Is There a Difference Between Tea, Tea herbal and Tisane?
A large number of beverages are called tea, but if you look at the label of some of those “teas” you may notice the word tisane. True tea is made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. True teas include black, oolong, green and white tea. Flavored teas include Earl Grey, which is black tea with bergamot, and Jasmine, which is usually green tea with jasmine flowers. Other varieties of teas include Darjeeling and Ceylon, which are black teas and Gunpowder and Sencha, which are green teas. Tea herbal and tisane are one in the same. It seems almost any flower or that is steeped in hot water is referred to as tea; although in some countries the label tea is legally restricted to drinks made with the true tea shrub.
Some common tea herbals include chamomile, peppermint and rooibos. Of course this is a very short list of the commonly available tea herbals.
The nice thing is that whether it’s a true tea or a tisane many “teas” seem to have health benefits. True teas, like green and black, have been included in more research studies and seem to provide the biggest health benefit, but tea herbals have proved beneficial as well.
In recent studies rooibos, also known as red tea, has shown liver protecting abilities as well.
Besides the question of tea or tisane you might also ask tea bag or loose leaf? Tea bags are good for convenience and the triangular tea bags are wonderful for convenience with better
flavor; but to genuinely savor the flavor a quality loose leaf tea is advisable. The loose tea allows water to circulate around the leaves better to help draw out the flavor.
Whether you prefer tea or tisane, tea bag or loose leaf it’s easy to understand why tea has become so popular.
