Tea Mixologist Top Tip

Great as a hot tea with a soft violet flavour, adding a little splash of milk softens the black tea. Lovely cold brewed in coconut milk too. Makes great gin too when cold brewed for two days!

Excited, but then sad.

I'm a big fan of the sweets and was excited to hear that Bird and Blend was producing a Parma Violets tea!

I've tried this hot (over-brewed several times) and also as a cold brew; however, I cannot get on with it. There's a bitterness on swallowing that I can't enjoy, which I had hoped the cold brew would help with.

Overall, it does smell and (ignoring the bitterness) tastes of parma violets. I suggest trialling a pack first before investing in a larger size (I had the gift cube first).

Hi Kerry,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review of Parma Violets. I'm sorry to hear that it didn't work out too well for you though!

I've popped you an email to see if there is anything we can do :)

Chat soon,
Claire @ B&B

Fun and Elegant; a rare combo

I wanted this tea to work! I took the risk of soap flavour 🧼 ...but can happily report that this tea has a beautiful flavour pop, without being overpowering. Unlike the actual sweets it doesn't taste chemical. Rather the quality of the black tea dominates.
