Do herbal teas contain caffeine?
Herbal teas are made from plants and botanicals that are not related to Camellia sinensis. They are naturally caffeine free. Our Chamomile Tea and Peppermint Tea are examples of herbal teas. BACK TO TOP How do I brew a perfect cup of tea? Good quality water and proper brewing time are essential for a flavorful cup of tea. • Start with a preheated pot or cup (simply fill your teapot or cup with very hot water and let it stand for a moment). • Use fresh cold water. In areas with poor tap water, use bottled or filtered water. Never use water from the hot water tap. Let the tap water run for a few seconds until it is quite cold; this ensures that the water is aerated (full of oxygen) to release the full flavor of the tea leaves. • Bring water to a rolling boil. Don’t let it boil too long, as it will boil away the flavor releasing oxygen and result in a flat tasting cup of tea. Pour boiling water on tea leaves or tea bag.
