“Tea drops” is the umbrella term for tea formats that dissolve in water within seconds – no bag, no steeping time, no filter waste. In Switzerland, TEABALLS do exactly that: small pressed tablets made from tea and plant extract. Here is what is behind the format and how to use it day to day.
What are tea drops – and what are TEABALLS?
“Tea drops” describes small, highly concentrated tea portions that go straight into the glass. Instead of letting leaves or a bag steep, the portion dissolves and the tea is ready to drink.
TEABALLS are the Swiss version – but not a liquid: they are solid, pressed tablets. One per glass, stir briefly, done. No sugar, no tea bag. Unlike liquid concentrates they need neither a bottle nor a measuring cap.
Hot or cold – both work
- Put one TEABALL in the glass
- Add hot or cold water
- Stir briefly – ready in seconds
For iced tea, simply use cold water. You control the strength through the amount of water, not through steeping time – there is none, and the tea will not turn bitter after ten minutes in the glass.
Instant tea without sugar
TEABALLS contain no added sugar. That makes them a fit for anyone replacing sweet drinks without giving up flavour. If you are looking for organic quality, the organic collection holds eight varieties – among them Chai Latte, Jasmine Green Tea, Ginger Turmeric Orange as well as Good Morning and Good Evening.
Practical on the move, at the office and when travelling
Pressed tablets weigh almost nothing and need no individual wrapper with string and tag. They fit in a desk drawer, a backpack and hand luggage. No wet tea bag to put down somewhere, and no waiting for the tea to steep – at the office in particular, that is the practical difference.
Conclusion
Anyone searching for “tea drops” usually means exactly this: tea without effort, without a bag and without sugar. That is what TEABALLS are made for – as a pressed tablet rather than a drop.
