Each sip is steeped in quality, delivering a delicious taste experience that’s coupled with fast-acting support. The new teas can be sipped on their own or enjoyed with other Gaia Herbs products, as every package offers suggested pairings should consumers wish to reap the benefits of herbal support in different ways.

“In today’s hectic lifestyle, Americans are busier than ever before and while we rarely make time for self-care, the ritual of tea making helps to do just that,” said Todd King, vice president of marketing for Gaia Herbs. “Each of our new teas incorporate unique and innovative formulations and, similar to all of our other Gaia Herbs products, infused with potency and full traceability through our MeetYourHerbs platform. Teas provide a great entry point for those looking to start their journey of wellness and incorporate herbs into their daily routine.”

To achieve the full benefits of each distinctive and nourishing tea, the bag should be steeped and covered in a mug for 10 minutes before drinking. Committed to stewardship of our natural resources, as much as one’s health, Gaia has designed its teas bags without the use of staples or glue, and they are also entirely compostable – including the tags and strings. Details on the new herbal tea varieties include:

  • Essential Tulsi blends both Tulsi leaf and essential oil of Holy Basil for a fragrant, rich taste that’s noticeably different. Earthy and calming, this herbal tea can help one feel centered as it supports a healthy response to the stresses of life.*
  • Liver Cleanse has a pleasant minty taste, and supports the liver daily in two of its most prominent roles: natural detoxification and digestive support.* The tea contains Dandelion and Artichoke, which are traditional purifying herbs, while Chinese Skullcap promotes a healthy inflammatory response and Schisandra provides antioxidant support.*
  • Organic Hibiscus is a delightfully floral tea that is sure to brighten any day. Naturally sweet-tasting, Organic Hibiscus has a tangy kick and a light citrus fragrance from Mandarin Orange peel essential oil. Delicious either served hot or over ice, studies have shown that Hibiscus tea supports healthy blood sugar levels and healthy cholesterol levels (already within normal ranges).*
  • Sinus Comfort combines familiar, comforting herbs to soothe both the senses and sinuses.* The aroma of Rosemary leaf and Sage are unveiled upon the first sip, followed by Oregano and Thyme. Cinnamon essential oil and Ginger add spice, while Holy Basil and Green Tea balance this robust tea.

Essential Tulsi, Liver Cleanse, Organic Hibiscus, and Sinus Comfort are sold in 16-bag packages for an SRP of $5.99. Gaia Herbs products are sold through national and independently owned health food stores across the U.S. as well as through trusted online retail sites and GaiaHerbs.com.
