OVERVIEW:

Eucalyptus leaves have a strong menthol-like scent because they are rich in aromatic oils. The leaves are used for their strong, sweet, woody aroma to make infused oils, salves, chest rubs, herb pillows and also for facial steam baths. Eucalyptus tea may be an ancient well-known remedy for boosting respiratory health, but its health benefits do not stop there. Its antioxidants and anti-microbial effects may aid in strengthing the immune system, protecting skin health, easing stress and anxiety, lowering blood sugar, eliminating inflammation, and fighting against bacterial infections.

Tisanes (pronounced tea-zahn) are usually categorized by what part of the plant they come from. They generally fall into one of these four categories:

Plant and leaf based tisanes: lemon balm, mint, lemongrass, lemon verbena, raspberry leaf, and peppermint

Flower tisanes: rose, chamomile, hibiscus, lavender, rosehip, and jasmine

Root, bark and seed based tisanes: cinnamon, dandelion root (chicory), echinacea, ginger, cardamom, caraway, and fennel

Fruit/berry tisane: raspberry, blueberry, peach, lemon, and apple

Tisanes are also called herbal teas, botanicals, or infusions and they are a major part of the tea world but are not technically teas. It is actually an infusion or decoction made from a plant other than Camellia sinensis which is the plant from which true teas (green tea, black tea, oolong, etc.) are made. Tisanes are caffeine free.
