Description
The caffeine-free loose pear leaf tea blend opens with the gentle sweetness of dried pears, then layers in cinnamon and star anise for slow, familiar warmth. Green rooibos holds the blend together, keeping the body smooth, while hibiscus and rose hips introduce just enough tartness to balance the sweetness. Chamomile ties it all together with a quiet, calming finish. Handcrafted in small batches by a woman-owned business in Indianapolis, this is the kind of tea that earns a regular place in the cupboard, whether you're reaching for it after dinner or carving out a quiet moment mid-afternoon.
