Black Tea: Black tea is rich in antioxidants, particularly theaflavins and thearubigins, which are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and potential to improve cardiovascular health. It also contains caffeine, which can enhance alertness and cognitive function; Bergamot: Bergamot oil, derived from the rind of bergamot oranges, has been shown to have antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce stress and anxiety due to its calming effects; Peach: While peach flavoring is primarily for taste, peaches themselves are rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and fiber. However, as a flavoring in tea, the primary benefit is the enhancement of taste rather than significant nutritional value.

Black Tea: Black tea has a long history dating back to China, where tea was first discovered. It became popular in Europe during the 18th century, particularly in Britain, where it was a staple of afternoon tea. The addition of milk and sugar became a British tradition, though it is enjoyed in various ways around the world; Bergamot: Bergamot oranges are native to Italy and were highly valued for their oil, which was used in perfumes and as a flavoring agent. The use of bergamot in Earl Grey tea is attributed to Charles Grey, the 2nd Earl Grey, who received a special blend of tea flavored with bergamot as a gift in the 19th century; Peach: Peaches have a rich history in China, where they were considered a symbol of good fortune and longevity. They were introduced to Europe by the Romans and later became popular in the United States. The use of peach flavoring in teas is a more modern innovation, reflecting contemporary trends in flavor combinations.
