DETAILS
Seattle's Market Spice Black Tea Blend - Spicy yet sweet. Generous helpings of spiced orange cloves and cinnamon stick allow this product to double as a fragrant potpourri as it steeps in your cup or pot. This one is so aromatic we suggest you store it separate from other teas to keep the flavors pure.
A blend of citrus, black tea, cinnamon, and spices. This loose leaf tea warms you to the toes.
What are the special storing instructions for the signature MarketSpice Tea (cinnamon-orange)?
To preserve the delicious taste of MarketSpice and MarketSpice Decaf Tea, we recommend storing in an air-tight glass container in the refrigerator. Because citrus oils are used in this blend, we advise not to store in or use plastic utensils with this tea. We suggest freezing a portion of your purchase in order to preserve the tea and to keep it from drying out. An air-tight, sealed bag of MarketSpice Tea has a shelf life of approximately 5-6 months.
What is the nutritional information for the signature MarketSpice Tea (cinnamon-orange)?
MarketSpice Tea contains no sugar, no carbohydrates, no gluten and no calories. It is also safe for people with diabetes.
Is it okay to brew the signature MarketSpice Tea (cinnamon-orange) in my coffee pot or tea kettle?
We recommend using a teapot devoted to MarketSpice Tea only. The cinnamon and orange flavorings are quite strong and overwhelming, so unless you would like your coffee or other teas to have a cinnamon-orange taste, this will be your best solution.
Since your signature MarketSpice Cinnamon-Orange tea should NOT be stored in a plastic container or have plastic utensils used with it, is there any type of serving container or cup that should NOT be used?
Our Cinnamon-Orange tea should be served in any glass, ceramic or pottery teapot or cup. Paper cups made for hot drinks are fine. Plastic, wax-coated paper cups and styrofoam cups should be avoided as these materials will react with the cinnamon/citrus flavor combination.

Black Tea Brewing Instructions
Brew a perfect cup of black tea with these simple steps:
- Bring water to a boil (200°F).
- Pour hot water over black tea leaves (1-2 teaspoons per 8 oz water) in a teapot or infuser.
- Cover and steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired strength. A longer steep will produce a stronger flavor.
- Strain and enjoy! Black tea can be enjoyed hot or iced with milk and sugar (optional).
- For a stronger cup, use more tea leaves or a longer steeping time.
- High-quality black tea leaves from The Spice Hut will result in a more flavorful brew.
- Consider using a tea timer to ensure precise steeping times.
