Details: Our tea purchaser is from Colombia, and she came up with the idea for this tea. She loves guava, and combining it with coconut and hibiscus flowers reminds her of home. To complete it, she gave it the Spanish name for the Caribbean.

Dry Leaves: Although this tea is a mixture of green and black teas, the dry leaves are mostly dark with cornflower.

Liquor: The black and green tea leaves in Caribe make for a medium-brown liquor.
