Usually the Camellia sinensis tea plant is used to make tea but it is NOT used for Tisane tea. Tisane is made up of herbs consisting of dried leaves, flowers, bark, fruit, roots, and/or seeds. Historically, tisane was used as a popular mean for curing various ailments. There are many different varieties of tisane but the most popular are Ginger, jasmine, chamomile and hibiscus herb. Each tea has a specific therapeutic or medical impact. For example, ginger tea helps take away nausea, headaches and general muscle pains. If a mild sweet taste is craved, jasmine tea offers calming benefits while also boosting the immune system. Chamomile tea can be used as a sedative to reduce anxiety and provide sleep. Hibiscus tea, also known as Jamaica , assists in fighting off colds and other infections. Tisane is caffeine free which soothes and relaxes the body.
