Herbal tea has been consumed by humans for longer than we can imagine, with the earliest record in 3000BC. Whether it be green tea in Japan or turmeric tea in India, early society and medicine was usually based around a hot beverage. As the weather starts to get cooler, we all start looking at what tea to add to our assortment to keep us warm through the upcoming months. With so many types of tea to chose from, with such a large array of medicinal benefits and tasty flavours, it can be hard to decide which one is for you – so we made an easy herbal tea guide! After talking to a few friends, I realised that most people don’t really know which herbal tea is right for them – so I thought I’d make an easy guide for our health community featuring our favourite teas from Planet Organic!
