Herbal teas are another example of infusion teas which are usually called tisanes. They, like all tisanes, are made from anything other than the leaves of an actual tea bush. Tisanes can be made from almost anything while herbal teas are most often made from fresh or dried flowers, leaves, seeds or roots. It’s pretty simple really, pour boiling water over what you like best and let it steep for a few minutes!
If you are using seeds or roots, often you would boil them for several minutes to extract the natural juices from them, and then strain the liquid into a cup, sweeten as desired and enjoy.
Many herbal teas are produced in tea bags these days which is nice because it makes the process of drinking an herbal much easier by saving you the straining part. User friendly - no fuss no muss as they say!
Herbs have been used as a drink and as medicines since the beginnings of civilization. Many medicinal properties have been attributed to herbs and some have been shown to work while others always seem to work despite a lack of scientifically based experimentation.
Some herbs are blended together with the hoped for results of soothing various ailments, from sore throats to upset stomachs to digestive problems. Some can help you relax and thus sleep better and others may boost your immune system.
It is a fact that many of our medicines today were synthesized from plants and scientists are still searching for new species of plants and flowers in the hope to find a cure for diseases for which there is no cure today.
One excellent known fact is that herbal teas are caffeine free and also very low in calories. Also many are produced 100% organically today, as Eco-Place’s teas are. They can also be drunk hot or cold, either way they are a delicious and refreshing drink and may help your health as well.
