Victoria Bitter has filled a hole in the market you never knew existed and released a beer-flavoured tea.
It’s taken the quintessential tea bag and launched a product that will make your mug of hot water taste like the chiller at your local.
The limited-edition VB Teabag is part of a promotional push ahead of this year’s Ashes series in England.
The tea, which comes in packs of 24 (of course), is comprised of a combination of Ceylon black tea leaves and VB’s own “Super Pride Hops,” with the result looking and tasting like you’d expect a beer tea to taste.
There’s no actual alcohol in it, but if you desire a warm morning beverage that tastes like everything wrong you drank last night, then this is the brew for you.
The tea is available via the VB official store for $10 a pop with the initial run selling out soon after its launch.
The VB beer tea might be right up lead singer of the Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger’s alley who’s reported to have said,
“I got nasty habits; I take tea at three.”
