What is Rù?

A healthy, functional alternative to the Asian drinks you know and love. Our drinks are made with premium ingredients, functional vitamins, and with no added sugar.

What does Rù mean?

Rù is a word that means enter in Chinese. We often find that food and beverage is most people’s entryway into discovering and learning more about different cultures.  We hope that our drinks can provide an entryway to allow our consumers to explore the world through our products. ​

Is Rù a minority-owned business?

Yes! Our founder, Shuni Liu, was born in Beijing but bred in Philadelphia.

Over 50% of our key product ingredients are sourced from Asia and the rest are from the United States.  We keep this to balance our supply chain needs and ensure we have key ingredients to deliver authentic flavors.

Does it contain caffeine?

Our Lychee Green Tea contains 35 mg of caffeine and our Thai Tea with Mint and Lime contains 50 mg of caffeine. Our Chrysanthemum tea contains no caffeine and is a great option for those of us who are caffeine - sensitive.

Are there known allergens?

If you’re allergic to daisies or ragweed, you might also be allergic to chrysanthemum. Definitely stop consuming it if you have a reaction like a skin rash or respiratory irritation.
Some chrysanthemum products may interact with prescription medicines. If you are taking prescription medicines, ask your doctor before you start using any chrysanthemum goods.
