Brewing and storing loose-leaf herbal tea

For a consistent starting method across our loose-leaf herbal teas, use the instructions below unless the individual product page provides different guidance. This shared method is based on the approved preparation guidance for Organic Lemon Balm Tea.

Water temperature and steeping

Put 2 g, about 1 teaspoon, into a cup. Pour over 200 ml of hot, boiling water, cover, and steep for 10 minutes. Drink while still warm and use a tea strainer if preferred.

Suggested serving size

Use 2 g per 200 ml cup. The approved Lemon Balm guidance says each portion may be brewed up to three times a day. It also states that a 150 g pack provides 225 servings on this basis.

Resealing and storage

After measuring, reseal the tea in its food-grade zip pouch and keep the pouch closed between uses. The Lemon Balm product is packed by hand in a resealable, food-grade zip pouch.

These are preparation and storage notes only, not medical advice. Where a product page gives different instructions, follow that product-specific guidance.
