How to Brew Herbal Tea
What type of water should I use to brew Herbal Tea Cellar teas?
Yes! Using bottled or filtered water helps maintain the purest flavor and aroma, especially for delicate herbal teas like Tranquil Lavender Chamomile or Basil Bliss Detox. Avoid distilled water, as it can taste flat and diminish the full herbal experience.
How do I brew Herbal Tea Cellar herbal tea for the best flavor?
Steep one pyramid sachet in 8–10 oz of hot water. For a stronger flavor, steep a little longer. Our biodegradable pyramid sachets allow whole herbs to fully infuse for a rich, aromatic cup. Enjoy hot or over ice.

Can I reuse Herbal Tea Cellar pyramid sachets?
Most Herbal Tea Cellar pyramid sachets can be steeped 2–3 times, though the flavor will be milder after the first cup. For Hibiscus Berry Delight, a slightly longer second steep may be needed to retain its vibrant tartness and full antioxidant-rich flavor. Enjoy multiple cups while maximizing your tea experience.
Should I cover my cup or teapot while steeping Herbal Tea Cellar teas?
Yes! Covering your cup or teapot while steeping helps retain essential oils and aromatic compounds, delivering the richest flavor and aroma. This simple step ensures every cup of Herbal Tea Cellar tea is as flavorful and fragrant as intended.
Can I add sweeteners or milk to Herbal Tea Cellar teas?
Absolutely! Honey, stevia, or cane sugar complement most Herbal Tea Cellar blends. For example:
- Tranquil Lavender Chamomile pairs beautifully with a splash of milk or oat milk.
- Hibiscus Berry Delight tastes amazing with a touch of honey or lemon.
