Technically flower and herbal teas are “infusions” not “tea”

[@lisahoshowsky4251]

I had a tea plant as a houseplant but it didn’t make it💀 I’ll stick with growing things like mint and camomile😅

[@PyroSparton117]

I’d love a video about how teas a processed! That sounds awesome!

[@cher1z4rd]

That's why kombucha can be make with any tea that's not herbal or floral! I learned this fact when trying to make kombucha hahaha. Its so fun to know that this one plant can taste sooooo different just alternating doffrrent proceess.

This might be a dumb question, but does all the tea you sell have caffeine? I want to try it; I just wanted to make sure it does have caffeine.

[@cher1z4rd]

All teas have caffeine, but it gets wash out after the first few steeps iirc. So if you're looking for strong caffeinated teas, just make sure you steep longer first the first few steep (doesn't necessarily means it's tasty tho haha)

What about camellia crassacolumna?

[@bobiothehobo]

It is one plant, but there are two main verietals: camellia sinensis sinensis and camellia sinensis assamica.

How do you feel about the quality of tea coming from rishi? I’ve been drinking tea every morning for years despite not knowing a ton about it. This is my favorite brand so far of the half dozen or so others that I have tried.

[@user-gt4gs5xu6s]

If it's in a bag it's low quality typically

[@aesthetix_K]

Cool. BTW, how is herbal tea made then?

[@blakecarnes9400]

I'm a little late but herbal tea is anything that isn't "tea" that's steeped in water. It's tea in that it's something steeped in water, but not tea in the sense that tea is a specific plant

[@MrArthoz]

​@@blakecarnes9400 does coffee count as herbal tea in that sense? 😅

[@user-gt4gs5xu6s]

Non tea "teas" are called tisanes btw

[@ChrisMinchella]

@@user-gt4gs5xu6s This. As an addendum, if you ever get the chance the Celestial Seasonings plant in Golden Colorado which specializes in tisanes has an excellent tour.
