In addition to our classic teas, Dobrá Tea also offers some of its own blends and recipes. The following teas are our signature favorites. Be sure to try our authentic Indian Chai tea, a rich infusion of Assam tea sweetened with organic sugar and local milk. The taste is sure to bring you back to the streets and train stations of India. Moroccan Touareg is an authentic recipe based on the North African Touareg tribe, who sip very sweetened mint tea in the hot dessert climates to cool down.
The majority of our special teas are also available caffeine free.
