Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
More closely related to Yerba Mate than tea, Inkberry is a type of holly which grows naturally in boggy climates along the East Coast. It gives off an aroma and taste of vanilla and maple, and with a slight roast on it, it has a darker character as well. Inkberry is considered a stimulant and the perfect alternative to tea or coffee to wake up!
