Manhattan, New York – Pure Leaf tea… the next generation of “iced tea”.

By

I’m honest and transparent about what I do, and as someone who’s skeptical and somewhat critical about everything, I had to do more research. Luckily, the more I learned, the more enthusiastic I got about Pure Leaf. It isn’t just another “iced tea” on the market, but it’s the only ready to drink iced tea in Canada made from fresh tea leaves.

New York – An interview with Dan Kluger & dining at ABC Kitchen with Jean-Georges

By
