tea flavor idea.....
CHAI GINGER VANILLA ALMOND GREEN TEA.

Question
how long does it take the "get clean" detox tea to take effect? how long until your body has been significantly cleansed by it if used as directed?

Answer
Thank you for your Queries. It is impossible to answer your question as each person is different. This tea is meant to be a support to a cleansing program or as an everyday tea to support healthy liver function. If you want to detoxify your body, you will need to follow the dietary recommendations of a health care practitioner who can track your progress.

Question
I was recently attacked by a plant while picking my cherry tomatoes. The painful culprit turned out to be a stinging nettle. I read on line that it makes a good tea, so I harvested some leaves and made herbal tea mixing the stinging nettle leaves with lemon balm leaves. It was awesome. Would you ever consider making at stinging nettle and lemon balm green tea combination?

Answer
Thank you for sharing your comments with us. What a joy to make tea from an herb garden which is made from plants freshly harvested from your very own garden! The nettle leaves are providing lots of minerals and the lemon balm has a calming influence and treasured for uplifting the spirits. Although we haven’t combined these two herbs together in a tea, you might consider brewing Get Happy with Get Growing or Get Maternal together in the same cup and you would have nettles combined with Lemon Balm plus a lot of other great herbs!

Question
Hey there. I drink 2 kinds of bulk leaf Republic of Tea every day. I get it from a store in San Francisco called Rainbow Grocery. Its pricey (around $40/pound) but totally worth the cost.

I used to drink coffee every day, but from the moment I tried that mate latte blend, my desire for coffee was gone. I don't know why. I wasn't even trying to stop drinking coffee! But, I'm glad I did.

I just have one question about the Mate Latte blend. What is the calorie content? It can't possibly be zero, but I can't find the nutritional stats on it.

You have to remember that I'm drinking like 2 pots of this tea a day...

Thanks!

Answer
Thank you for your interest in our MATE LATTE and for sharing your comments with us! It is always good to hear from our Citizens especially when they have fled the oily opiate of the roasted bean!!!

There is less than five calories in each cuppa MATE LATTE (more like 3.8 calories). We invite you to enjoy many cups with us, Sip by Sip!

Question
Does Double Green Matcha Tea contain caffeine?

Answer
Thank you for your interest in our DOUBLE GREEN MATCHA TEA. Matcha is said to be even healthier than other green teas since it is the only tea in which the whole leaf is used. Green tea contains a compound called tannin. Tannin slows down the absorption of caffeine into the blood. This means that the caffeine from green tea is gradually released over the course of 6-8 hours, unlike the short burst from coffee. There is about 50 milligrams per cuppa in our DOUBLE GREEN MATCHA TEA.

Matcha, a powdered green tea, comes from the same plant as black teas (the Camellia Sinensis Plant), but remains unfermented. It is then ground into a fine green powder so that you receive benefits from the entire tea leaf. Matcha is the most nutrient-rich green tea.
