The people of Thailand know a thing or three about finding a balance in life. Why three? Thats the number of Noble Disciplines that govern Theravada Buddhism, the religion practiced by 95% of the countrys population( the country is actually one of the most devoutly Buddhist nations on the planet) The three Noble Discipline, Training of the Mind and Wisdom. Even the philosophy behind Thai cuisine is all about achieving harmony and balance. Thai dishes are characterized by the balance of five fundamentals flavours hot & spicy, sour, sweet, salty and bitter. Only when all the flavours are in perfect balance can a recipe be considered perfect. In developing Thai Lemon Ginger Rooibos, weve adhered to this philosophy and the results, if we may be so bold, are indeed perfect.

The blend starts with Rooibos, while not in itself salty, dose possess a mellow herbal quality that like salt, accentuates the flavours of the other blend ingredients. Next, ginger adds the spicy hot component, followed by tart lemongrass for the sour component and dried pineapples for the sweet( we left out bitter, theres nothing bitter about this cup!) The resulting blend hits all the right notes if youve got relaxation on the brain. Brew a pot today and start thinking enlightenment.
