These days, everyone is pretty much into the wellness craze. Left and right, people are flocking to health centers and health food restaurants to engage in a new fitness program or to get their fill of low-calorie, high-nutrition fare. But sometimes, trying to be healthy can be frighteningly pricey, and just discourages us from jumping into the wellness wagon. Although, there is one place where wellness is affordable and, more importantly, drinkable!
naatea, located at United Business Centre II in Phrom Phong, proclaims itself as an expert in full-leaf tea. The brand is dedicated to providing a daily dose of wellness to anyone seeking a simple and convenient way to cleanse and detox both their body and mind.
The tea served here is made using the cold-brewing process. This technique, according to founder Pratchaya “Sun” Sananvatananont, is rarely used in making tea, but it does offer a full range of benefits for nutrition and taste. He explains that, because it doesn’t go through heat, cold brew tea retains its antioxidant and vitamin C content. Moreover, the bitterness people come to expect from most teas is rid of. The result is a more enjoyable and a more body-beneficial drink.
naatee has six types of cold brew tea—genmaicha, jasmine, sencha, oolong, Earl Grey and barley. You can opt for a Cold Brew Pure (B65/16oz and B85/22+oz) or a flavored Cold Brew Blends (B85/oz and B85/22+oz). Fruit lovers can try the Cold Brew Fruits (B105/16oz and B125/22+oz), a drink that deserves hands-down praise. The cup blends the sweetness of fresh fruits, like pineapple, orange and watermelon, with the invigorating taste of tea, resulting in an extremely energizing drink.
The menu also includes flavored tea, such as the calming Oolong Honey Lime, the mood-boosting Earl Grey Yakult and the relaxing Jasmine Aloe, all priced at B85/oz and B85/22+oz, as well as an omakase option for those who can’t decide what they want. This tasting set (B200) comprises five 16oz cups of Cold Brew Pure tea.
It’s not easy to drag yourself to a strenuous exercise session (we get it), but health and wellness may be just as easily achieved with a simple but nutrition-rich drink. Come and get your daily dose of wellness at naatea.
