The aromatic profile of our exotic herbal infusion
This blend leans fully into ripe, sun-drenched fruit. Up front, juicy peach and fleshy papaya open the tasting on a round, almost velvety note, reminiscent of fruit picked at peak ripeness.
The heart of the blend rests on pieces of apple and date, which bring a natural sweetness and a rounded, sugary fullness without going overboard. Banana, coated with a touch of coconut and honey, extends this tropical indulgence further.
In the background, lemongrass and ginger trace a fresh, lightly spiced line that balances the whole. A few goji berries, a hint of carrot and a touch of lavender give this blend its finishing signature: a delicate floral note, almost unexpected.
In the cup, the result is a golden liquor with a warm, fragrant aroma, where each sip reveals a new fruit. A true tropical infusion, indulgent without being heavy, fragrant without being overly sweet. Explore our other fruity infusions to continue this sensory escape.
The ingredients in this blend

- Lemongrass and ginger: the invigorating freshness that balances the sweetness.

- Natural flavoring: to highlight the peach and papaya notes.
How to prepare our exotic herbal infusion
Brewing this infusion deserves a little care to bring out its full aromatic generosity. The fleshy fruit pieces need both time and heat to release their fragrance.
Use 12 to 15 grams of blend per liter of water, roughly a heaped tablespoon for a large mug. Pour water at a rolling boil, 100°C, directly over the fruit.
Steep for 7 to 10 minutes, depending on the intensity you prefer. The longer the steep, the more the ginger and lemongrass notes come forward. For a gentler cup, keep it to 7 minutes.
The iced version for summer days
This exotic herbal infusion also shines served cold. Brew it hot using the classic method, strain, then let it cool before adding ice and a few slices of lime.
You can also try a cold brew: 15 g per liter of cold water, left in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours, for a refreshing drink with a subtle fragrance. If you're unsure which format suits you best, our herbal infusion guide will help you find the one that's right for you.
