Our Energise Tea is the perfect blend for when you need a quick pick-me-up. The caffeine in this mix comes from green tea — which in addition to its metabolism-boosting effects is rich in antioxidants and supports the nervous system. Yerba mate, which is traditionally used in South America as a coffee substitute, is complemented by ginger, Siberian ginseng, nettle leaf and lemongrass. The result is a warming, uplifting, and nourishing tea.
Ginger
Ginger root is an excellent circulatory tonic, a true antidote to cold hands and feet. It supports digestion and nutrient absorption. It has been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine to enhance the ‘fire’ in the body. Ginger is also a mild stimulant and is also known for its aphrodisiac qualities.
Green tea
Green tea is a popular coffee substitute due to its mild caffeine content, which makes it energising. Interestingly, it also contains an amino acid called l-theanine, which soothes anxiety and supports the nervous system. It is packed full of antioxidants and promotes longevity, making it an excellent and truly balanced pick-me-up.
Yerba mate
Yet another herb traditionally used as a coffee substitute, Yerba mate also contains a small amount of caffeine. It relieves fatigue, promotes alertness and wakefulness, and enhances cognitive performance.
Siberian ginseng
Siberian ginseng is a famous natural energy booster. It improves mental and physical performance and helps to protect against the effects of stress. It has been used to increase energy and vitality for millennia. It increases blood flow to the brain and improves memory, concentration and mental stamina. With its powerful anti-fatigue effect, Siberian ginseng increases endurance and the ability of the mitochondria in the cells to produce energy.
Nettle leaf
Nettle leaves are highly nutritious – they are rich in vitamins A and C and minerals, particularly iron, calcium, silica, magnesium and potassium. All of these nutrients are essential for the maintenance of vibrant health and vitality. Nettle also protects the gut lining from irritation and infection, stimulates liver and kidney function, relieves fluid retention and enhances the elimination of toxins via the urine.
Lemongrass
Lemongrass has a beautifully refreshing citrusy and earthy flavour. It uplifts the body and mind, has natural antimicrobial properties, and has been traditionally used to relieve inflammation. Lemongrass promotes digestive health and supports the nervous system.
This product contains ginger, green tea, yerba mate, Siberian ginseng, nettle leaf and lemongrass.
When to drink
We recommend drinking one cup after breakfast. In case you tend to feel lethargic during the afternoons, we recommend having one cup after lunch if needed. Do not take after mid-afternoon (i.e. around 2-3pm) to ensure it does not interfere with your sleep.
How often to drink
You can drink this tea daily, up to 3 cups per day.
How to make
Infuse one teaspoon of loose herbs in a cup of boiled water. Leave for 10-15 minutes, strain, cool and enjoy. We recommend covering the tea while it brews to ensure maximum potency and flavour. You can infuse the same serving of herbs twice in boiling water to make a second cup.
