The benefits of herbal tea depend entirely on the quality of the ingredients used, reaching for organic tea whenever possible (some herbs are difficult to find or grow organically).

Technically, herbal teas are referred to as “tisanes,” and are the leaves, stems, bark, roots or any portion of a plant infused in water to release its benefits.

Steeping the herbs in hot water brings out the plants’ benefits by releasing the active ingredients, such as essential oils.
Each plant has its own benefit(s) the list could go on forever in terms of the benefits of different herbal teas, while there are certainly benefits to drinking herbal tea, knowing how to steep your herbal tea properly will ensure you’re getting the most from each cup.
