Beyond the cup

Tulsi — known as 'The Queen of Herbs' in Ayurveda — meets hibiscus and elderberry for a stress-relief tea with antioxidant depth. Traditionally used for tension, mental fatigue, and building resilience over time. The tart hibiscus and sweet orange peel make this one easy to love. Brew 1–2 tsp, steep 5–7 minutes. Best as a daily habit — adaptogens work best with consistency.

What’s in it

Every herb in the blend, and where to read about it on its own.

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Orange Peel

    Citrus sinensis

    Previously dismissed as 'just citrus,' orange peel contains hesperidin — a flavanone with genuine anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular evidence — plus polymethoxyflavones that show remarkable metabolic activity in preclinical studies. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, aged tangerine peel (chen pi) is one of the most prescribed herbs....

    Bright, citrusy, slightly bitter, aromatic

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Hibiscus

    Hibiscus sabdariffa

    The tart red one, and the ingredient whose colour is the point: those anthocyanins make a cup that is genuinely ruby, not brown. Hibiscus has been studied more than almost any other herbal infusion, and unusually the studies used the tea itself rather than an...

    Tart, cranberry-like, fruity, deeply colored

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Tulsi (Holy Basil)

    Ocimum tenuiflorum

    Sacred in Hinduism and central to Ayurvedic medicine for over 3,000 years, tulsi is classified as a rasayana — an herb that nourishes the whole person. Modern research identifies it as a genuine adaptogen: multiple human trials show significant reductions in stress, anxiety, and fatigue...

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Elderberry

    Sambucus nigra

    The dark berry of the cold season in European tradition — elderberry syrup is one of those things a grandmother made. Its anthocyanins are the same class of pigment as hibiscus's, which is the chemistry behind how often the two are blended. One honest note...

    Deep berry, slightly tart, earthy undertones, wine-like when concentrated

  • Fruit · Caffeine-free

    Currant

    Ribes spp. (see note)

    The label says only currants, which is genuinely ambiguous, and this profile will not pretend otherwise. The word covers two unrelated things: Ribes berries — black, red and white currants, which are what a fruit tea usually means — and Zante currants, which are small...

    Tart and deep if Ribes; sweet and raisin-like if dried grape — which is exactly why the label matters

Good for

For keeping well

  • Tulsi — holy basil — traditionally used in Ayurveda as a daily adaptogen, taken to help the body cope with stress
  • Pomegranate and tulsi are both well studied for their polyphenols
  • Fruity, peppery and naturally caffeine-free
  • The daily cup, revered in Ayurveda as 'the incomparable one'

These teas are foods, sold as such. Nothing on this page is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

What it goes with

Pair with our Cinnamon Sticks or Cinnamon Ground for a warming cup that adds blood sugar support — steady blood sugar means steadier energy and mood. Add a pinch of Black Pepper Ground to help your body absorb more of the tulsi's active compounds.

Always handy

I use dillweed often. This dill is fresh and has a nice aroma. I use it in marinades, salad dressings, and on fish. Good stuff.
