🍒 Sweet Summer Magic: Homemade Organic Cherry Treats You Can Make at Home




Fresh cherries, sweet sunshine, and old-world flavors — it’s the perfect time to turn nature’s bounty into something delicious! At Tea & Coffee of the World, we celebrate not only global brews but also the beautiful, seasonal ingredients around us. Today, we’re sharing how to make your own organic cherry sweets — no additives, just pure joy.

🍬 1. Candied Cherries (The Old-Fashioned Way)

Think of sweet, sticky cherries glistening with natural syrup — perfect for tea cakes, granola bowls, or afternoon nibbles.

You’ll need:
  • Fresh cherries (pitted)
  • Organic sugar or honey
  • Water

How to do it: Simmer the cherries in a sugar syrup, then repeat the soaking process over several days to intensify flavor. Finally, dry them until chewy and delicious!

🍒 Pro tip: Add a few to your next cup of black tea for a dessert-in-a-cup experience.

🍯 2. Cherry & Honey Jam

No preservatives, no chemicals — just ripe cherries, a little lemon, and golden honey. Spread it on toast, drizzle it over yogurt, or enjoy it on a warm scone beside your favorite cup of tea from our shop.

🌿 3. Cherry Fruit Leather (Nature’s Candy)

This one is loved by kids and grown-ups. Just puree, spread, and dry — and you’ll have a chewy, fruity snack with zero guilt.

Perfect pair: Enjoy with an iced matcha latte or cold Granada Black Tea.

🍶 4. Cherry Syrup

This sweet elixir is perfect for:

  • Mixing into soda water
  • Drizzling over ice cream
  • Sweetening your next cold brew coffee

Keep it in the fridge and enjoy cherry flavor all week long!

🍒 A Sweet Match: Fresh Market Cherries & Granada Black Tea

This morning at the local market, we picked up 1kg of organic cherries for just 1 euro — sweet, juicy, and bursting with Andalusian summer flavor.

What pairs better with cherries than a strong, bold cup of Granada Black Tea? Its deep notes of fruit and spice complement the tart-sweet cherries perfectly, whether you're making homemade jam or just enjoying a bowl of fresh fruit.

☕️ Serve it hot with cherry cake or cold over ice with a cherry garnish — the perfect summer pairing.

  Beanji in India: The Chai That Hugs Your Soul Join Beanji's Spice Market Adventure in India Beanji the panda landed in India expecting spice — but he didn’t expect every cup of tea to taste like a story . From bustling city corners to misty mountain villages, his teacup never stayed empty for long. Because here, chai isn’t just tea — it’s how India says “welcome.” 🫖 Stop #1: Mumbai — Street Chai & City Buzz His first chai came from a clanking stall on a street in Mumbai.

  Beanji in Turkey: Tea, Talk, and Tulips When Beanji arrived in Turkey, he expected baklava. What he didn’t expect was how deeply tea — or çay — flowed through every corner of life. From the bustling bazaars of Istanbul to the tea-covered hills of Rize, Beanji quickly learned: in Turkey, you’re never alone with a glass of çay . 🕌 Stop #1: Istanbul — Street Tea & Simit Rings Beanji’s first encounter came in Istanbul. As he wandered through the Grand Bazaar, a shopkeeper waved him in — not to sell, but to share. A small, tulip-shaped glass of black tea arrived, hot and deep red. No milk. Just sugar cubes and warm conversation. “This,” the shopkeeper said, “is our welcome.” 🌿 Stop #2: Rize — Where Tea Grows Wild Curious where this magical tea came from, Beanji hopped a train east to Rize , Turkey’s lush tea capital along the Black Sea. There, he hiked through endless green hills covered in tea shrubs. Locals plucked leaves by hand. Beanji even helped — sort of (he mo...
