Tea Recipes and Journal

Most pure herbal and fruit infusions are naturally caffeine-free, but not every product called tea is. The key is knowing what is actually in your cup.

Traditional tea comes from the Camellia sinensis plant. This includes black tea, green tea, white tea and oolong tea. These teas naturally contain caffeine.

Herbal and fruit infusions are different. They are made from plants, flowers, roots, herbs, spices or fruit rather than Camellia sinensis. This means many popular herbal options, including rooibos, chamomile and hibiscus, are naturally caffeine-free.

If you are looking for a caffeine-free tea for spring, checking the ingredients is a simple place to start.

Tea Life's current Australian Native Tea collection includes both pure native botanical infusions and blends that combine native ingredients with traditional tea. Knowing the difference can help you choose a tea based on flavour, caffeine content and how you want to serve it.

Spring in New Zealand can bring a mix of cool mornings, sunny afternoons, wind and sudden showers. A warm cup of tea may suit the start of the day, while an iced herbal infusion can be refreshing when the sun comes out. Keeping a few different teas in the cupboard makes it easy to choose something that fits the weather and your mood.

Spring in Australia is a good time to change the way you enjoy tea. As the weather becomes warmer, lighter fruit flavours, floral blends, citrus notes and naturally caffeine-free herbal infusions can offer an alternative to heavier cups.

As winter starts to give way to spring, tea preferences can change with the weather.

The rich, warming drinks that suit cold winter mornings can give way to lighter, brighter flavours as the days become longer and temperatures begin to rise. This makes the transition into spring a good time to explore herbal teas, fruit infusions, green teas and colourful botanicals that can be enjoyed hot, iced or cold brewed.
