The type of melon that most of us are familiar with, and the one that flavors this refreshing tea, is the cantaloupe. This melon, (Latin: Cucumis melo cantalupensis,) is thought to be native to Asia or Persia and is now grown widely in California, Arizona, and Texas. The correct term for the cantaloupe melon however is muskmelon. The prefix musk is derived from the Persian word for perfume. This name was given to the melon because of its sweet fruity fragrance when ripened. The suffix melon comes from the Latin word melopepo meaning “apple-shaped melon.” Cantaloupe melon has a watery flesh and a delicately sweet flavor. The fruit itself is very refreshing, as is this tea. The flavor profile of the melon blends beautifully with our Ceylon tea. A splash of milk will greatly compliment the flavor of the tea when served hot, and a dash of sugar will make this one a summer favorite when served over ice. What type of tea do we use, how do we flavor the tea and why do we use natural flavors?
