A 100% Texas Native Tea take on a refreshing classic!🌿

Fresh mint, lime, simple syrup, and iced yaupon tea make for a bright, easy-drinking combination that’s perfect for warm afternoons on the porch. It’s one of our favorite ways to enjoy yaupon, North America’s only caffeinated plant, this time of year.

And if you’d like a more traditional mojito, just add a splash of rum. Cheers🥂

This iced tea is as sustainable as it is sweet. 🌿🧊

One of the things we love most about yaupon is that it belongs here. As the only naturally caffeinated plant native to North America, it has been growing across Southern landscapes for centuries.

It also happens to make a really good iced tea. Yaupon is known for its smooth flavor, subtle natural sweetness, and lack of bitterness, even when brewed for longer periods.

So when you pour a glass of iced yaupon, you’re enjoying a refreshing summer drink made from a plant with deep roots and a story worth sharing.

What’s your favorite way to enjoy iced tea in the summer?🌿🧊
