Mint Humbug Tea, 15 Silky Tea Bags, 37.5g

Inspired by the classic English ‘Humbug’ sweet, a Fortnum’s favourite, school tuck-box staple and adventurers expedition essential since the 19th century, this refreshingly minty blend is as bracing as the air atop Everest.

This festive infusion is a blend of peppermint, spearmint, liquorice root and toffee flavouring. The refreshing liquorice and toffee add a sweetness to the icy mint notes to create a marvellously Christmassy brew.

Using freshly drawn water at 100 degrees, and one silky bag per person, brew for 3-5 minutes. Best served without milk.
