Bloom & Balance: Herbal Support for Women in Midlife

Bloom & Balance Herbal Tea is a soothing, caffeine-free botanical infusion thoughtfully formulated for women experiencing the natural hormonal changes of perimenopause and menopause.

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits:

Fennel Seed: Naturally sweet and aromatic, fennel has traditionally been used to encourage comfortable digestion and is especially pleasant as an after-meal herbal infusion.

Japanese Honeysuckle Buds: Traditionally used in East Asian herbal preparations, Japanese honeysuckle buds contribute delicate floral notes and complement the other botanicals in this blend.

Raspberry Leaf: Traditionally regarded as a nourishing women's herb, raspberry leaf has a long history of use in herbal preparations for the female reproductive system. Its earthy, slightly astringent character provides the foundation of this blend.

Red Clover: Rich in naturally occurring isoflavones, red clover is one of the traditional women's botanicals most closely associated with the changing hormonal landscape of perimenopause and menopause. It is included in Bloom & Balance for its traditional role in women's wellness during this stage of life.

South African Honeybush: Naturally caffeine-free with a naturally sweet, honey-like flavor, honeybush provides a smooth foundation for the more aromatic botanicals in this blend. Traditionally enjoyed as a South African herbal infusion, it contributes naturally occurring polyphenols and gives Bloom & Balance its mellow sweetness.

How to Brew:

This blend is crafted to be enjoyed either hot or cold. It is recommended that you follow these instructions to brew it, first, hot and then add ice or chill. By first brewing it hot, you are extracting as many of the essential oils, nutrients, and flavors as possible from the botanicals. If you brew it cold (i.e. as "Sun Tea") then you will not extract the full potency of the blend.

Measurement: 1 tbs of loose leaf tea per 8 oz. of boiling water (160 degrees F. recommended for best results)

Steep Time: 12 minutes with the top of the cup/tea pot covered to retain essential oils OR use a French Press for tea/coffee. If steeping in a cup or tea pot, use an infuser for best results.

Sweetener: Sweeten to preference while warm so that the sweetener dissolves completely. It is recommended that if you are sweetening with honey, do so when the tea has cooled to 100 degrees F. or cooler to retain the natural nutritional benefits of the honey.
