Fruit Teas
Fruit tea, created from an infusion of fruit (fresh or dried) and tea leaves, appeals to consumers because of its naturally sweet and refreshing flavors. Consumer demand is currently for unique and exotic fruit blends, especially hibiscus teas. Hibiscus teas are prized for their intense hue, sour taste, and abundance of antioxidants.
Herbal Teas
The popularity of herbal teas—which are made from the combination of herbs, spices, flowers, etc.—continues to rise thanks to consumer preferences for natural and wellness-oriented beverages that also include supposed health benefits.
Consumers are also looking for a variety of flavor profiles, which herbal teas provide.
Growing Markets
North America currently leads the market thanks to strong marketing tactics, product advancements, and a growing emphasis on premium and specialty teas. Health consciousness and changing taste preferences are also working to make North America a significant force in the world market for fruit and herbal teas.
There is also notable expansion occurring in the Asia-Pacific market. It’s the most rapidly expanding market for fruit and herbal beverages. Demand for creative blends and functional teas is rising due to the region’s long tradition of tea drinking, especially in nations like China, and India. Growing disposable income and a focus on overall health are the key factors driving the explosive rise of the Asia Pacific fruit and herbal tea market.
