Teas for the Spirit and the Body (and taste buds)









How do you choose a tea to drink? On their website, Yogi Teas suggest you choose by either Mood, Flavor or Purpose. An interesting idea and you might want to take a look and see what you decide. There are more than 50 Yogi Teas, each one a discovery and sure to please.

But let’s concentrate on the Flavor and Taste. The Sweet Thai Delight Tea is just that—a delight of a tea with natural coconut and butterscotch flavors. The result is reminiscent of Chai Spice tea but then again different. Have it plain or add milk and perhaps sweetener to enhance the flavor. The Echinacea  Tea has organic Lemon flavor and natural Cinnamon, Cardamom and Ginger Oils for a balanced intriguing and refreshing drink. The Green Tea Goji Berry says that it is naturally invigorating and with Organic Cherry, Blueberry, Raspberry  Flavors, and Natural Lotus Flower Flavor your eyes will be opened.

Yogi Tea bags come individually wrapped with a tag that offers inspiring thoughts—for instance: “Strength does not lie in what you have. It lies in what you can give.” The Yogi Tea Collection takes tea beyond a simple beverage and into a way of living. There are  organic and herbal teas that are grounded in ancient wisdom and in a simple, natural way of living. Whether you want to jump start the day, be a part of  or recover from physical activity, calm the mind and clarify thoughts or revive the spirit and reflect on the world, there's a Yogi Tea to meet that need. And, each one tastes deliciously intriguing.

Dessert Teas Deserving of Attention





Yearning for dessert but want something as light as possible? Here are three cozy, comforting and at the same time, sweetly satisfying teas from The Republic of Tea. One, Coconut Cocoa Tea allows you the pleasure of a sweet drink with the rich, exotic taste of coconut and chocolate to produce a thick, naturally sweet, tropical cup. The delicious taste of both cocoa and carob is a beguiling, low-calorie cup of dessert. Coconut Cocoa Herb Tea has trace amounts of caffeine.

Have a craving for something very chocolate but want to feel guiltless the next morning? How about Double Dark Chocolate Maté tea? This warm wonder is antioxidant-rich, organic, roasted Yerba Maté blended with organic dark cocoa powder in a guilt-free, full-bodied dessert tea.

Another choice might be Dream by the Fire Tea—as wonderful as its name. This Cinnamon Vanilla Herb Tea blends sweet vanilla and warm cinnamon with caffeine-free rooibos. This is a delicious soulful blend perfect for an evening cup.

What is Rooibos (ROY-boss)? -- It's a Red tea indigenous to South Africa and is bursting with polyphenois and flavonoids, which may help protect the body from free-radicals that weaken natural defenses.
