Ginseng Punch is one of the herbal blends from Akbar, built around ginseng root with a selection of other herbs. This is the smaller tin format: 15 pyramid tea bags, each holding 2g.
Ginseng gives the cup an earthy, slightly sweet base, and the added herbs bring soft floral and herbal notes over the top. The pyramid shape leaves room for the cut ingredients to move in the water, so the bag gives up its flavour evenly. The tin keeps the bags dry and makes a neat container once the tea is finished.
