Mediterranean Garden herbal tea

Under azure skies bathed in light, where nature exudes its most captivating scents, Jardin Méditerranéen transports you to the heart of eternal summer.

A harmony of herbs: verbena, basil, and thyme

Made from organic plants carefully cultivated in France, this creation from the Jardin à la Fauchon collection celebrates the very essence of the Mediterranean. Sparkling verbena brings a luminous freshness, while intoxicating basil diffuses its sunny and delicious aromas. Fragrant thyme, meanwhile, reveals all the aromatic richness of the maquis and scrubland, for an intense and authentic experience.
With every sip, Jardin Méditerranéen invites you on a sensory journey, where the vibrant scents of the South blend in a warm and invigorating harmony. It's an escape into nature, a stroll among fields of aromatic herbs and summer breezes, where time seems to stand still. From the French terroirs, Jardin Méditerranéen is much more than an infusion: it's an invitation to travel, a promise of sunshine and sweetness, to be enjoyed at any time of day.

Our iced verbena version, perfect for summer

A fresh and natural cold infusion
To prepare an iced tea with Fauchon Jardin Méditerranéen infusion, simply steep a few bags (adjust according to your strength preferences) in a liter of filtered water. You can choose a cold infusion by placing the mixture directly in the refrigerator for 8 hours, or steep at room temperature for 2 hours before refrigerating until the drink is chilled. Once the infusion is filtered, serve it with ice cubes for a refreshing drink. To enhance the aromas of verbena, basil, and thyme, you can add a few lemon slices, fresh basil leaves, or citrus zest. Or sweeten with a drizzle of our FAUCHON acacia honey. This iced version is ideal for enjoying a light, fragrant, and thirst-quenching drink, perfect for hot days or relaxing moments.

An infusion, a herbal tea, and a tea all refer to hot drinks, but they differ in their ingredients and preparation.

THE tea comes exclusively from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant and naturally contains caffeine.

On the other hand, a herbal tea is a beverage made by infusing plants, flowers, fruits, or spices other than the tea plant, and is generally caffeine-free.

The term infusion actually refers to the process of soaking plants in hot water to extract their aromas and active ingredients; it applies to both tea and herbal teas. Thus, all herbal teas are infusions, but not all infusions are herbal teas, and tea is a particular infusion with a specific origin.

An infusion, a decoction and a maceration are three methods of extracting the active ingredients from plants, but they differ in their method of preparation. infusion consists of pouring hot water over the plants, then letting them sit for a few minutes to extract the aromas and benefits, ideal for fragile parts such as flowers or leaves.

decoction involves boiling the plants in water for several minutes, which is best for harder parts like roots, bark, or seeds, in order to extract the tougher components.

maceration, on the other hand, consists of soaking the plants in a cold liquid or at room temperature for several hours or even days, often used to prepare alcohol or oil-based extracts, or cold drinks, without heating.

To prepare FAUCHON infusions, start by heating water to a simmer, ideally around 90°C to preserve the delicate aromas. Then place the tea bag or dose of infusion in a cup and pour the hot water over it. Let it steep for 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the desired strength. Remove the tea bag or strain the infusion before enjoying. This simple method reveals the full richness and finesse of the ingredients selected by Fauchon, for a unique and refined tasting experience.

Drinking herbal teas every day is enjoyable and beneficial, as long as you vary the plants to enjoy different flavors and benefits, such as relaxation or digestion. Because some plants are more potent, it's recommended to diversify your infusions to fully appreciate their effects. That's why FAUCHON has created three new infusions, designed to meet all your desires and support you every day.

There verbena is known for its relaxing properties: it helps to calm stress, promote sleep and soothe digestive tension.

The thyme, rich in antioxidants and essential oils, supports natural defenses and helps relieve winter ailments such as coughs or respiratory problems.

As for the basil, it has digestive and anti-inflammatory properties, while providing a refreshing and slightly invigorating touch.
