The summer-glass cup — Chinese green tea with watermelon and lime, the iced-brew built for the picnic jug.
Some teas are built for the kettle and the mug; this one is built for the jug, the ice and the porch chair. A clean Chinese green tea base sits underneath — bright, slightly grassy — and on top, dried watermelon and lime peel turn the cup into something closer to fruit water than to a hot tea. It works hot for fifteen minutes a year; the rest of the year, it lives in the fridge.
The watermelon comes through gently, the way watermelon comes through anything — a soft, naturally sweet hint rather than a candied burst. Lime peel adds the bright top note that keeps the cup from going slack. Lower in caffeine than a black tea, drinks like a flavoured water without the syrup.
Chinese Green Base
Pan-fired leaf, bright and clean — iced-friendly
Real Watermelon

Tasting Notes
Lime-Melon Top
Aroma
The aroma walks in fresh and faintly tropical — lime peel sits brightest on top, watermelon’s soft sweetness sits behind it. Reads more cocktail than tea.
Bright Light Body
Body
The green tea base brews bright and clean, the body just structured enough to carry the fruit. Cold, the watermelon sweetness comes forward; hot, the green leaf does.
Clean Sweet Finish
Aftertaste
Closes naturally sweet from the dried fruit, no candy edge. Refreshing rather than rich — the cup leaves the mouth feeling rinsed rather than coated.
How to Brew
For Hot Tea
1 heaped tsp per 8oz cup, ~80°C water, 2–3 minutes. Don’t over-steep — green tea past four minutes turns astringent.
For Iced (Hot Method)
Brew double-strength hot, sweeten lightly with honey while warm, then pour over ice. The watermelon comes through cleaner cold than hot.
For Cold-Brew
1 tablespoon per litre of cold water, in a jug overnight in the fridge. Strain in the morning. Drinks like a fruit water — built for the picnic.
Water
~80°C / cold
Time
2–3 min / 8 hrs
Per Cup
1 heaped tsp
A sprig of fresh mint and a slice of lime in the iced glass takes the cup somewhere closer to a cocktail than a tea. Pour it for guests on a hot day instead of lemonade — same idea, no sugar required.
About the Tea
Chinese Green Tea
The Base
Pan-fired Chinese green leaf — the same wok-rolled style used in Sampson’s Lucky Dragon and Long Island Strawberry. The cup brews bright and clean, the perfect canvas for fruit.
Watermelon & Lime
The Fruit
Dried watermelon pieces and cut lime peel are the two flavours that define the cup. Watermelon adds the soft natural sweetness; lime peel keeps the cup bright. Real fruit, not just flavour drops.
Hibiscus Touch
The Lift
A small accent of hibiscus adds a gentle pink tint when iced and a clean tart edge that keeps the watermelon’s sweetness from going slack. The same lift hibiscus brings to a Sangria or a karkadeh.
In the tin
Green tea, watermelon pieces, lime peel, hibiscus, natural watermelon and lime flavours.
Origin & Sourcing
Built on Chinese pan-fired green tea — bright and clean — with dried watermelon pieces, cut lime peel and a small accent of hibiscus. Designed for iced drinking and cold-brew jugs more than for hot mugs. Lower in caffeine than a black tea, blended in small batches for the Sampson shelf.
