Dragon Fire (Sri Lanka)

2.5 oz. (25-30 cups) or 8 oz. (80-90 cups) This is a spiced chai like no other: Inspired by Sri Lanka’s southern cuisine, it's a strong black tea blended with locally grown hot chili peppers. Then cinnamon and nutmeg are added to provide a beautiful counter balance. Like Sri Lanka's mythical Makara, Dragon Fire seizes the palate with spiciness and intricate sweet flavors. The tea itself comes from Sri Lanka's Sinharaja Rain Forest region where it is hand-picked and ground up to create an amazing combination! Brewing instructions Amount: 1 teaspoon or 2 gram of loose tea per cup of water Temperature: 212 ̊ (A full, rolling boil) Steep time: 3 minutes About Our Sri Lankan Tea Formerly called Ceylon, the island of Sri Lanka has produced some of the finest tea in the world for the last 150 years. While the tea industry survived Sri Lanka’s 30-year-long civil war intact, it has also bolstered the entire country’s continued economic recovery since the war's end in 2009.
