Lime Gelato
Lime Gelato
100g
Information:
Gelato–which translates to “frozen” from Italian–is a frozen treat from Italy which was originally created in the 16th century.
One of the basic differences between gelato and the ice cream we know of in North America is that it contains two thirds less butterfat and it doesn't have as much air, therefore has a more intense flavour. Gelato is healthier than American-style ice cream since it is made with all natural ingredients and contains fewer calories and less butter fat.
Celebrate gelato's history by brewing a cup of Lime Gelato herb and fruit tea. It is a delicious way to treat yourself during those hot summer days. A juicy blend of herbs and dried fruits you're going to love. Just turn your kettle on and bring all the juicy flavours of lime gelato to your favourite teacup or simply enjoy it as iced tea.
