Heaven of Tea

As the weather warms and the gardens begin to bloom with delicate flowers, I await the fresh produce and batch of herbs that will soon follow. Herbs are an amazing ingredient in any tea blend and truly create a most fabulous sensory experience. Above all, herbal tea offers wonderful health benefits as they are chock full of antioxidants, such as Vitamin C, and are naturally caffeine free. These wonder herbs can soothe a stomach and even calm your nerves.

Swiss Vervaine Melange Herbal Tea is a truly comforting tea that aids in digestion thanks to ginger and peppermint. It’s rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to help you body stay in tiptop shape and hopefully avoid the common cold lingering nearby. This tasty tea is a blend of Vervaine, apple bits, carrot bits, orange peel, ginger bits, marshmallow leaves, peppermint, green Rooibos, candied papaya, rosebuds, raisins, mallow blossoms, passion flower petals and peach bits.

I highly recommend sipping on this soothing blend after a long day. Just heat water to 208 degrees (just boiling) and steep for 5-6 minutes. You can calm your body and mind while you treat your senses to this amazing blend of fruit and herbs.

And if you’re looking for an herbal experience with a little more kick, then you should fill your cup with Azteca Fire Herbal Tea. This spicy herbal treat is a blend of Crushed cocoa, apple, strawberry, chocolate pieces, safflowers and crushed red chili pods. While sipping on this traditional blend and spicing up your cup, you will also be treating your body to a nice dose of vitamins and minerals, especially Vitamin C. Steep this herbal concoction for 5-6 minutes with water that is just boiling (208 degrees).

So as the weather warms, make room in your fridge for local fruits and veggies to munch on while you sip on an herbal blend.
