Tetley Tells Moms "A Teasplash A Day Can Help Keep Kids Happy & Healthy

Tetley is asking moms to Rethink Tea with “Teasplashing.” Splashing some fruit juice into decaffeinated tea makes for tasty, healthful new treats – great for both kids and adults.

A healthier alternative to hot cocoa and hot apple cider, these recipes combine either green or black decaffeinated Tetley Tea with 100% juices – apple, blueberry and pomegranate. Or modify with your kids’ favorite juices.

Both green and black tea provide powerful, immune system-boosting antioxidants, which can be especially helpful to kids fighting colds. And by adding 100% juice, they’ll get the vitamins and nutrients they need with a taste they’ll love. Best of all, “Teasplashing” is an affordable solution for moms, since both ingredients are grocery list regulars.
