How important is sustainability for you?
We care a lot about our planet, there for we try to work as much as we can with companies that have the same standards as us.
We see the importance in managing a sustainable business process for ourselves, but also the family we work with. Little examples would be to recycle but mostly reduce waste, use organic cleaning materials and work with organic ingredients as much as we can. There are some challenges though.
We are not allowed to apply the certificates on our package. In order to do so, we would have to be certified as a company which costs a lot of money. We refuse to let our costumers pay extra for an organic product that was already certified by the partners we work with.
Feel free to get in contact if you would like to know more about what certificates your favorite By Trinitea product holds. We would love to share this with you.
What else do you stand for?
We dislike discrimination of any kind. We want to run a business where we spread joy, where we can grow and where we can share our passion for tea and flavors in general. We like to be as sustainable as possible while doing so. We believe all of this should be the standard and not a unique selling point.
Our suppliers make sure the farmers get a good price for their product and support them to create a company that runs a fair business, where employees get equal chances. We are happy to be part of this awesome chain.
Feel free to get in contact if you would like to know more.
What is the shelf life of your products?
In general we work with dried products (excluding our Guilty Pleasure syrup), so they will never go bad or cause any reactions. How ever, also dried product will loose their spark at some time. Most of our ingredients will still be awesome after one or two years.
You will find a best before date on your package, which will give you an indication untill when the tea is still at it’s best. After that try the tea and see if it still matches your expectations. #zerowaste
How to get the best end result when brewing my tea?
Let us give you a few tips to become a pro!
First of all, your water quality is very important and can make a huge difference in the flavor of your tea. Try to brew with different types of water to see which one suits you best.
Second would be to look at the magical recipe that is on the package. You really don’t need that much tea as you can see. Don’t forget to infuse your tea for a second time to make the most out of this beautiful product.
Third.. Use a strainer or make sure the tea has space to bloom and release flavors! Strainers can be found in our webshop of course. Enjoy brewing!
Can I send the tea as a gift?
We offer giftboxes that have a more festive look. Any other tea or product can be send out with a personal note. All you have to do is leave us a message in the comment sections when checking out of our webshop.
How do I make my own ice tea?
All of our tea’s are so awesome to drink cold! For the actual teas (so not infusions/herbs) start with dosing 12 grams on 1 liter of filtered cold water and leave to brew for at least 4 to 5 hours in the fridge. Adjust to your own preference. Like your ice tea a little sweeter? Add a tiny bit (around 8 grams) of sugar water or honey/agave syrup or go crazy with adding fruits. It is all about experimenting in the end. Also check our social media for other type of coldbrews, infusions, kombucha inspiration.
If you want a quick recipe for ice tea, just go with the magical recipe on the back of your package and let it cool down. Does the trick every time!
