How to Choose the Best Herbal Tea for You

Herbal teas, which are naturally caffeine free, are sometimes also called tisanes or herbal infusions. They're not actually related to the "true" tea plant (botanical name camellia sinensis)—instead, they're made from a variety of different herbs, fruits, and spices. Common herbal tea ingredients include peppermint, ginger, chamomile, and rooibos.

4. Horchata Rooibos Herbal Tea

Our Horchata Rooibos is an herbal tea blend inspired by horchata, a traditional Hispanic drink found at aguas frescas stands during summer festivals and fiestas. Many northern New Mexican restaurants also serve this classic rice milk drink. Flavored with cinnamon and other spices, it's creamy and refreshing on hot summer days.

If you want: a simple and classic single-ingredient herbal tea

These simple herbal teas feature just one ingredient each. But what they may lack in complexity, they more than make up for in terms of the high quality of ingredients, which add an uncommon depth of flavor to these staple teas.

1. Egyptian Chamomile Herbal Tea

Our Egyptian Chamomile is made from the highest quality organic chamomile sourced from Egypt. This single-ingredient herbal tea is characterized by large, fragrant chamomile flower heads, and brews up into a lovely gold-colored infusion, with a mellow natural sweetness and notes of straw, honey, and apples.

Our organic Peppermint is an exceptional single-ingredient tea with a bright, minty flavor. This top quality organic tea is aromatic and exceptionally flavorful, producing a refreshing infusion that is great both hot and cold. Enjoy Peppermint on its own, with a little honey, or as a base for your next cocktail or mock-tail. This tea is a product of the USA.

3. Hibiscus Herbal Tea

Our hibiscus tea consists of large parts of the dried flower, not a lot of broken pieces, which makes for an extra flavorful cup. This tea brews into a delightfully tart stand-alone tea, and also makes a nice addition to other teas (try it with lemonade for a thirst-quenching treat in summer!)

Herbal tea vs. rooibos: what's the difference?

Herbal tea and rooibos are both caffeine-free teas. Rooibos is a type of herbal tea made from a plant native to South Africa. Unlike some other herbal teas, rooibos is known for its full body, which is similar to that of a black tea. Rooibos is naturally caffeine-free, so we often recommend it to tea drinkers who are looking to cut back on caffeine but who still want a robust, full-bodied tea.
