INFUSE – RELAX – ENJOY
Unlike black tea, herbal teas utilise specific plant parts, such as
flowers, roots, fruits, seeds, leaves and bark, chosen for their unique
health benefits. Herbal teas are an economical, light and refreshing
alternative to other drinks and are popular with health enthusiasts,
naturopaths and herbalists. Enjoying traditional herbal infusions is an
easy way to reconnect with the past and appreciate just how much nature
has to offer.
