Apples have been grown across Europe and Central Asia for thousands of years, and dried apple pieces are the backbone of countless fruit tea blends. They brew a naturally sweet, mellow cup with a gentle orchard aroma and give the infusion a fuller body. Apple pairs with almost anything: cinnamon, ginger, berries, citrus, hibiscus, rooibos and black tea. Because the pieces hold their flavor well, apple blends are lovely both piping hot in winter and poured over ice in summer.

Beetroot is the deep red root of the beet plant, grown across Europe and North America and a staple of Eastern European kitchens. Dried beetroot pieces give an earthy, gently sweet flavor and turn the infusion a vivid ruby or magenta color. They are used in herbal and fruit blends to deepen color and add body, pairing well with hibiscus, berries, apple, ginger and cinnamon. Beetroot powder is also popular in colorful lattes whisked with warm milk.

Strawberries are the sweet, juicy red fruit of a low garden plant, grown and loved around the world. Dried strawberry pieces add a classic, jammy berry flavor and a sweet, summery aroma with a gentle tang. They are a favorite in fruit blends and pair beautifully with green tea, white tea, black tea and rooibos, as well as with vanilla, rhubarb, kiwi and cream flavors. Strawberry blends are delightful iced, or hot with a splash of milk for a strawberries-and-cream cup.
