Sprankel is a caffeine-free blend of green rooibos, sweet apple and wild berries, with a fresh lemon note. Brewed hot, it is a soft, fruity cup you can drink until late in the evening — there is no caffeine in it. In summer you brew exactly the same blend cold, as a cold brew. The same leaves, two seasons.
How it tastes
Light and fruity: fresh citrus up front, underneath raspberry and blackcurrant, and a gentle sweetness of apple. Round and without bitterness — green rooibos never turns sharp, however long you let it steep. The lemon and strawberry notes come from natural flavourings; raspberry and blackcurrant are in there as real fruit.
About the colour
The base is green rooibos with apple, so the cup turns pale golden yellow — not red and not pink. The berries are in the taste, not in the colour.
When to brew it
Mid-afternoon, when you fancy something fruity without sugar. After dinner. And late in the evening — there is no caffeine in it, and that is what this blend was made for.
How to brew
Hot: 1½–2 teaspoons per cup, water at 100 °C, 7–10 minutes. The longer, the fuller the taste.
