A cup of tea may not change the world…but it can change the way you see your day.
We will often prepare medicinal custom organic personalized tea blends for our patients from our wide selection of dried organic bulk herbs and powders. These blends reflect the scientific research, combined with the gentleness of traditional botanical medicine, to bring the healing properties of these plant allies.
These are the Original Blends from Passiflora Cafe, Tea Room and Herbal Shoppe that contain all organic ingredients and are prepared in small batches. They naturally and gently soothe away life’s stress on the body, support immunity, re-balance and support healthful sleep patterns (depending upon the intention in designing the blend). As an “added bonus'', they all taste great!
To Prepare:
To Prepare:Brew 2 to 3 teaspoons of tea in 8 ounces of hot water. Let steep for at least 5 minutes, but for medicinal qualities, as much as 20 to 30 minutes, to taste. French presses are wonderful but so are metal infusers. In blends that include a lot of Roots or Barks, ideally start the blend in cold water and slow simmer for 20 to 30 minutes and then strain.
