Tea Talk: All About Tisanes AKA Herbal Teas

Tea Talk: All About Tisanes AKA Herbal Teas

We've written about the world of true teas already (if you missed it, it's a must-read!), but for a quick refresher: true teas come from the plant Camellia sinensis and include Black, Oolong, and Green.

Today, let's introduce tea’s cool hippy aunt: the tisane. You might not have been formally introduced, but trust us — you’ve definitely met.

Also known as herbal tea, tisanes are made from the leaves, bark, roots, flowers, or fruit of a stunningly wide variety of plants. If you brew it like tea but it’s not Camellia sinensis, it’s a tisane. Chamomile, Peppermint, and Ginger are some of the most popular tisanes, but that’s just the start of a wildly flavorful journey of brewable herbs and spices.

Pick Your Potion: Tisanes for Every Mood

We carry standalones like tangy Hibiscus, sunny Lemongrass, and floral Chrysanthemum as well as house-crafted blends like zesty Copper Lemon and sweet, earthy Mystic Licorice

If you're craving the body and flavor of true tea, minus the caffeine, go for Rooibos or Honeybush

Looking to try something more unique? Try our sharp and heady Huacatay, relaxing Damiana, or Butterfly Pea Flower that brews up electric blue and changes color with a splash of lemon.

All About That Base

Tisanes also make excellent bases for simple syrups, vinegars, infused spirits, and ice pops!
