Orange Pekoe (orange) and Prince of Wales (black) (the two aka "Halloween Tea") - eh, ok. I still like Irish Breakfast (green) and Darjeeling (purple) better. Somehow that makes Sense.
I should have realized that, having seen three out of four of those packages, but instead, I was mildly excited over the prospect of trying purple tea someday.
It's not impossible; it just wouldn't be true tea (short of artificial colouring). Hibiscus is a strong pink/red. I bet there's something that gives off a nice purple liquor. (Violets?)
