Charlotte — Inspired by “Charlotte's Web”
Charlotte is a heartwarming cranberry-flavored black tea blend inspired by the timeless classic, Charlotte’s Web. Once banned in Kansas for its themes of death and talking animals, this story remains a powerful reminder of life’s beauty and the bonds we share. With comforting notes of rosehips and elderberries, this fruity and fragrant brew is perfect for a peaceful moment amidst a busy day. Whether sipped hot or iced, it’s a delightful way to honor the courage and friendship that make life extraordinary.

Read what Partnering Author Kennedy Sutton has to say about this blend!
“Inspired by a book I’ve never read and a movie I didn’t like as a kid, this tea surprised me.
Despite having no chocolate in it, it’s a little chocolatey. I'm not sure why, maybe Lynn knows.
The elderberries and cranberries give this tea a lot of depth, with one being juicy and sweet and the other bearing a tartness that balances it out beautifully. From what I know of the story where this tea gets its name, that makes perfect sense. It is two things at once, just as Charlotte's Web is a story of friendship and grief.
Charlotte reminds me of campfires and lightning bugs. It beckons me out to the back porch in the evening to watch the stars come out. It tastes like dessert with a few teaspoons of sugar.
I have different favorite teas by the day, but this one remains at the top of my list. There is something about it that always writes my name in its web.”
