Tea gives us all the feels. We especially love that tea can address feelings, moods, aches, insomnia and lack of focus. While tea is not a cure-all, adding tea to your daily routine is a good idea. At its core, tea is an excellent source of hydration. Tea and botanicals have been used for generations in cultures throughout the world for wellness and healing. With that in mind, we asked our staff: What tea fits your mood?
