For centuries herbal teas have been doing wonders with their variety of herbs to take care of any ailments. There are herbal teas for almost anything such as lack of sleep and headaches. Teas are also relaxing and most can be enjoyed with a choice of hot or cold temperatures. There is an herbal tea for everyone! This list of herbal teas contains only the teas that I have personally tried and loved. I am positive you will love them too!
American Breakfast: Black Tea and Honey (Bigelow Brand)
This tasty drink is good hot or cold. It’s great fuel for in the mornings because it contains extra caffeine. This tea puts the spark right in me, because sleep just doesn’t happen sometimes. This drink has all natural ingredients like real tea extract. What’s even better is that it’s easy to find; even Walmart has it! I used to be a coffee addict in the mornings, but this tea really is better than coffee. If you want to spice up the flavor, this tea is great for adding additional flavors such as cherry syrup.
Celestial Seasonings: Sleepy Time Extra
This relaxing liquid comes in both original Sleepy Time and Sleepy Time Extra. I have tried both, but I prefer the Sleepy Time Extra because I can be hard to knock out. It is best at a hot temperature. This herbal tea is very soothing when I find myself having a hard time falling asleep. However, the box contains a warning that the company recommends the usage for adults only because it contains valerian (a natural sleep aid). This beverage contains additional ingredients of Chamomile, spearmint, lemongrass, etc (you can find more on the box). This herbal tea will have you winding down and ready for bed in no time!
Traditional Medicinals Throat Coat
Allergies are an absolute pain. Sore throats can be the worst. This Lemon Echinacea coats the irritated throat in a soothing liquid that can help ease the pain. This tea is best hot in order to gain the real effect. This herbal tea is caffeine free and contains all natural ingredients such as various roots, leaves, fruit peel, and bark. However, it is true that this tea has not been FDA approved, because it does not cure the sore throat. It does help soothe it. This Lemon Echinacea is one of the best treatment companions.
Twinings of London: Irish Breakfast
This caffeinated tea is not as strong in the energy boost as the American Breakfast, but it is a 100 percent pure black tea. It is a breakfast tea because it does help you get up and going. This liquid comes from places like Kenya and Indonesia. I believe this tea can be hot or cold, but I do prefer it hot. If you like strong black coffee, you will like this tea.
Celestial Seasonings: Honey Vanilla Chamomile
This non-caffeinated tea is a great companion when reading books or watching TV. When I need to sit back and relax during the day, this is the perfect tea for a break. It is flavorful in honey and vanilla. Its ingredients are all natural which is why it tastes so good!
