Understanding the Ingredients: I wanted to capture cozy in a cup. So, what is cozy? To me, cozy is feeling a deep sense of calmness and contentment. So, I brought in PASSIONFLOWER to calm the racing mind and LINDEN flower to soothe an anxious tummy or heart. I then considered the delicious and gentle calming effects of CHAMOMILE and LEMONBALM and knew they must be included as well. Cozy is also a giddiness… you want to smile and don’t even know why. I knew the blend needed an uplifting quality so I brought in sweet ORANGE, HIBISCUS and SUMAC berry for their natural citrus mood enhancement. Cozy is feeling well cared for and nourished. You feel safe and well. I invited RED ROOIBOS because of its incredibly high levels of vitamins, minerals and nutrients. Cozy is feeling a sense of familiar you just can’t put your finger on. I considered what may bring that to the cup, and almost nothing can beat what seasonal spices can do for bringing that sense of familiarity to a time and space. One last touch I just couldn't leave out is the unexplainable magic about a cozy moment. Bay leaf aroma speaks out to the otherworldly. Call the fae, call your guides and ancestors, call your highest self and knowing. Allow a little magic in your life.
Not your ordinary teabag: Our hand-made teabags are large since they are a full portion to provide you with the intended benefit and desired support. Each one may be re-steeped several times throughout the day. The brewed tea may also be saved in the fridge over night and enjoyed chilled the following day. They are each handcrafted in perfect measurement within a microplastic free teabag and hand stapled with a stainless steel staple. This is slow craft herbalism with care.
{10 pack is 2.5oz and 3 pack is .75oz }
Loose leaf or bagged are both created in very small batches in our woodland teahouse from thoughtfully sourced ingredients and professionally formulated by Leah, owner and clinical herbalist.
HOW TO BREW:
Bagged: Use 1 tea bag per 16 oz of 190 ºF water. Begin drinking when temperature is comfortable but never remove tea bag. Add more hot water once the cup is finished for a second or third infusion for full benefit.
Loose Leaf: Use 1.5 Tb per 16 oz of 190 ºF water and steep a minimum of 15 minutes. Ideally pouring off bits of the tea as the rest continues to steep. I really enjoy placing loose leaf in a French press, pouring off the tea to drink, and recovering with more water for a full day infusion of full benefit.
The longer these herbs steep the better and more potent the herbal infusion will be. Add sweetness if you prefer.
Earth first packaging: Our packaging is intentionally minimal and environmentally conscious. The kraft bags holding our teas are 100% recycled and backyard compostable. Our teabags are compostable, as well as the herbs inside, once the staple is removed. They love to return to the earth. We are constantly seeking ways we can do better and lessen our impact.
