Notes from Christine Yen, Chef at TEALEAVES:

“I used pomegranate juice when poaching the Asian pear, producing a rich ruby color and a tartness to complement the tea.”

Seeing Scarlet

“I thought notes of vanilla bean would pair nicely with the sweet palate of Organic Imperial Oolong. Then I used pomegranate juice when poaching the Asian pear, producing a rich ruby color and a tartness to complement the tea.” - Christine Yen, Chef at TEALEAVES
