Amazon Favorites for Herbs & Teas
Vegetable Glycerin, from Starwest Botanicals, is an organic, non-GMO soy-based glycerin I use for baking and tinctures (no soy protein remains after glycerin creation).
Organic Calendula Flowers (Calendula officinalis) from FGOrganics are vibrant and perfect for teas, herbal oils, and glycerites.
Organic Ginger Root (Zingiber officinale) from Elanen naturals has a rich, spicy aroma and a warming flavor. It’s perfect for all my tummy-soothing teas.
Organic Lavender Flowers (Lavandula angustifolia) from FGOrganics is highly aromatic, clean and fresh. Lovely for teas, glycerites, herbal steams, and foot soaks!
Organic Marshmallow Root (Althaea officinalis) from Elanen naturals has a delicately sweet flavor and provides a silky feel to teas. It’s very soothing to a dry mouth and throat. [She also has Organic Marshmallow Root Powder available.]
Organic Orange Peel (Citrus x sinensis) from Starwest Botanicals is my favorite Orange Peel and is one of my favorite ingredients in tea.
Organic Peppermint Leaf (Mentha x piperita) from Elanen naturals is fresh and minty. It’s beautiful in teas, herbal steams, simmer pots, and when powdered, lovely in a refreshing body scrub.
Organic Rose Petals (Rosa centifolia) from TooGood Botanics and Starwest Botanicals (1lb bag) are my favorite Rose Petals for tea, bath teas, foot soaks, herbal steams, and, when powdered, gentle scrubs. They are beautifully aromatic.
Organic Spearmint Leaf (Mentha spicata) from Anthony’s Goods is fresh and minty, and my favorite mint for tea.
Organic Tulsi (Holy Basil) blend of organic Vana, Rama & Krishna Tulsi from Organic India. Available in loose-leaf or bags.
Organic Breathe Tea from Elanen naturals is a tasty and supportive cough and cold care herbal tea.
Amazon Favorites for Tea Making Tools
Glass Mason Jar Pitchers are great for ensuring you always have a delicious refreshing iced herbal tea on hand!
Steeping Umbrellas are a fun way to keep all the goodness of your herbal tea contained while it’s steeping. These fit nicely over the top of the average mug.
Tea Strainer Basket from Vaincre is my choice for larger cups of tea. It’s fine mesh keeps even fine loose leaf tea contained. Easily holds a couple of tablespoons of tea.
Tea Strainers from Reinmoson, with their fine mesh, do a great job keeping even fine loose leaf tea contained. Holds one mounded teaspoon. (Love these for gift baskets.)
Borosilicate Tea Kettle/Carafe is great for when you want to make an entire pitcher of herbal tea. Works for both cold brew and hot brew.
