Cascara is one of those quirky products that most people outside of the barista bubble probably aren't familiar with. Simply put, cascara is dried coffee cherry skin with the slightest bit of residual fruit clinging to it. How to brew cascara tea Use 2 heaped teaspoons, 12g, of cascara for 500ml of water boiled to around 90°C. Steep for five minutes, or as desired. Cascara can be brewed for as long as you want, increasing strength without developing off flavours. How to cold brew cascara Place 6 heaped teaspoons, 36g, of cascara and 300ml of cold water in the fridge and leave to steep for 24 hours. Strain and serve over ice, dilute to taste with filtered water (1:3 cascara concentrate to water).

makes a nice change from coffee itself
Curious but pleasant drink.... makes a nice change from coffee itself. Will buy again.

Would be better if they sold a smaller taster version or had instructions on the packet
Can't say I'm a fan of the stuff, even after spending 3 hours making tea of different concentrations, sugar levels and temperatures. I might just be making it wrong but then again I don't know that.

Delicious
Delicate raisin notes and sweet after taste. Very tasty and different to your average brew
