Organic Licorice Root Herbal Tea

This is the best tasting organic licorice tea on the planet! And yes, I’ve tried different brands. This tea is smooth and flavorful, you can taste the licorice. It does coast a little more but it’s worth it.

I drink spearmint tea daily to help balance hormones(it works!), and this brand has become my favorite. The flavor is fresh and soothing/ calming effect, and the quality is consistently excellent. It brews beautifully every time and feels clean and pure. I trust this brand completely — perfect for a daily wellness routine!

The tea is very pleasant and refreshing. I recommend it for people who are concerned about their excess weight and want to lose weight. It helps you lose weight and feel fresh and energized during the day.

I developed intense heartburn suddenly and it became an all day, every day issue. This, for someone who had not had an incident of heartburn since I was pregnant with my now 51 year old daughter. Doctor was less than helpful and pinned it solely on my age, which understandably teed me off, so I started researching. Came across a lot of information showing people getting benefits from aloe vera juice and from licorice root; I already had the aloe juice and it was helping, but not quite enough. I bought a single box of these tea bags, just to see if there was any help forthcoming from that quarter. WOW. Just, wow. What a difference! I stopped taking my sucralfate, just to see if it was the licorice root, combined with the aloe vera juice, that was helping me and not just backing up the sucralfate. The difference in my episodes of heartburn that feels like an impending heart attack was amazing. I drink two or three cups of this tea in the morning and early afternoon hours, aloe vera juice mixed into other juice in the morning too and the only episodes I'm having now are those once in a while evenings where I can feel a very slight burning that never manifests into something painful and scary. That is why I bought this very affordable case of six boxes of the tea. Most of the taste is actually in the aftertaste, which is sweet, with an anise note, very pleasant for me. I think the people throwing shade on the flavor are people who are more used to the stunningly over-flavored, horrifically over-sweetened "medicinal" teas and beverages out there. It has saved my sanity, so I would still drink it if it tasted awful, but having it taste pleasant is just one more benefit to drinking it.

I purchased this because of it's antifungal, antiviral and antibacterial properties. I didn't buy it to treat a yeast infection but since I've been drinking about 2 cups of this per day I haven't had one - so that may help you consider this if you are buying it for that reason. I have problems with viral infections and I believe this helps. I believe it also boosts immune system as I drank this a few times when feeling I was coming down with a slight cold and woke up as good as new. If you have a problem with yeast, I suggest you double team it, drink this tea as well as take probiotics. If you buy this tea, do not expect results if you do not drink it regularly as well as prepare it as it was meant to be prepared - I usually steep 2 bags in about 16oz of water for 30 minutes COVERED, then drink and squeeze out the tea bags in the end. The taste is not horrible, in fact I drink it without sweetener and it's soothing on my throat.

Love the quality.

Tastes good cold and warm. I use it for hormonal acne since stopping my aldactone. I have been lucky so far. With this and DIM, I have remained pretty clear. I hope it lasts. I drink two cups of this a day. I like the taste and cannot leave it unattended around my three year old. Be careful around the boys. He was pretty emotional and I couldn't figure out why and remembered he had been stealing some of my tea. I know my prescription was blocking testosterone. I do not know how this works but it does something and he was a mess. Update month later: I still drink two cups of this tea. I take it morning and night. No problems with my skin yet. I am on my second cycle and my face should have at least three pimples, but I have nothing. Still very clear. I sometimes see a small bump trying to appear but it vanishes quickly. I am still taking doxycycline and I wonder how it will affect my acne when I stop that and use just tea, facial gel and DIM. Update Year Later: I went on Accutane. After that it is normal for the dr to do aldactone for maintenance. I hated the aldactone as I gained 20lbs. I found that one cup of this a day has my skin glowing. When it is that time of the month, i drink two. There is a noticeable difference. This tea works like the aldactone by being anti androgenic, which is apparently my problem. This tea gave me the same benefits without gaining weight. Now i did stop this tea for a month. I didn't change any habits and dropped 7 lbs. I think that it may slow down weight loss, but at least it does not make me gain anything. It's a must for me. Keeps my skin clear and glowing.I do recommend it.

The contents of the bags are almost 100% leaf. Other brands I've tried contained a noticeable amount of stems, which add to the weight without adding any desirable compounds and causes bitterness when steeped. The tisane is very minty, and when properly prepared it is not at all bitter. Adding sugar makes it even more minty, but I think that makes it taste like gum or toothpaste. The delicate flavor does not stand up well to cream or milk, so if you like those in your tisane, adding an extra bag will help keep the mintiness. Leaves of any plant only have so much "goodness" to give, so do not steep for a long time hoping to make it stronger; it'll just be bitter. Things that can cause bitterness include: the water was too hot and scalded the leaves, it steeped for too long and over extracted bitter compounds or not enough water was used. If that happens, I find that adding a few ounces of water fixes the problem well enough that I don't need to toss it and start over. I have PCOS, and as many here have mentioned, one way to reduce the androgen hormone and control symptoms is to drink spearmint tisane. I take 2 bags, twice a day, steeped in 16 oz of hot-but-not-boiling R.O. water for 4 minutes. Five days of doing this and menses happened after being M.I.A. for over a year, so it definitely works for that purpose. It also reduces and even eliminates unwanted hair, it just takes a long time (at least 3 months) and requires rock-solid dedication to daily imbibing.
