Plants. Naturally. Purely. Botanicals, water, and time. Nothing unnecessary.
Eastern Petal makes cold extracted botanical melts, concentrated plant blends that dissolve in warm or iced water, or slowly on the tongue. We use the same gentle process for all four blends, with no added sugar or preservatives.
It began with a simple frustration: botanical drinks often don’t taste much like the plants on the label. Tea bags, instant powders and high heat extraction can lose the more delicate flavors along the way. By doing less, we let more of the plant come through.
Our four blends pair coffee with Liubao dark tea, rose with ginger, mango with coconut, and cherry blossom with cranberry.
The people behind Eastern Petal
Eastern Petal started with a simple question: Why do botanical drinks taste so different from the plants themselves?
We realized much of it came down to heat. Boiling can dull the plant’s delicate color, aroma and flavor, so we began looking for another way.
We found inspiration in Cha Gao, a concentrated form of tea with centuries of history in Eastern tea culture. Our botanical melts are a modern take on that tradition, extracted below 40°C to preserve more of each plant’s natural character in the cup.

The House
Eastern Petal is part of Verdant Lifestyle, a brand house in New York. All of our botanical melts are made at one facility in southern China, close to where the plants are grown. Every batch is tested there, then tested again by an independent laboratory in the US when it arrives.
