Herbal Teas Now Available at HolleyOak!
Herbal teas are more than just an alternative to black tea or coffee; they are magical potions that can soothe sore throats, alleviate headaches, and calm your nerves after a stressful day. They offer healing for the heart, warmth in winter, and coolness in summer, with just a simple addition of boiling water.
Herbal teas have been used for thousands of years for their medicinal and healing properties, offering a range of flavors from delicious to less palatable. When steeped in boiling water, herbs release their beneficial components, aiding in digestion, relieving stress, improving sleep, treating colds and flu, addressing skin problems, supporting women’s health, and even acting as aphrodisiacs.
How Medicinal Teas Heal
The healing properties of herbs are released when steeped in boiling water. The leaves, flowers, seeds, and roots release their magical compounds that are well-known for their health benefits. These teas are quick, cost-effective, and easy to make, with pleasant tastes and benefits for the digestive system. Many are safe for children, pregnant women, and even pets.
Decoctions and Infusions
There are two main types of medicinal teas: decoctions and infusions.
- Decoctions are made from tougher parts of the plant, like bark, roots, twigs, seeds, or berries, simmered in boiling water.
- Infusions are made from softer leaves, flowers, and aerial parts of the plant, steeped in boiled water for 30 minutes to overnight.
