WHAT IS CASCARA
Cascara is a bi-product of coffee as we know it; it’s the dried husk of the cherry coffee, which beans (seeds) grow inside of. When prepared, cascara is the common-ground between coffee & tea, even though it’s part of the coffee plant it doesn’t taste like coffee at all. Containing roughly 1/5th the caffeine of coffee & packed full of antioxidants, this sweet tasting coffee cherry tea is an all day sipper…did we mention it tastes great hot & cold..?
