Recovery Tea

A tea designed to restore the body’s natural balance after strenuous athletic activity or illness (whether the result of a hangover or blameless sickness we wont judge, only seek to alleviate).

A beautiful blend of our Japanese Hojicha Roasted Green Tea from Uji and our Chinese Peony White Tea from the mountains of Fujian.

Tea has, of course, been used as a medicine for many thousands of years - rich in polyphenol antioxidants. These lovely leaves also offer gentle stimulation to aid concentration.

To boost the restorative effects we have added pure herbs; Ginger from the foothills of the Himalayas and our Wild Rooibos from the UNESCO World heritage site in the Cedarberg Mountains of South Africa.  Rooibos has long been used as a natural hydrator as well as being rich in minerals including calcium, magnesium and potassium.  Himalayan Ginger, from the entirely organic state of Sikkim, relieves nausea and has anti-inflammatory properties. 

Together they create a graciously gentle, effective and lovely panacea.

We suggest adding a drop of honey or maple syrup and a grain of sea salt if you are very dehydrated to help restore the electrolytes needed to re-hydrate. 

Cost per cup based on 2g of tea per 150ml of water and 2 infusions.
