February is American Heart Month! In the spirit of Heart Month and as part of our quest to promote wellness through our all-natural teas, we’re highlighting some specific teas that are especially great for both warming your heart and supporting your everyday good health.

The common ingredient in each of the teas described below is hawthorn. In centuries past, many forms of traditional medicine believed that hawthorn berries offered cardiovascular and circulatory benefits.  In our teas, hawthorn provides a tart and slightly sweet (almost jam-like) flavor without adding any calories. Try one of these varieties to savor a bit of hawthorn yourself!

Black Cherry Berry Herbal Tea contains hawthorn, but also has hibiscus, rosehips, roasted chicory, and blackberry leaves. This ruby-red blend is sure to excite the berry lover in you.

Sleepytime® Herbal Tea was one of our very first blends to feature hawthorn. It’s America’s most popular herbal tea for a reason – the calming blend of chamomile, spearmint and lemongrass is relaxing whenever you need to unwind a bit.

Take just one sip of our Tangerine Orange Zinger® Herbal Tea and you’ll quickly realize how appropriate the name “Zinger” really is. Hawthorn adds to an almost marmalade-like taste that  will surprise you with its freshness!

Finally, hawthorn helps bring out the flavors of the country in our Country Peach Passion® Herbal Tea. With every caffeine-free sip, you’ll feel just like you’ve bitten into a fresh Georgia peach.
