Apples have been grown across Europe and Central Asia for thousands of years, and dried apple pieces are the backbone of countless fruit tea blends. They brew a naturally sweet, mellow cup with a gentle orchard aroma and give the infusion a fuller body. Apple pairs with almost anything: cinnamon, ginger, berries, citrus, hibiscus, rooibos and black tea. Because the pieces hold their flavor well, apple blends are lovely both piping hot in winter and poured over ice in summer.

Coconut comes from the large fruit of the coconut palm, which grows along tropical coastlines from Southeast Asia to the Caribbean. Dried coconut flakes or chips add a creamy, nutty sweetness and a soft tropical aroma that rounds out the cup. Coconut is a favorite in black tea, green tea, rooibos and pu-erh blends, often teamed with pineapple, vanilla, almond or chocolate. Coconut blends are lovely iced in summer, and they taste rich and dessert-like with a little milk.

Cranberries are small red berries native to North America, traditionally harvested from flooded bogs in places like Massachusetts and Wisconsin. Dried cranberry pieces bring a bright, tart, tangy berry flavor with a gentle sweetness and a festive ruby color in the cup. They shine in fruit blends, herbal blends, rooibos and black tea, pairing nicely with orange, apple, hibiscus, cinnamon and vanilla. A cranberry blend makes a wonderful iced tea, and a hot cup feels right at home on a holiday table.

Pineapple is a tropical fruit native to South America and now grown widely in Costa Rica, the Philippines, Thailand and Hawaii. Dried pineapple pieces add a juicy, tangy-sweet flavor with a bright, sunny aroma and a lively tropical zing. They pair beautifully with green tea, white tea, rooibos and fruit blends featuring mango, coconut, papaya, ginger or passion fruit. Pineapple blends make a fantastic iced tea, and a splash of coconut milk gives them a fun piña colada twist.
