The teas and tisanes in this collection have one thing in common: they're built around ingredients that have been central to cold-season rituals and daily wellness traditions for centuries. Ginger, elderberry, rosehip, and lemon myrtle aren't new discoveries. They're ingredients with deep roots in traditional practices, cultural ritual, and seasonal sipping across the world.
This range spans every style. Green teas with their clean, fresh character. White teas with a delicate, naturally sweet quality. Warming ginger tisanes. Deep berry blends. A few that fit no single category but belong in any cold-season collection. Some are caffeine-free. Most are best sipped warm. All of them earn their place on the shelf when you need a cup that feels like it means it.
Key ingredients
Ginger
Warming, spicy, and unmistakably present. Ginger has been central to cold-season drinks and traditional warming rituals across Asia, South Asia, and beyond for thousands of years. In the cup it's fiery and fragrant, with a dry heat that settles in the chest. Find it in Just Ginger and Lemongrass and Ginger.
Lemon myrtle
Native to subtropical Australia, lemon myrtle (Backhousia citriodora) has one of the highest natural concentrations of citral of any plant, giving it an intensely clean, lemon-forward aroma. Long used in Australian indigenous traditions, it brews bright and citrusy without sourness. Find it in Just Lemon Myrtle.
Turmeric
Golden, earthy, and warmly spiced. Turmeric has been a cornerstone of Ayurvedic tradition for thousands of years and is one of the most widely used medicinal spices across South and Southeast Asian cultures. In the cup it brings a distinctive warmth and a gently savoury depth.
Elderberry and rosehip
Both have long histories in European cold-season folk traditions and both appear in Very Berry Fruitea. Elderberry is dark, tart, and deeply fruity. Rosehip, the small fruit of the rose plant, is sweet-tart and floral. Together they make a rich, naturally sweet berry tisane with no caffeine.
FAQ
Are immunity teas caffeine-free?
It depends on the blend. The herbal and fruit tisanes in this range (Just Ginger, Lemongrass and Ginger, Very Berry Fruitea, Just Lemon Myrtle, Liquorice Legs, Red Rooibos) are all naturally caffeine-free. The green and white teas (Sencha, Gunpowder Green, Green Rose, China Jasmine, White Jasmine, Pai Mu Tan, White Monkey Jasmine) all contain caffeine. All Day Breakfast Decaffeinated is the caffeine-free black tea option.
What is the difference between Just Ginger and Lemongrass and Ginger?
Just Ginger is a single-ingredient tisane: pure ginger, direct and warming. Lemongrass and Ginger combines ginger's heat with lemongrass's bright citrus-grassy character, making it lighter and more refreshing.
How do you brew ginger tea?
Use boiling water at 100°C and steep for 5–7 minutes. For a stronger, more warming cup, steep for up to 10 minutes. Ginger blends don't go bitter with longer steeping. Adding a squeeze of lemon and a small amount of honey is the classic cold-season approach.
