Herbal teas

There is a number of herbal tea varieties, one of those are the flower tea. These teas are caffeine free alternatives and offer various benefits. Herbal tea contains no traditional tea but is made from one or a blend of more than one other plant.

Herbal teas are a natural solution for people who want to get the protective health benefits of herbs in their daily diet but don’t feel comfortable taking handfuls of herbs as capsules, and rarely use more than the standard herbs like garlic and basil for cooking.

Herbal teas are obtained by infusion of fresh or dry plant material. Popular traditional herbal teas are made from Roselle, chrysanthemum, safflower, and bael fruit.
