Upgrade your list of beverage offerings with Davidson's organic tulsi rooibos chai herbal loose leaf tea! Adapted from organic tulsi from North India and rooibos from South Africa, this naturally caffeine-free herbal tea is intended to soothe its drinker while delivering a flavorful burst of aromatic spices. In India, tulsi is regularly referred to as the "the Elixir of Life" or "the Holy Basil," since it is a sacred herb from the basil family that carries a subtle, minty taste. This tea contains three different kinds of tulsi: Rama, Krishna, and Vana. Tulsi is rich in antioxidants and is believed to help bring balance to the body, mind, and spirit. In addition to tulsi leaf and rooibos, this herbal tea is packed with other organic ingredients, including cinnamon, licorice root, cloves, and ginger. Once brewed, this light tea exhibits a subtle, minty flavor profile that is sweetened with traditional chai spices, giving the tea a spicy cinnamon aftertaste. With its health benefits and amazing flavor, this herbal tea is destined to become a popular choice on your beverage menu!
When steeped, this tulsi rooibos chai tea produces light and airy, caffeine-free herbal tea extract with an amber-colored tint. The lack of caffeine in this tea makes it the perfect nightcap before bed. Tulsi tea is also incredibly versatile; serve this tea unsweetened or allow your customers to add sugar cubes and milk to achieve a sweet, creamy flavor. For a colder alternative, chill your brewed tea and transform it into a refreshing iced tea beverage or use the cold tea to craft an alcoholic drink like a tulsi tonic. The options are endless since loose leaf tea allows you to create hand-crafted teas and build a one-of-a-kind tea experience. Use loose leaf tea to gain control over how large of a batch you brew and how strong the tea tastes. If you like a more intense flavor, include a larger tea-to-water ratio, and if you are seeking a more subtle flavor profile, use fewer tea leaves in your brew. In addition to giving you more control over the flavor and size of your tea, loose leaf gives you more control over your environmental impact, helping you cut back on waste by eliminating tea bags.
