More than a beverage, this tea invites you on a taste journey where each sip tells a story of age-old traditions and captivating flavors.


In this article, we reveal the secrets of this unique recipe, its benefits for the body and mind, and why Périple sur le Nil is much more than just a tea.

 

The recipe: A symphony of flavors

Black tea: a rich and deep base

The heart of Périple sur le Nil is a high-quality black tea, selected for its rich aromas and bold character. Known for its robustness and malty notes, black tea provides the perfect base for the more fruity and floral ingredients in this blend.

The black tea used in our recipe comes from environmentally friendly plantations, where each leaf is hand-picked to ensure optimal freshness and quality. In addition to its intense flavor, black tea is known for its many benefits:

  • Gentle stimulation thanks to its caffeine content.
  • Powerful antioxidants, including flavonoids, which help fight oxidative stress.
  • Digestive support, ideal after a heavy meal.


Hibiscus infusion: a floral and tangy touch


Hibiscus, also known as "karkade" in Egypt, is an iconic flower in oriental infusions. In Périple sur le Nil , the hibiscus infusion brings a tangy and refreshing note that perfectly balances the richness of the black tea.

Besides its unique taste, hibiscus is renowned for its virtues:

  • Lower Blood Pressure: Numerous studies show that hibiscus helps maintain healthy blood pressure.
  • Detoxifying properties, thanks to its ability to eliminate toxins from the body.
  • Support for digestion and liver health.

 

Grapes: a natural sweetness


Grapes, a symbol of abundance and vitality, are incorporated into this recipe in dried form. They add a natural sweetness and fruity nuances reminiscent of the colorful markets of Egypt.

Grapes are also an ally for health:

  • Rich in resveratrol, an antioxidant that protects the heart.
  • Provides vitamins C and K, essential for skin and bones.
  • Energizing effect thanks to its natural sugar content.


The date: a treasure of the desert


No trip to the banks of the Nile would be complete without the presence of the date, that sacred fruit of the oases. In our tea, the date brings a caramelized and sweet note, ideal for softening the bitterness of black tea and the acidity of hibiscus.

The benefits of dates are numerous:

  • A quick source of energy, ideal for a revitalizing break.
  • Rich in fiber, promoting digestion.
  • Mineral intake, particularly potassium and magnesium, essential for proper muscle function.


The fig: a gourmet and exotic touch


Finally, the fig, with its soft texture and deliciously sweet taste, completes this blend by adding a gourmet touch. Known since ancient times for its nourishing properties, the fig is an emblematic fruit of biblical stories and oriental tales.

Among its benefits:

  • Source of calcium, for strong bones.
  • Rich in fiber, helping to regulate intestinal transit.
  • Satiety effect, perfect for avoiding cravings.
  • The benefits of a cup of Nile Journey
  • Drinking a cup of Journey on the Nile is treating yourself to a moment of well-being and disconnection.


A revitalizing drink


Thanks to the combination of black tea and fruit, this infusion is ideal for regaining energy without the stimulating effect of coffee. The presence of hibiscus and dates helps maintain constant energy throughout the day.


Support for digestion


Ingredients like hibiscus, date, and fig are known for their beneficial effects on digestion. This infusion is perfect after a meal, helping to soothe the stomach and promote better nutrient absorption.


An ally for detoxification


Hibiscus, rich in antioxidants, helps eliminate toxins from the body, while black tea supports liver function. A Nile Journey can therefore be beneficial during seasonal changes.
