In celebration of this year's historic running of the Belmont Stakes at our very own Saratoga Race Course, we're releasing a limited edition Triple Crown Tea Gift Set inspired by the traditional tastes of each race: the Kentucky Derby's Mint Julep, the Preakness' Black Eyed Susan, and the Belmont Stakes' Belmont Jewel.

Each of the featured teas is delicious hot or iced and makes a delightful race day refreshment alone. If you're interested in making a Saratoga Tea & Honey Co. twist on the traditional race day cocktails, head on over or our blog for a Mint Julep cocktail recipe featuring our Moroccan Mint. 

Kentucky Derby: Moroccan Mint (Mint Julep)

In honor of the Kentucky Derby's traditional Mint Julep, we're featuring our refreshing Moroccan Mint tea. A green tea with peppermint and spearmint, Moroccan Mint is the quintessential taste of summer in the south. 

Preakness: Sweet White Peach (Black Eyed Susan)

Though we could have chosen a beautifully marine Japanese green tea like our Kabusecha in honor of Baltimore's delicious blue crabs, we decided instead to feature our popular Sweet White Peach tea as a nod to the Black Eyed Susan cocktail, which features peach schnapps and orange juice. Sweet White Peach is the ideal summer tea with its succulent peach aroma and fruity-floral flavor.

Belmont: Green Paddock Pom Pom (Belmont Jewel)

Our Green Paddock Pom Pom is too perfect a match for the pomegranate forward Belmont Jewel to pass up, and we love how this raspberry and pomegranate green tea blend brews hot or iced. Brew up a nice big batch and sweeten it with our local wildflower honey for the perfect refreshing iced tea on race day!
