Embrace Spring with Organic and Therapeutic Teas

As the chill of winter fades and the vibrant colours of spring emerge, it’s the perfect time to refresh your tea routine. The warmer weather invites us to explore the delightful world of iced teas, offering a refreshing twist on our favourite therapeutic and organic blends. At Organics for Lily, we believe that every season brings unique opportunities to nourish our bodies and minds, and spring is no exception.

Spring’s mild temperatures and blooming landscapes create an ideal backdrop for enjoying iced tea. Whether you’re lounging in your garden, having a picnic, or simply taking a moment to relax, a glass of iced tea can be both invigorating and soothing. Our loose-leaf herbal teas, carefully crafted by a naturopath, are perfect for creating delicious and healthy iced beverages.

Benefits of Therapeutic and Organic Teas

Staying hydrated is crucial, especially as temperatures rise. Iced herbal teas provide a flavourful and refreshing way to maintain hydration without the added sugars and artificial ingredients found in many commercial drinks.

Our teas are blended with nature’s finest herbs and botanicals, each selected for its therapeutic properties. Ingredients like chamomile, peppermint, and hibiscus can help support overall wellbeing.

Tea drinking is also a wonderful practice for cultivating mindfulness. By focusing on the sensory experience of brewing and sipping tea, you can create a moment of calm and presence in your day. This mindful approach can extend to other areas of your life, enhancing your overall sense of peace and balance.

Creating Your Perfect Iced Tea

Making iced tea is simple and rewarding. Here’s a quick guide to get you started:

  • Choose Your Tea: Select your favourite Organics for Lily blend. Our herbal infusions like Refresh Me, Just Peppermint, or Cool Vanilla are excellent choices for iced tea.
  • Brew and Cool: Brew the tea as you normally would, using hot water to extract the full flavour and benefits of the herbs. Once brewed, let it cool to room temperature.
  • Chill and Serve: Pour the cooled tea into a pitcher and refrigerate until cold. Serve over ice and garnish with fresh herbs, citrus slices, or berries for an extra touch of springtime freshness.

 

Spring is a season of renewal and growth, making it the perfect time to embrace the benefits of therapeutic and organic teas. Whether enjoyed hot or iced, our teas offer a delicious way to support your health, wellbeing, and mindfulness. So, take a moment to savour the flavours of spring with Organics for Lily, and let each sip bring you closer to nature and inner peace.

Rebalance me Ice Tea Recipe

With the weather heating up its the perfect time to get your favourite ice tea brewing.  One of the favs here at OFL is the Rebalance me ice tea and here is how you brew…

 

JUST ENOUGH FOR ONE

1. Place 1 heaped teaspoon of rebalance me tea leaves into a tea strainer.

2. Place strainer in a tea cup and fill cup 1/3 full with boiling water (enough to cover tea leaves).

3. Let tea leaves steep in water for 20-30 minutes and allow to cool.

4. Once completely cooled, add 3-5 sliced strawberries, ice cubes and top up with cold water if needed, garnish with a mint leaf and enjoy!

COLD BREW ON THE GO

This recipe can also be used for our Tea Bottles

  • Small 300ml Tea bottle use 1 heaped teaspoon
  • Medium 400ml Tea bottle use 2 teaspoons
  • Large 500ml Tea bottle use 2 heaped teaspoons

Just remember the tea bottle will take a while to cool, so brew well in advance or brew in a tea cup (as per above) then transfer into your bottle.

LETS PARTY

To make a brew for your next party in a fancy drink dispenser use 50g (1 box) of tea leaves in a medium size saucepan, fill with boiling water place lid on and let steep for 30 minutes.  Remove lid and let cool for 10 minutes. Using a sieve of anything you have with small holes, strain tea into 6L drink dispenser.  Allow to cool.  Once cool, add ice, half a punnet of strawberries and 4 mint leaves.  Top up with cold water and enjoy…

 

Happy brewing Tea Lovers!
