Tea & Herbal Infusions - TeaLovers

You would be forgiven for thinking herbal infusions are some kind of supplement or medical practice. A herbal infusion, in the sense of talking about ‘tea’, is simply what we call a herbal tea. A herbal infusion is the process of steeping herbs in hot water until the water absorbs the essential oils, nutrients and flavours from the herb. Herbal infusions may consist of roots, leaves, shoots or flower petals and are primarily drunk for health and medicinal reasons, as well as for taste and pleasure.

A herbal infusion tea can consist of a single herb (such as chamomile or peppermint), or can be a blend of herbs that have been carefully selected for medicinal purpose or simply great taste. Examples of herbal infusion blends include Peppermint & Liquorice herbal tea or Lemongrass & Ginger herbal tea. Herbal Infusions can also be blended with dried fruits and spices to make them taste great, as well as adding further health value to the tea.

Herbal teas have been consumed by human civilizations for centuries - For the purpose of treating illness, preserving youth and maintaining optimal health. Although we may refer to herbal infusions as herbal ‘teas’, herbal infusions do not actually contain ‘tea’ (no camellia senesis leaf).The great thing about herbal infusion teas is that they contain no caffeine, are generally high in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals and can be enjoyed at any time of the day.


The earliest verbal record of herbal teas dates back to 2737 BC in China. In written history, there are records of herbal tea that go as far back as the third century AD. The use of herbal teas spread from China to Egypt to Japan, and then to Europe and beyond. Herbal infusions can also be traced back to the beginning of Ayurvedic medicine in India, where specific herbs were put together in tailored combinations in order to possess unique healing properties and health benefits for different types of people.

Examples of herbal infusions that have been used for centuries for medicinal purpose include chamomile, peppermint, liquorice root, rosemary, ginger, raspberry leaf, linden flower, turmeric, echinacea, olive leaf and many more. Chamomile has been used for thousands of years to help reduce inflammation, treat stomach pain, aid sleep and promote calmness and muscle relaxation. Liquorice root tea has been traditionally used for treating stomach pain and cough.
