The Whistling Kettle New Product Line Launch



The Whistling Kettle is excited to announce the launch of its new Purple Papayaberry with Lime Sparkling Tea. Made from a delightful caffeine-free herbal infusion of hibiscus, butterfly pea flower and real fruit pieces – creating a fruity infusion with a signature purple color. For the perfect level of sweetness, it's brewed with stevia leaves for an all-natural, light sweet, zero calorie taste.

“I’m excited to bring the quality of our loose-leaf teas to a convenient, ready-to-drink format.” said Chris Kreidl, Marketing Manager at The Whistling Kettle. “I’m a pretty active person and being able to throw a couple of these in a cooler to drink after a hockey game or a day at the bike park makes it easy for me to make better choices.”

Kevin Borowsky, vice president of The Whistling Kettle, says “We’re particularly excited to celebrate our 20th anniversary with the introduction of this new product line. It’s a great complement to our existing loose leaf tea offerings while staying true to our message of “For the Love of Tea”.”

Emphasizing its roots in the Capital Region, The Whistling Kettle has partnered with Nine Pin Cider to brew and can the new beverage, making this a truly local collaboration.

 

The new drink is available now at www.thewhistlingkettle.com with a retail price of $13 for a 4-pack and is also available at all Whistling Kettle locations one for $5 and in a 4-pack to take home! The Whistling Kettle offers free shipping within the US on orders of $60 and above
