June's Teas of the Month are here!
Hi tea lovers,
This month we want to introduce you to a couple of our “Wellness Teas”, and we promise it’s not because you look unwell. (You look fantastic, by the way – is that a new shirt?) No, wellness teas are made with ingredients specifically chosen with health in mind, be that calming you down before bed or waking you up from a post-lunch food coma. “Functional beverages” – that’s a little industry speak for ya – have gotten popular in recent years, but nobody is going to drink any of them if they don’t taste good. We were up for that challenge, and we knew you tea drinkers might be up to try them even if we didn’t promise super-human strength, or some such claim the FDA wouldn’t have gone for anyway.
“Organic Energize” and “Organic Detox” are here to transform ordinary water (hot or cold - read on for more details!) into tasty, healthful drinks you might wish you had met sooner. Cheers to you!


Organic Energize
Here’s a tea we crafted to give you a boost – physically and mentally. Let’s peruse the ingredients panel for details: the base of this tea is whole leaf green tea leaves, because you know us; we’re not just going to throw chopped up tea leaves of questionable quality into a bag and mask that taste with a bunch of flavoring. The amount of caffeine in green tea is just enough (read: not too much) to prod you into motion and focus your thoughts. The next ingredient is organic ginger, an anti-inflammatory that reduces weakness and fatigue. We added in some natural flavor and orange oil to give the tea its fruity edge, and finally organic ginseng that is shown to help with concentration and lower stress.
Steep like you would any other green tea, although we also love this tea poured over ice (brew to double-strength so the ice doesn’t dilute that delicious flavor).

Organic Detox
The word “detox” gets thrown around a lot, so we want to be clear about how we’re using it: to describe restoring and improving your body, perhaps after (or during) a tough workout, or even after a big night out. With that in mind, our Organic Detox is a caffeine-free herbal tea made with a laundry list of ingredients for restoring electrolytes (hydration without calories from sugar!), reducing inflammation, boosting antioxidants and supporting your digestion. Is it a coincidence that they all taste terrific when blended? Nope, definitely not – tasty wellness tea is practically an art form! In our fictional “Best Tasting Detox Tea” award speech we’d thank spearmint, cardamom seed, cinnamon, ginger, fennel, rooibos, hibiscus, clove, star anise, and… the orchestra is playing us off the stage.
Try tossing a sachet into a bottle of water – cold or room temp – and enjoy this flavor on your next outing… maybe to a fictional awards show?! (It would also taste great on your next errand run.)
