What Is Turmeric?
Turmeric is a spice with excellent health benefits. It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine as a medicinal herb, and recent studies have shown that it can effectively treat a wide range of conditions.
Turmeric is high in antioxidants, which can help to protect your body from damage caused by free radicals. It also has potent anti-inflammatory properties, which can help to reduce pain and swelling.
Turmeric is generally safe to consume, but it can cause side effects in some people. These side effects are usually mild and include stomach upset, diarrhea, and nausea. If you experience any severe side effects, stop taking turmeric and speak to your doctor.

Drinking Turmeric Tea - Flavor
Turmeric has a strong, earthy taste that some people find unpalatable. If you don't like the taste of turmeric, you can add it to food that has strong flavors, such as curries or stews.
You can also shop for teas with turmeric, that have ingredients that offset the flavor (and make it taste great!)
Drinking turmeric tea is worth overcoming the flavor (if you're not a fan). The health benefits of turmeric make this herb extremely popular, and is included in several (rather delicious) blends including Turmeric Ginger Mate, Lemon Turmeric, and more!
How Much Caffeine is in Turmeric Tea?
Turmeric is free of caffeine. However, turmeric is often sold in herbal blends, which may contain other caffeinated ingredients.
How Do You Make Turmeric Tea?
Turmeric tea in loose-leaf form is simple to brew. If you have one of our infusers or our natural paper tea bags, all you need to do is portion one teaspoon of turmeric tea and steep in hot water for approximately 5-7 minutes.
Be sure to consider the base of your turmeric tea when steeping. If it's an herbal tea, you can steep it longer than a black tea, which grows bitter if steeped for too long. Lastly, many turmeric teas are great with raw honey!
