Carrot

Carrots are root vegetables first cultivated in Central Asia and now grown all over the world in many colors, from orange to purple. Dried carrot pieces add a mild, natural sweetness, a slightly earthy note and a warm orange color to the cup. They work well in fruit and herbal blends with apple, orange, ginger, beetroot and rooibos, adding body without overpowering other flavors. Carrot blends also make a playful, garden-inspired iced tea for warm afternoons.
