Herbal Tea

“Herbal teas” are not officially “teas,” as they do not come from the camellia sinensis plant. It is catch-all term used to describe all non-caffeinated beverages made from the infusion of plants, spices, herbs, and fruits that are steeped into delicious drinks, both hot and cold.

Herbal teas have existed as long as written history extends.  Modern researchers have founds dried peppermint and hibiscus leaves in several Egyptian pyramids, which date back to 1,000 BC. The popularity of herbal teas has increased in the last decades.
