Choosing the Right Herbal Tea
-
Yummy!
Each tea is a different blend of 25 herbs, each with its own host of flavors and benefits.
Because we grow and dry the herbs ourselves, the flavor (and medicinal qualities) is noticeably different from most other herbal teas. Instead of a flat or artificial taste, you’ll experience a full, smooth cup with natural character.
The descriptions that appear most often in customer reviews are: Fresh; Smooth; Strong; Flavorful; and Distinct, True-To-Plant.
-
Angel is the perfect introduction to herbal teas - floral, uplifting, refreshing and slightly sweet. It’s our best selling tea and won the Chicago International Tea Festival’s award for Best Herbal. Makes the best iced herbal tea too!

Yes, all of our teas and herbs are 100% caffeine free.
Herbal teas (tisanes), by definition, do not contain any caffeine-containing herbs like the green tea plant (Camellia sinensis) or Yerba Mate (Ilex paraguariensis.)
Plants containing caffeine don’t grow in Wisconsin, and we aim to grow all of the herbs in our herbal teas.
-
All our teas are 100% herbs - no “natural flavors”, fillers, or sweeteners.
You can find the ingredients listed on each product page in the second photo, along with other useful information.
Most Common Questions about Herbal Tea
-
Our herbs are almost always harvested last summer & fall, so they are as fresh as if they were from your own garden.
We only grow enough herbs for 1 year of tea, so when we run out, it’s out until the next growing season.
-
Loose leaf tea retains its freshness and flavor better than the powdered herbs in teabags. Being whole and less processed allows you to see what you’re getting.
Most tea brands outsource herbs from all over the world and pulverize the herbs into powder for teabags. Our herbs are kept whole, preserving the quality, potency, flavor, and soul of the herbs.
You’ll find Sacred Blossom Farm tea tastes fuller, feels more alive, and radiates the essence of the herbs as they were meant to be.
We grow or wild harvest almost all the herbs in our tea on our Wisconsin farm.
-
Loose leaf tea is easy to brew.
Step 1. Heat water until it’s just about to boil.
Step 2. Put 1 Tbsp (a large pinch) of herbs in a tea strainer, and place it in your mug.
Step 3. Pour the water over the herbs and wait 8 minutes. A longer steep will give a stronger, full-bodied tea (15 minutes or more.)
Step 4. Remove the strainer and enjoy.
(The steeped herbs can be re-steeped later the same day if stored in the fridge.) -
We make iced herbal tea all summer long on the farm. See our favorite recipes for iced herbal tea here: www.sacredblossomfarm.com/iced-tea
-
Our tea isn’t certified organic, but there have been no chemicals used in over 25 years on our Wisconsin farm, where nearly all the herbs are grown. We use proactive measures to build soil and ecological health like long crop rotations, minimal tillage, cover cropping, interplanting, and rotational grazing. Take a look at our short farm tour video and contact me if you have any questions!
-
Our teas are fresh for three years from their packaging date. The “best by” date is stamped on each package. Nearly every tea you’ll buy from us was produced in the last growing season - you can only get fresher tea if you grow it yourself!
-
Herbal tea stays freshest when stored in an airtight container, away from sunlight, heat, and humidity.
You can:
reseal it tightly in its original bag, or
transfer it to a glass jar with a lid
Our packaging was designed to keep your tea fresh for years when stored in a cool, dry place like a pantry.
When stored properly, your herbal tea will stay fresh for several years.
-
Yes, drinking several cups of herbal tea everyday is generally considered safe. In fact, herbal teas contain many beneficial compounds which can boost health when drunk regularly. Though it is best to rotate teas every few weeks to avoid mineral imbalances.
Consult your doctor if you have kidney problems or are on medications.
