I’m going to be reviewing a trio of caffeine free herbal teas from Two Leaves and a Bud today. It’s 5pm and I really don’t want caffeine coursing through my veins if I go to hot yoga tonight. The three teas are peppermint, chamomile and Pomi-Berry.
I’m starting with the Pomi-Berry first. The ingredients are organic: chamomile, lemon balm, lavender, apple, linden flowers, lemongrass, hibiscus, strawberries, raspberries and natural berry flavor. The tea is a nice smell of chamomile and berries. The color of the tea is brown with a red tones underneath. The tea tastes strongly of chamomile and apples! There is a hint of citrus and lemongrass on the end note. The taste is very mellow. I think this would be a good tea to drink while you’re camping. This tea is so down to earth and cozy, it’s like hug from your grandmother.
Next is the chamomile tea. This is every sick persons favourite. The ingredients are pure organic Egyptian chamomile flowers. The flower heads are left fully intact in the teabag. Many companies choose to use broken down versions of the flower heads. This tea is silky smooth, light and super gentle. I love their version of this classic herbal tea.
Finally we have the 100% organic peppermint tea. Peppermint is excellent for digestion, so after a heavy heavy meal this would be the tea to enjoy. This peppermint definitely has some body and kick to it. Some peppermint is thin and watery without much taste. The mintyness is akin to my mouthwash! Wow. It’s very nice. Talk about peppermint umami. I could really go for some chocolate right now to complement this cup!
