WHY DRINK BLACK LOOSE LEAF TEA?
Loose leaf black tea is better for you than bagged black tea. Loose leaf black tea utilizes whole tea leaves, fruits, herbs and spices allowing the full flavor and health benefits of each ingredient to steep into your cup. For bagged black tea, the tea leaves and ingredients have to be chopped into tiny pieces in order to fit into a small tea bag. Whenever bagged tea is chopped up finely like that, it gives the leaf more surface area. With that surface area comes more space for the health benefits and flavor to be released immediately into the air. Loose leaf black tea, on the other hand, is not chopped up like that. It stays whole and therefore holds onto all of the flavor and health benefits until it unfurls and releases it into your cup. Not only do you get stronger flavor and more natural health benefits with loose leaf black tea, but you also eliminate the waste of a tea bag, string, staple, etc making loose leaf black tea better for you and for the environment. Once you go loose, you never go bagged.
HOW TO BREW BLACK LOOSE LEAF TEA
First things first, you need an infuser. Infusers can be anything from a coffee filter, tea ball, brew basket or Brewmaster (our personal favorite).
Once you've got your loose leaf tea, grab your infuser and add your tea leaves to it. Pour hot water over your leaves and let your tea steep for the correct amount of time. Once the tea is done steeping, remove the leaves and boom. That's it. You're now a certified steeping pro.
We also offer a few of our favorite brewing utilities. Tea filters are our version of a DIY tea bag that are perfect for when you are on the go. For these, you simply fill them with your favorite loose leaf tea, fold over the top and drop it in your mug. The bag will automatically seal when it gets wet, so you can walk out the door and toss it in the garbage or compost while on the move.
The Brewmaster is our crowd-favorite brewing accessory. Our Brewmaster’s innovative technology makes brewing loose tea simple: just scoop your tea, add hot water, steep, and place the bottom of the Brewmaster on your mug! The Brewmaster releases your tea into the mug while holding onto all of the tea leaves. Added bonus: it is microwave safe and dish washer friendly!

THESE ARE A FEW OF
OUR FAVORITE TEAS
Maui Mango is by far my favorite! This is a full-flavored fruit tea packed with citrus and mango, and it has the perfect amount of sweetness so you don't have to add any sweeteners. I love that you can actually make out the ingredients in Tiesta Teas tea blends as they are not ground down or artificially flavored. I highly recommend this tea blend and Tiesta Teas!
I love this tea blend. I simply add it to a reusable tea infuser or my tea infuser bottle and let it cold brew. Such a wonderful flavor that I don’t have to sweeten it or add anything to it besides water. By far my fave go to drink for the day.
This is the ONLY tea I've ever tried in my life that actually helped relieve stress and gave me a good nights sleep. And I've tried many other teas off the shelf. Wow! I couldn't believe that after drinking 2 cups of tea I felt the tension melt away and got one of the best nights of sleep I've had in a long time. This stuff seemed to have the power of a prescription drug. Without the harmful side effects of popping a pill. I'm a fan of these guys. I'm finally a believer. Thanks for putting together this awesome blend!
Caffeine free and DELICOUS! I had to give it a try. I can't get over how fragrant this tea is and it tastes as good as it smells. I love the chunks of fruit that come to life when you add your hot water. I feel I have to add nothing else to this tea in order to enjoy it. I look forward to trying some of the other flavors available!
