As one of the first tea companies in the U.K., Twinings tea has shaped the industry with its famous earl grey and English breakfast tea blends, as well as with its inventive new beverage lines. Originally founded as Tom's Coffee Shop in 1706 by Thomas Twining, the business began to shift its focus towards tea instead of coffee due to Thomas' extensive knowledge of tea. That business blossomed into a large, popular shop that began exporting its tea to America in 1749. Building on their classic, esteemed flavors, Twinings continues to create innovative blends, like their Wellness, Superblend, Probiotic, and Cold Infused tea lines. Add Twinings to your beverage menu for tea drinks customers are sure to love!

Suggested Recipe: Twinings Pumpkin Spice Chai Trifle
Custard Ingredients:
4 bags Twinings Pumpkin Spice Chai Tea
1 cup 35% Heavy Cream
1cup Milk
1/2 cup Packed Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Cornstarch
2 tbsp Granulated Sugar
4 egg yolks
1 cup Pumpkin Puree
2 tbsp Cold Butter, cubed
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 pinch Salt
Trifle Ingredients:
2 bags Pumpkin Spice Chai Tea
1 cup Boiling Water
1/3 cup Brandy
2 tbsp Granulated Sugar
1 cup 35% Heavy Cream
8 oz. Mascarpone Cheese
1/4 cup Icing Sugar, sifted
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
7 oz. Ladyfinger Cookies
1 cup Speculaas Cookies, crumbled

To make the Custard, in large saucepan set over medium heat, cook cream and milk until small bubbles form around side of saucepan. Add tea bags; let steep for 5 minutes. Remove tea bags. In heatproof bowl whisk together brown sugar, cornstarch and sugar; whisk in egg yolks until smooth paste forms. Gradually whisk in 1/4 of hot milk mixture into saucepan. Cook over medium low heat stirring for 8-10 minutes until thickened. Stir in pumpkin puree. Cook stirring for 3-5 minutes or until heated through.
Stir in cold butter, vanilla and salt. Immediately strain through sieve into bowl, discarding any lumps. Cover with plastic wrap directly over surface to prevent skin from forming. Let cool; refrigerate until chilled.
To Make Trifle, pour boiling water over tea bags and let steep for 5 minutes; remove tea bags. Stir in brandy and sugar; let cool completely. Meanwhile, using electric mixer, whip cream until stiff peaks start to form. In separate bowl, beat mascarpone, icing sugar and vanilla until smooth; fold in whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
To assemble Trifle spread one-quarter of Pumpkin Spice Chai Custard into bottom of 12-16 cup trifle dish or bow. One at a time, dip one third of the ladyfingers into tea mixture and place on top of custard (halving ladyfingers to fit if necessary). Layer one-third of the whipped ream mixture over top; sprinkle with one-third crumbled Speculaas cookies. Repeat layers twice, ending with Pumpkin Spice Chai Custard. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
Tip: Drizzle with caramel before serving if desired. For an alcohol free trifle, substitute orange juice and 1tsp orange zest for brandy.
