Tangerine

Tangerine is a small, easy-peel citrus closely related to the mandarin, long grown in China and now enjoyed worldwide. Its dried peel adds a sweet, fragrant citrus aroma that is softer and rounder than orange, with a gentle zesty tang. Tangerine pairs beautifully with black tea, green tea, white tea and rooibos, and it blends well with ginger, cinnamon, vanilla and other citrus. Try a tangerine blend iced on a warm day, or hot with a touch of honey.
