My old favorite brand of tea was the only one tested with 0% pesticide residue!!! I'm baaaack.


Good old Red Rose was the tea my beautiful Grandmother drank every day. She would make us cups of sweet creamy tea. I must have been about 7 when we started drinking tea together. I drank Red Rose until my forties then switched to herbal teas for the health benefits. After two decades of drinking Celestial Seasonings {organic and fair trade} they were sited by the FDA for having over the legal limits of pesticides. REALLY!! So I started making my own organic herbal teas. Then I saw a report that when teas were tested in Canada, the only one that contained 0% pesticides was....that's right, Red Rose Tea. So I'm back. Yummmm. I've missed it.
