The aromatic profile of our wild berry herbal infusion
Up front, strawberry and cranberry set the tone: bright, juicy, almost effervescent. The heart rounds out beautifully thanks to organic apple pieces and orange peel, which bring a natural sweetness with no added sugar.
Hibiscus gives the infusion its deep red colour and a gently refreshing acidity, balanced by elderberry and blackberry leaves. The result is a fruity, smooth, bitterness-free cup that sits somewhere between a summer mocktail and a comforting evening brew.
- Organic hibiscus: vivid red colour, tangy freshness
- Organic apple pieces: natural sweetness, smooth body
- Organic strawberry and natural flavouring: an indulgent, summery note
- Organic elderberry: a deep, woodland fruitiness
- Organic orange peel: a bright citrus lift
- Organic blackberry leaves: a herbal backbone that grounds the blend

How to brew the wild berry herbal infusion
Use 15 to 20 g per litre of water at a rolling boil (100°C), and steep for 10 to 12 minutes. The longer brew time allows the berries and hibiscus to fully release their aromas and beautiful red hue.
For an iced version, double the amount of leaves, brew hot, then pour over ice: you'll have a vibrant, alcohol-free fruity drink, perfect for summer. A few orange slices and a sprig of mint make a lovely finishing touch. Try this infusion as part of your daily ritual: warm in winter, iced in summer.
Wellbeing and nutritional profile
This infusion is naturally caffeine-free, making it a great choice from morning to evening. Hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa) is traditionally valued for its antioxidant compounds, as noted by ANSES in its research on plants in food.
Elderberry is associated with a contribution to polyphenol intake, according to data available on PubMed. This herbal infusion is a drink to be enjoyed: it is not a substitute for medical advice or a balanced diet.
Storage
Keep the pouch tightly sealed, away from light, moisture and strong odours. Stored this way, the fruit pieces and hibiscus will hold their fragrance for several months after opening.
