Finding yourself saying "Huh?" a little more often than you'd like? Join the club. As we age, our memory, both short and long-term, is often the first thing to fade. As our synapses slow down our brain tries to fill in the blanks. Thankfully, we've got a tea for that! Introducing Huh? memory tea.
Comprised of an antioxidant-rich blend of herbs, green mate and citrus, this brain-boosting blend also comes packed with a secret (well, not-so-secret) ingredient you've probably never heard of before - Tulsi leaves.
According to the Journal of Auyerveda and Integrative Medicine (Ayurveda is the practice of traditional Indian medicine), Tulsi (Latin: Ocimum tenuiflorum), also known colloquially as holy basil) "has been shown to counter metabolic stress.through positive effects on memory and cognitive function." Cultivation of Tulsi is also said to have "spiritual and practical significance that connects the grower to the creative powers of nature." No wonder it is often referred to as the "Queen of Herbs".
So, the next time you find yourself stumped for an answer, simply reach for a steaming cup of Huh? Drink in the sweet earthy character of this rich herbal mélange and feel your memory grow. Now, if only we could find that teapot!

Place 6 slightly heaping teaspoons of loose tea or 6 tea bags into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Using filtered or freshly drawn cold water, boil and pour 1¼ cups/315ml over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the tea or removing the tea bags. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water. (Note: Some luxury quality teas may turn cloudy when poured over ice. This is a sign of luxury quality and nothing to worry about.)
Place 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea or 1 tea bag into a teapot for each serving required. Using filtered or freshly drawn cold water, boil and pour 6-7oz/170-200ml per serving over the tea. Cover and let steep for 5 minutes. Add hot tea to a 12oz/375ml acrylic glass filled with ice, straining the tea or removing the bags. Not all of the tea will fit, allowing for approximately an additional ½ serving. Sweeten and/or add lemon to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted. (Note: Some luxury quality teas may turn cloudy when poured over ice. This is a sign of luxury quality and nothing to worry about!)
ANTIOXIDANT BENEFIT: For a greater antioxidant benefit brew longer and use more tea.
FOOD SAFETY ADVISORY: We strongly recommend using filtered or freshly drawn cold water brought to a rolling boil when brewing all types of tea. Today's water has been known to carry viruses, parasites and bacteria. Boiling the water will kill these elements and reduce the potential incidence of water-borne illnesses.
