Nurture
Nurture is Leisa’s favourite and her go-to blend! Made up of licorice, cinnamon, ginger, and calendula, this blend is perfect for any time of the day or night. Named for its nurturing warmth, it is a wonder for digestion and your immune system and a comforting, restorative blend that will also aid with stress relief. Caffeine free.
Digest
Our Digest blend is formulated with marshmallow, spearmint, fennel, meadowsweet, and ginger, all known for their gut health and digestion benefits. Enjoy this blend after a meal or in the evening to soothe mild discomfort and promote digestion.
Native Immunity
Our Native Immunity blend is designed to support your immune system with a range of herbs that encourage immune health with Australian native and grown ingredients, including lemon myrtle and peppercorn (Australian native), and coriander seeds, elderflowers, and echinacea (Australian grown).
Woman
Our Woman tea blend, featuring rose petals as a symbol of love, has been designed to nurture and comfort, encouraging you to honour yourself and take care.
Shatavari increases your happy hormones, especially serotonin and dopamine, and relaxes your central nervous system to help regulate emotions, it also enhances female libido. Licorice supports adrenals when you find yourself overcommitted and overworked, while also supporting a rattled nervous system and gut. Nettle is naturally high in iron and supports you by increasing energy reserves. The combination of lavender and rose petals promotes a restful sleep and supports a healthy mood.
Surrender
The Surrender blend includes rose petals, passionflower, chamomile, tulsi, and meadowsweet. It’s a calming blend, designed to assist with sleep and reducing stress and anxiety. As you enjoy the floral flavours of this feel-good tea, you can remember the importance of looking after and truly loving yourself. Caffeine free.
Mojo
Are you lacking Mojo?
Our Mojo tea blend contains a good dose of the herb damiana. Historically, damiana was used as an aphrodisiac, hence its use in this tea. Damiana is also used to treat headaches, sluggish digestion, and for boosting and maintaining mental and physical stamina. It’s a vitality booster, as is the chaga mushroom in this Mojo blend. Hawthorn and ginger have been included to aid circulation and strengthen the heart. It’s an earthy grounding oomph of a blend and can be used by both men and women.
Chai Love
Our version of the classic black chai, Chai Love is blended using ceylon black tea, star anise, cinnamon, ginger, cardamon, black pepper, and cloves. Drinking chai is good for digestion and can aid headaches; it’s also a very soothing, warming, and comforting option.
Dandy Chai
Our caffeine-free Dandy Chai blend is made up of roasted dandelion root, star anise, cinnamon, ginger, cardamon, black pepper, and cloves. A great option if you love the taste of chai but are looking for something free from caffeine. Dandelion in particular is great for liver health, and this blend generally will support good digestion, hormone regulation, and skin clarity.
Skin
