Magic Teapot

autumn has arrived with its blustery sunshine and stormy nights. Nothing more cozy than lighting a candle and have a steaming cup of tea.

Our favourite calming tea is Evening Bliss. An organic blend of fennel, chamomile, lemon balm, peppermint, lemon grass, valerian root, sage, cardamom and lavender. Spicy minty lemon 🍋

Coffee or tea? I used to be a coffee addict, while I always drank my herbal tea during the day the 2 to 3 cups of coffee in the morning were a must. I couldn't imagine a life without coffee. But with getting older I can't drink that much coffee anymore. I'm getting shaky, my stomach acts up and my sleep patterns are all over the place despite not drinking coffee after 5pm.  3 weeks ago I replaced the coffee with green tea and low and behold I'm feeling better all around.

Green and black tea are made from the same plant Camellia sinensis the main difference is oxidation. The leaves of black tea are oxidized where as the leaves of green tea are not. Both contain caffeine, green tea a little less than black tea, both contain L-theanine.

Caffeine can boost alertness mood,  reaction time, and short-term memory. L-theanine is an amino acid which is not present in coffee. L-theanine is thought to relax and calm your body. It balances the effects of caffeine perfectly.

Pictured my 3 favourite flavoured green teas. Green apple, gunpowder mint and tangerine vanilla.

So here was my healthy alternative to coffee, I do have the odd cup of coffee though the scent is just too nice. I'm also not getting extreme caffeine highs and lows that made me crave the next cup of coffee. Great results all around.
