A playful and adventurous take on an oolong, The Fool is a blend of oolong tea, mallow petals, raspberry, and edible yellow glitter*(Additional ingredient information listed below).
The Fool card has a levity to it that is unmatched by the other major arcana. This levity comes from the innocent and free spirited nature that is so closely associated with this card. Often times when this card appears in a reading, it means that traveling or adding a little spontaneity to your routine might be what you're currently needing. This tea is an apt drink for the springtime, where a heavy emphasis on fresh starts and new beginnings finds its home (and physically so, with raspberries, mallow blooms, and the yellow edible glitter being reminiscent of the pollen that graces Georgia this time of year).
*Edible glitters are a combination of mica, titanium dioxide, black iron oxide, rice extract/protein, and artificial colors. Artificial colors that may be used are Blue 1, Blue 1 Lake, Blue 2, Red 3, Red 40, Red 40 Lake, Yellow 5, Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 6, and Yellow 6 Lake. If you have any allergies to artificial colors, we suggest NOT consuming any of our Tarot teas. All edible glitters are 100% edible, FDA compliant, Kosher/Parve, gluten-free, nut-free, lactose-free, and vegan.

*Our teas are less processed with no sugar added, so a healthy pinch (between your thumb, index, and middle fingers) is perfect for a cup of tea. Do not add too much tea to your steeper of choice, as the leaves will double or triple in size. Depending on how strong you like your tea, you can also steep our tea leaves multiple times because of the quality.
