An instant, lemony classic. We've added zingy lemon oil and chunky peel to the classic duo of Assam and Ceylon. Strong, refreshing, and great with milk if that's how you like it.
Perky, Bright
Try it with a thick, fluffy slice of Madeira cake.

100° Boiling Water
3-5 Minutes
400ml is perfect for 5g of loose leaf tea. If you're using a tea bag, 300ml is bang on. Brewing this one is all about finding just how you like it. Try brewing for 3-4 minutes black, or 4-5 minutes with milk.

Brewing Tip

Your tea will start tasting bitter if it’s left to brew for too long so if you fancy a stronger cup, add some more tea leaves.

Assam & Ceylon Black Tea, Lemon Peel (4%), Lemon Oil (3%)

Origins

Hello Twisted Breakfast. A classic cup of tea, but with go faster stripes. Rolled leaves and a strong, punchy Breakfast Tea taste, but with delectable twists from flavours that pair perfectly. It's as ubiquitous as ice and a slice, this 'tea with lemon' thing. Every time we launched a Tasting Club blend with a whiff of citrus, it sold out and cries of 'more!' were heard for months on end afterwards. So here it is. With a snifter of citrus, we've taken a perfectly strong breakfast tea made it just that bit sunnier.

    Morning twist

    It's one I have first thing in the morning, I can't drink it later on as I don't like it as much as the normal matly breakfast I can drink all day long but I find it refreshing to have when I wake up.

    Is it different enough?

    Previously I've always bought Earl Grey. When placing my last order I saw this, read the write-up, thought it looked worth a try.

    Well, I've tried it for a while aaaaand . . . . . it's OK. And that's the main problem; it's only OK. It's not sufficiently different from EG to make me make a permanent switch.

    Hey Steve,

    Thank you for the feedback. This blend is based on our English Breakfast so wont have the same punch as an Earl Grey. Have you tried our new Vanilla Earl Grey yet? If you love Earl Grey, you'll really love this one.

    So and so - could be stronger

    Not super strong in flavour - you’d be better off with the proper english brew they have then add a slice of lemon! But suitable if you are lazy and just want the job done quickly.

    Thanks for giving our Lemon Twisted Breakfast Tea a try Joyce! Even though it wasn't quite as lemony as you would like it do be, we do appreciate the honest feedback. It's good to know it still does the job when you need something quick and easy :)
