Zai greek mountain tea preparation with honey

Goodness only the mountains can bring.

There’s this one product that has been around you all your life, it’s super known in your home land, but almost no one knows it outside the borders.


This is what happened with me and the greek mountain tea.
In my daily life it's a must have, in others' lives it’s totally unknown.

How could it be otherwise? Mountain tea is incredibly precious: It can boost the immune system, fight colds and fix digestion. And since a couple of years, it's also known that it can even help with dementia issues.


The greek mountain tea is a humble and modest plant, but it’s kind of stubborn too. It can only grow high up in the mountains and needs a rocky soil. This is what it makes so special: It cannot be produced in an industrial scale or in another environment. In a way, it forces us to always cultivate it in harmony with nature. 


So I decided to introduce this litte wonder of nature to the rest of the world. We found the supplier with the knowledge to deliver the best quality. we gave it the only name we could think of: 


ZAÏ in Greek means simply: “tea”.

How to prepare a cup of ZAÏ

It's actually quite simple. For a cup of ZAÏ, you start with boiling approx. 250 ml of water. Take a pinch ZAÏ - as much as you can fit on a tea spoon - and put it in an infuser or tea egg. Pour the boiling water over the tea and wait for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on how intense you want it to be. In Greece it's common to sweeten it with some honey. In some regions they add some cinnamon, in others they go for lemon. Tastes vary!


ZAÏ is a high quality tea, so you can make a second infusion with the same tea portion. It will probably not taste as intense as on the first time, it depends how long it stayed in the water the first time.

Just play around a bit with amount and times and you will find your perfect preparation.
