Red Pepper, Paprika & Ginger Spice Tea
Read moreA caffeine-free herbal blend built on sage, orange leaf, lemongrass and ginger, with cinnamon, clove, cardamom and black pepper. The fifteen ingredients of the spice tea sit inside the perforated stick and steep right in your cup. Drop the stick into boiling water and let it sit for 3-5 minutes.
Sage, orange leaf and lemongrass form the base of the blend. Sage gives a lightly astringent, woody foundation, and orange leaf and lemongrass add a citrus scent. Ginger and black pepper leave a slight heat on the tongue, while cinnamon, clove and cardamom give off a warm aroma that recalls spiced drinks simmered on winter evenings. Caramel flavoring and licorice root add a soft sweetness at the end, so the tea is easy to drink without added sugar.
A blend of bark, root, seed and leaf would need a strainer in a teapot. Here the water enters through the 1,150 micro-holes in the stick's body and steeps all the spices together, and the crumbs stay out of your cup. The stick comes out without dripping. For a stronger cup, steep the stick for 5 minutes, or try it with a little milk.
Because it contains no caffeine, you can drink it after dinner or late at night. At the office or on the road, one cup of hot water makes the same tea. Each stick makes a single cup and comes individually wrapped. It is not suited to brewing several cups at once in a teapot.

The withdrawal period starts on the day the goods are delivered to the consumer or to a third party designated by the consumer.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, it is sufficient to give written notice to Akalburgers Gıda Turizm İnş. San. Tic. Ltd. Şti. through one of the following channels within this period:

Products for which the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised
Pursuant to Article 15 of the Regulation on Distance Contracts, the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised in the following cases. Because the products we sell are food items, some of the products in our store are directly affected by these exceptions:
- Contracts for the delivery of goods that are liable to deteriorate rapidly or whose expiry date may pass.
- Contracts for the delivery of goods whose protective elements such as packaging, tape, seal or wrapping have been opened after delivery, where return is not suitable for health and hygiene reasons.
- Goods that, after delivery, become mixed with other products and by their nature cannot be separated.
In practice this means: a return is accepted if the outer packaging of the box has not been opened, its seal is unbroken and the product has not been used. Tea and coffee products whose packaging has been opened cannot be accepted for return for hygiene reasons.
Return process
- Send your withdrawal notice through the channels above within 14 days. State your order number.
- Within 10 days of your notice reaching us, send the product to Arabacıalanı Mah. 588. Sok. No: 4/12, Serdivan / Sakarya, Türkiye. Since we have not named a contracted carrier in the preliminary information form, the return shipping cost is borne by us.
- Send the product in its box, together with any gift items, in a condition in which it has not lost its saleability. Enclosing a copy of the invoice speeds up the process.
- Once the product reaches us, it is inspected.
Refund
The refund is made within 7 days of the returned products reaching us, and in any case no later than 14 days after your withdrawal notice reaches us. If you withdraw from the whole order, all payments collected, including delivery costs, are refunded. If you withdraw from part of the order, the price of the products you return is refunded and the shipping fee is not. The refund is made by the payment method you used for the order and in a single payment. The time it takes for refunds to credit cards to appear in your account depends on your bank's procedures and is outside our control.
Defective products
The right of withdrawal is separate from your rights arising from a defective product and does not replace them. If the product arrives damaged, incomplete or spoiled, write to meshstickshop@gmail.com regardless of the withdrawal period. If the cargo package shows visible damage, have the courier draw up a report on delivery and do not accept the product.
Disputes
You may submit your complaints and objections, within the monetary limits set each year by the Ministry of Trade, to the Consumer Arbitration Committee or the Consumer Court at the place where you purchased the goods or services or where you reside.

Why a stick?
1,150 micro-holes
Because the water wraps the leaf from every side, the tea brews faster and fuller.
No spoon needed
The stick is both teapot and stirrer, so no spoon is needed.
Goes anywhere
In its single-serve pack it fits in a pocket, and it brews anywhere there is hot water.
Safe packaging
The outer packaging is made of food-contact OPP and keeps the tea fresh.
Drop, stir, lift out
Questions, answered
How do I brew the stick?
Drop the stick into a 200 ml cup, pour freshly boiled water over it and stir now and then for 3-5 minutes. Lift it out when the color and taste are how you like them; since it doesn't drip, there is nothing to wipe up afterward. Green teas prefer slightly cooler water, and 2-3 minutes at around 80 °C is enough.
Can I brew a second cup with the same stick?
No, each stick makes one cup. You can throw the stick away after brewing.
Is it caffeine-free?
It depends on the variety. All the fruit teas, and most of the herbal and mixed herbal teas, are caffeine-free. The caffeinated ones are Chocolate Flavored Mate Tea, Apricot Herbal Tea Blend, matcha and the Assorted Tea Pack (one of its four blends is green tea). Green tea has a little caffeine, black tea a moderate amount and coffee a high amount. Each product's caffeine information is listed in the Details row.
Is the stick safe, and what is it made of?
The stick is made of food-contact plastic and stayed within the limits of EU Regulation No 10/2011 in migration tests. It holds only the tea, herb or coffee named on the box.
Where do you ship from, and how long does it take?
Orders ship from our shipping point in Serdivan, Sakarya. Orders placed on a weekday by 13:00 ship the same day and usually reach you within 1–3 working days. Shipping is free on orders over 400 ₺ and 99,90 ₺ below that. When your order ships, we email you the tracking link.
What is your returns policy?
For unopened boxes, you have the right of withdrawal within 14 days of delivery. If the product arrived damaged or the order is wrong, please write to us and we will sort it out with an exchange or a refund. For food safety reasons, we cannot take back opened or used sticks.
Does the stick really not drip?
It doesn't. The mesh holds the water inside instead of releasing it, so you can set the stick straight on a saucer and no water pools underneath. Those 1,150 micro-holes do the work.
Can I make iced tea or cold coffee?
Yes. For iced tea, brew a herbal, fruit or green tea stick twice as strong in a little water, then pour it over a glass full of ice. For cold coffee, make the coffee strong and, once it has cooled, pour it over ice with a little milk.
