In a nutshell: Peach Melba herbal infusion, caffeine-free, fruity and velvety smooth. Brew at 100°C (212°F) for 10 to 12 minutes, 12 to 15 g per litre. Enjoy hot or iced, any time of day.

A playful nod to the dessert Auguste Escoffier created for opera singer Nellie Melba, this herbal infusion brings together the roundness of peach, the brightness of pineapple and the delicate floral touch of rose petals. A Peach Melba you can drink, morning, afternoon or evening.

At Thés & Traditions, we wanted to craft an indulgent blend where the sweetness comes naturally from the fruit pieces themselves. Explore our herbal infusions to continue the fruity journey.

Aroma profile of the Peach Melba herbal infusion

The nose opens on a bright, ripe peach aroma, lifted by a tangy pineapple note. The opening is sunny, almost summery, evoking fruit warmed by long afternoon light.

On the palate, freeze-dried peach delivers a velvety flavour, complemented by apple pieces that lend a gentle roundness. Pineapple cubes add a refreshing edge, while rose petals and safflower leave a subtle floral finish.

The finish is indulgent, with a faint vanilla-like warmth and a lingering fruity sweetness reminiscent of a summer dessert. No bitterness, no astringency: this infusion drinks like a comforting treat. Try our Funky Kiwi herbal infusion for more fruity variety.

How to brew the Peach Melba herbal infusion

To bring out the full aromatic range of this infusion, use 12 to 15 g per litre of water, freshly boiled to 100°C (212°F). Steep covered for 10 to 12 minutes, allowing the fruit pieces to release their aromas fully.

A glass teapot or a large fine-mesh filter works best, giving the fruit pieces room to open up. A filter rest lets you extend the steep if you prefer a more intense cup.

Strain and sip as it is, without sugar: the cup is naturally sweet and satisfying. A drizzle of acacia honey is a lovely addition for those who enjoy a sweeter note, or a hint of vanilla to echo the spirit of the original Peach Melba dessert.

For an iced version, double the quantity, let the infusion cool, then serve over ice with a slice of fresh peach and a few raspberries. A summer pleasure that reimagines Escoffier's dessert as a refreshing drink.

Storage

Keep this infusion in its original tin or an airtight container, away from light, moisture and strong odours. Packaged in our workshop, it will retain its full freshness for 18 to 24 months.

Wellbeing and everyday pleasure

Caffeine-free, this infusion is suitable for the whole family and can be enjoyed at any hour. Its fruit base (apple, pineapple, peach) makes it a delicious way to stay hydrated, especially for those who find plain water hard to drink throughout the day.

According to the EFSA, adequate daily hydration (around 2 litres for adult women, 2.5 litres for adult men) supports normal cognitive and physical function. Fruit infusions are a flavourful way to contribute to that goal, as the ANSES also highlights in its nutritional guidelines.
