) will mask the aromatic subtleties of the tea. Ideally, it should be pure, tasteless, and odorless.

  • To avoid: highly mineralized waters or water that has been boiled multiple times.
  • To favor: filtered water or neutral mineral water. Filtered tap water is often an economical and effective option.

2. Choosing the Right Teapot

The teapot is not just a container. It influences the temperature, the brewing time, and sometimes even the taste.

  • Basic rule: reserve your teapot exclusively for brewing tea. Avoid saucepans or multi-use utensils.
  • Maintenance: rinse with clear water, no soap or brush. The inner patina – known as "seasoning" – is valuable.
  • Types of teapots: Enameled Japanese cast iron: perfect for green teas, excellent heat retention. Yixing clay: ideal for retaining aromas (one teapot per tea type). Glass, porcelain, silver, or pewter: choose according to your preference and tea style.

Need a teapot?

3. Respecting Infusion Time and Temperature

Each tea has its own requirements. The most common mistakes? Water that's too hot or steeping too long.

Some practical guidelines:

Type of TeaTemperatureSteeping Time
Japanese Green Tea 70°C 2 min
Chinese Green Tea 70-80°C 3 min
Black Tea (broken leaves) 90°C 3 min
Black Tea (whole leaves) 90°C 5 min
Flavored Black Tea 90°C 4 min
Oolong 90°C 7 min
White Tea 75-80°C 10 min

All of these instructions are listed on the back of our tea packages, so you can easily find your way without wracking your brain!

Discover our teas and infusions

Best Practices:

  • Scald the teapot before brewing.
  • Moisten the leaves briefly while the water is heating.
  • Use about 2 to 2.5 g of tea per 25 to 30 cl cup (roughly one heaping teaspoon for whole leaves).
  • Remove the leaves or filter at the end of the steeping time to avoid bitterness.

4. Choosing the Right Filter

A good-quality filter allows the leaves to fully open and the infusion to reveal its full potential.

Preferred: Large built-in teapot filters. Unbleached paper filters: biodegradable and hygienic. Cotton filters ("socks"): perfect for large leaves or herbal infusions.

Bonus: A Few Practical Tips

How to Remove Caffeine from Tea?

Want to enjoy tea without the effects of caffeine? It’s possible to partially "decaffeinate" it at home:

  • Make a very short first infusion (30 seconds to 1 minute), then discard the water.
  • Then brew as usual.
  • This method removes a good amount of caffeine while preserving the flavors.

Should You Add Sugar, Milk, or Lemon?

Traditionally, purists swear by plain tea, with no additions. But every culture has its own customs:

  • English and Indian people add milk.
  • Moroccans heavily sweeten mint green tea.
  • Tibetans add yak butter!

In the end, it’s a matter of taste. Tea is universal precisely because it adapts to everyone’s traditions and preferences.

Conclusion

Tea is demanding, but it rewards those who give it attention and care. No need for fancy equipment or expert training: by simply respecting the four pillars of preparation – water, teapot, time, and filter – you’ll discover the full richness and subtlety of this ancient beverage.

So, kettle on!

Aronia berries, Cindy, are part of the superfood category due to their numerous health benefits. To do this, we decided to prepare them as smoothies. This recipe will be ideal in the morning to stock up on energy or as an afternoon snack.

What are aronia berries?

These little berries are real treasures of antioxidants straight from North America. They are one of the highly pigmented fruits that are very rich in antioxidants, also called anthocyanins. They are also found in blackberries, blueberries and even cherries, but their content is much higher in aronia berries. These pigments therefore have excellent anti-inflammatory properties. These berries also contain substances favorable to the cardiovascular system.

Ingredients for the recipe:

  • 1 banana
  • 1 handful of dried aronia berries
  • 20 cl of milk or vegetable milk
  • 1 glass of frozen red fruits

You can use whatever milk suits you and you can even make your own plant-based milk .

Steps :

  • First, immerse the aronia berries in water for 30 minutes to rehydrate them (they will mix more easily).
  • Place all the ingredients in the blender and mix until the mixture is smooth.
  • Your smoothie is ready to enjoy.

If you find your smoothie too thick, you can add milk.

Golden milk, also known as "golden milk" or "golden latte" in English, is a warm beverage originating from traditional Indian medicine: Ayurveda. This preparation, made with turmeric, ginger, and pepper, is traditionally prepared with coconut milk. Its golden yellow color comes from the presence of turmeric, the main ingredient in this drink.

Indeed, golden milk is mainly appreciated for its health benefits, such as boosting the immune system, improving digestion, and reducing inflammation.

This week, we invite you to prepare golden milk together with our organic and fair preparation. This all-in-one preparation makes this recipe quick and so delicious. You can add a bit of coconut sugar to make it even more indulgent.

  • Simmer for 2 minutes over low heat.

]]> Homemade almond milk recipe 08/09/2023

In Brief

  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Cost: Economical
  • Servings: 1 liter

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Blender
  • Fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth
  • Vegetable milk filter
  • Funnel
  • Glass bottle

Time

  • Preparation: 5 to 10 minutes

If you're a fan of plant-based beverages, then this recipe is perfect for you. Plant-based drinks are a healthy and tasty alternative to cow's milk. However, store-bought versions can be expensive and sometimes contain additives. Almond milk is low in calories (about 40 Kcal per 100 ml), making it a great choice for those watching their waistline.

Making your own plant-based milk allows you to control the ingredients you consume, and it's also cost-effective and environmentally friendly. You reduce waste associated with commercial product packaging. Moreover, you can customize this recipe with other nuts (such as hazelnuts, walnuts, oats, soy, etc.) and even create blends.

In addition to making your almond milk, you'll get a delicious and nutritious byproduct: almond pulp, or "okara," which can be used in various recipes to reduce food waste. We've decided to turn it into soft and moist cookies.

But let's start by making our delicious homemade almond milk!

We use the term "almond milk," but it's a linguistic convention. In fact, the word "milk" is strictly used for animal-derived products.

essence-box-separator_1.png

Ingredients for the Recipe:

  • 100 grams of almonds
  • 1 liter of water

You can adjust the quantity of almonds to achieve the desired creaminess of your milk.

Steps:

  • The day before, soak the almonds in water to make them more digestible and easier to blend.
  • Discard the soaking water and place the almonds in the blender.
  • Add the water and blend.
  • Place the fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth over the mixing bowl and position the vegetable milk filter in the strainer.
  • Pour the liquid through the strainer and squeeze it well with your hands to extract all the liquid.
  • Fill the glass bottle with your plant-based milk using the funnel.
  • Almond milk can be refrigerated and stored for 3 to 4 days.

If desired, you can add a sweetener (agave syrup, vanilla extract) or chocolate or a superfood.

Cake Pops, or Pop Cakes, are small balls of cake coated in chocolate and planted on a lollipop stick. Moreover, the word "Cake Pop" means "lollipop cake", it is the contraction of cake and lollipop . The Pop Cake is made from a cake base (muffin, pound cake, brownie) that is mixed with a binder (mascarpone, spread, cream cheese, etc.). This mixture is then rolled into small balls that are covered with melted chocolate and then decorated with colored vermicelli, crushed almonds or sugar pearls. The Pop Cake recipe is very popular thanks to its playful, colorful and infinitely customizable aspect. Cake Pops will be particularly appreciated during baptisms, birthday parties or baby showers.

The cake pop can also be savory for an aperitif (with tuna, pizza style, etc.).

A little history

The "Cake Pop" recipe is quite recent, since it dates from the 2000s. It is the American Angie Dudley , better known as "Bakerella", who will share for the first time her technique for making cupcakes in the shape of balls and planted on a lollipop stick. Quickly, these little treats become very popular thanks to their too cute appearance and their delicious taste.

Originally, "Cake Balls" were cakes made from leftover cakes to avoid waste. They are then mixed with icing and shaped into small balls then covered in melted chocolate. Unlike Cake Pops, Cake Balls are not mounted on a stick.

essence-box-separator_1.png

Ingredients for the recipe:

  • 300 grams of cake
  • 200 grams of mascarpone
  • 150 grams of dark pastry chocolate
  • 150 grams of white pastry chocolate
  • A little coconut oil
  • Honey Sesame Almonds

For this Pop Cake recipe, we made a classic cake. We put the link to the recipe here. You can also use leftover four quarters, for example, or biscuits such as small butter.

Steps :

  • Mix the cake and add the mascarpone.
  • Mix well until obtaining a homogeneous preparation.
  • Form small balls with your hands and put them in the freezer for a few minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the two kinds of chocolate in a bain-marie, adding a little coconut oil to make it more fluid and creamy.
  • Once the balls have hardened, plant the stick all the way to the center and cover them in the melted chocolate (you can dip your stick in the chocolate before planting it in your cake ball, this will allow it to stick well) .
  • Decorate the balls with honey and crushed sesame almonds or mix the two chocolates.
  • Place in the fridge to set the chocolate.
  • Enjoy these delicious Cake Pops.
  • Store the balls in the fridge.

Let your imagination run wild when decorating Cake Pops. You can use what you have in your cupboards.
