A wise person once said, “Sometimes all you need is a good cup of tea.” Tea, the second most consumed beverage after water, used as a natural way to hydrate while looking to help support healthy lifestyle practices. A key benefit to all functional teas is to replace sugary drinks or coffee. Many teas made from Camellia sinensis plant often contain more tannins and caffeine than herbal blends, so provide a bitter or astringent flavor profile many people try to cover with sweeteners. Herbal teas, on the other hand, crafted from botanicals, taste light, soft and mellow. Either way, picking a tea depends on what it can deliver for individual needs.

Shopping Annuity® Brand Premium BalancTea offers a light, sweet flavor of roselle along with 13 other botanicals. Relied on for centuries, herbal teas have gained popularity around the world and are expected to continue to rise as more people focus on reducing caffeine intake.  Herbal teas are created by steeping herbs; submerging roots, seeds and botanicals in water to infuse their natural flavors.

Roselle tea is known for its sweet, light flavor as well as providing a natural light pink color to the appearance- free from artificial coloring, preservatives and caffeine. Botanicals like fennel and cardamom add natural strong flavors while orange peel adds crisp, sweet notes that make it a great choice – hot or cold. To round out the blend found in Shopping Annuity Brand Premium BalancTea there is dandelion root, nettle leaf and lemon balm.

Shopping Annuity Premium BalancTea can be sipped throughout the day or before meals or right before bed. Crafted with distinctive biodegradable bags that can go straight to your compost heap after using to put nutrients back into your flower bed or vegetable garden.
