This tea is a fermented tea also known as “mushroom tea, red tea mushroom and tea mushroom. It got this name because during the fermentation process it looks like a mushroom although it is not a mushroom rather a combination of bacteria and yeast, then this sweet mixture is added to black, green or white tea.
