This is as delicate a question as asking what wines are best paired with which foods. What foods to pair with your tea depend on the characteristics of the tea in question. If you’re enjoying a flavored tea, you can pair it up with heavier and spicy foods. On the other hand, unflavored stand-alone tea has delicate aromas and flavors that can easily be overwhelmed by the wrong pairings. Lighter foods such as chicken or salad are your best bet for pairing with unflavored teas. For more pairing suggestions, be sure to check out the Tea Pairing section of this website.
