Tea herbs are used to infuse loose leaf tea, or brew up some herbal tea. Typically herbal teas are made for one of their medicinal attributes making them medicinal tea. There are many recipes for different herbal teas on the internet today. What is more difficult to find is a great supplier of herbs once you have begun to make your own blends.
Here are the top things we look for when buying herbs for herbal tea blending:
1. Is the herb Certified Organic?
2. Are different quantities of the herb available?
3. Do I get a discount for ordering in bulk?
4. What are your shipping rates?
5. How long for my tea herbs to arrive?
These are our top 5 questions and we have found a couple of suppliers that have been able to meet our criteria. However none of them turned out to be the local health food store! So if you are looking to make the best herbal tea you can our advice to you is to do your research. There are some pretty shotty suppliers of herbs out there. One product we had purchased was over 50% filler.... needless to say we asked for a refund.
Remember to store your herbs in a sealed container in a dark place. Sunlight and moisture will destroy the integrity and medicinal properties of your herbs.
