- Purple tea is a type of tea derived from the leaves, buds and shoots of a crossbreed variety of the Camellia Sinensis plant, the plant from which black tea, green tea, yellow tea, white tea and oolong tea are derived. Unlike the rest, the purple tea plant is purple-red in colour and so are its anthocyanins (antioxidants which give rise to the purple colour). Anthocyanins are the same compounds found in other purple foods such as raspberries and purple grapes. Purple tea has many health benefits and some people prefer it to green tea due to its appealing taste.

Purple Tea is rich in anthocyanin (a flavanoid), the plant itself has a red-purple color but the tea comes out with a slightly purple hue. That regal color is as a result of high levels of anthocyanins, which have many anti-in-inflammatory and anti-viral-benefits.
