"Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world revolves-slowly evenly, without rushing toward the future." Thich Nat Hahn

This cup has a mellow tropical fruit characer that has sweet overtones. Perfect iced! Rather than being named by an amorous botanist, Passion Fruit (Latin: Passiflora edulis) was given its name by Jesuit priests in Brazil in the 1700's. The Jesuits who found the fruit growing in abundance felt that the crown shaped flowers of the fruit, reminded them of the crown of thron worn by Jesus before he was crucified, an event known as the Passion of Christ. 2 oz makes 20-25 cups of tea.
