Description:
Ginger, one of the blend components helps achieve this state. Considered by many to be a veritable Ayurvedic medicine chest, ginger aids digestion and helps nutrients reach body tissues by clearing what is known as microcirculatory channels. (In fact, an ayurvedic sutra states that everyone should consume ginger just before lunch and dinner for this exact reason). Roses, another component of the blend are believed to balance Sadhaka Pitta or affairs of the heart. Again, tied to the seasons, the heart is thought to fall out of balance in the summer when hot weather can wreak havoc on the mind, digestion, and body metabolism. Ingesting roses is thought to offer some relief.
Preparation:
HOT TEA: put 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea for each 7-9 oz/200-260ml of water in the teapot. Pour freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep 3-7 min. Add Milk & Sugar to taste.
ICED TEA: (1L/QT): 6 slightly heaping teaspoons loose tea into a teapot. Pour 315ml boiling water on tea. Steep 5 min. Quarter fill serving pitcher with cold water Pour into pitcher straining the tea. Add ice, top-up with cold water, garnish & sweeten to taste
Additional info:
If you’re an adherent of Ayurveda, India’s traditional medicine, you’ll know that an internal cleansing is advised every time the seasons change. Why the schedule? In the same way, nature rejuvenates itself each summer, winter, spring, and fall, so too should the body reacclimatize itself to the cycles of the earth. Understandably, a large part of undertaking an Ayurvedic cleanse is related to diet, which is where Ayurvedic Purify Wellness comes in. According to the Council of Maharishi Ayurveda Physicians, the whole idea of a purifying cleanse is to restore balance within the body, so toxins can flow out of the body.

I purchased this as a gift for a friend who’s a tea snob, and she loves it. I like the scent and will buy this for myself.

Many other rose teas did not have enough rose petals, but this tea has a lot. I am ordering another one, because it’s really good.

I LOVE this tea. The rose fragrance and ginger flavor is just subtle enough to keep you sipping for more. The flavor is extremely well balanced. I am partial to rose flavor and smell- if you’re a fan you will adore this tea!!!

I absolutely love this tea. It is a very good quality white tea and the hint of rose petals and ginger adds a great flavor that rounds out the tea. Great tea to drink with breakfast.

Very strong rose smell and taste, which is exactly what I wanted. I make to use as iced tea for milk teas and it’s wonderful. I even ordered two my daughters each a pouch of their own.

I love this stuff, it’s on my subscribe list. It has a strong rose flavor. The tea has a lot of beautiful pink petals too. I like to drink it with a little cream, but it is just good as plain too.

I love this tea, it has a very light rose flavor. I drink it alone in the evenings when I’m craving tea but can’t drink caffeine. I also add it to my black tea in the morning to give it a sweeter flavor.

I absolutely enjoy drinking this tea! It is fragrant like a rose, and I feel so relaxed when I drink it! I add a touch of stevia or local honey, then refrigerate it for my favorite iced tea!
