A Betty’s Blend creation. Get it while it lasts.

We originally created this blend as an exclusive tea giveaway for our friend Laura Stahl. She’s the voice of Barbara in the Genshin Impact video game. We were asked to create Barbara’s Chilibrew that she gives to players in the game. So as we traveled cross country in our vintage camper (Backroad Betty) we were able to source the perfect chili peppers from Santa Fe, NM.

It was such a hit we decided to make more. But we’ve only got a limited supply of chili. So when it’s gone, it’s gone. At least until our next road trip adventure.

Do you need that extra boost of energy with a hint of sweetness and spice? Have no fear we’ve created a concoction of Barbara’s ChiliBrew that Barbara would be proud of.

You’ll get 2 oz (20-30 cups) of this caffeinated blend.
(available in tea bags too just contact me for a custom order)

And remember, it is made with chili pepper so it does have a little kick.

Last tea to try from the sampler my coworker bought me back in May? If you come across this, Gary, thanks again for your generosity :)

Edited to make this a simpler note than the comparison I had written up yesterday to a tea in the same vein: Frontier’s Warming Crimson Berry https://steepster.com/teas/frontier-natural-products-co-op/17906-warming-crimson-berry-tea While I used to appreciate Warming Crimson Berry, Chili Brew is world’s better!

Chili Brew contains Ceylon black tea, hibiscus, dried blackberries, New Mexico chiles, orange peel and chrysanthemum. The fresh, warming bite of chili pepper hits the senses first followed by the full and juicy mouthfeel provided by hibiscus. Every ingredient comes together to produce a cohesive profile that is not excessively sour or acrid like so many hibiscus blends can be (no sugar needed!). Fruity and iron/earthy, juicy, definitely warming, fortifying. Not much caffeinating since the black tea is not in high proportion to the rest of the ingredients, none of which are flavorings. Good for one solid steep that can be brewed for well over the recommended 3-5 minutes.

I’d recommend this to people who can tolerate a solid dash of regular hot sauce on their food, and I don’t mean Taco Bell hot sauce. A little spicier than Crystal, not as much as Tabasco.

Glad I saved this fortifying brew for the rainy season. On a cold-ass, time-change morning when my hormones are rebelling, it’s helping me hate my body less :P
