Pukka's Three Chamomile Tea

Tea-lovers need not abandon their love of the leaf just because summer has arrived. Tea can be as much of a saviour to your internal thermostat through scorching days as it is in cooler months. Look no further than Pukka's Three Chamomile (RRP $7.95) blend to keep you cool, calm, and collected this summer.

Pukka Three Chamomile is the perfect combination of three Certified Organic chamomile flowers: Egyptian, Croatian and Hungarian. The daisy-like blossoms are hand-picked and gently crushed, creating a delicate tea that brings a wave of tranquillity to the soul. Simply add warm water and leave to slowly infuse at your own pace. Or, for a cooling twist, blend with your favourite citrus fruits for a zesty chamomile iced tea.

Artfully blended by co-founder and Master Herbalist, Sebastian Pole, Pukka teas are produced using the finest organic plants nature has to offer. Sourcing ingredients from around the globe that are sustainably grown, harvested, and fairly traded, Pukka blends are created to be a treat for the senses. Pukka Three Chamomile combines delicious aromas and flavours with the potent yet therapeutic power of herbs.

'The sweetly-scented chamomile flower has been used in herbal traditions, dating back to the ancient Egyptians. It's calming properties give it a variety of therapeutic uses, from a mild sleep aid and anti-inflammatory, to a treatment for fevers, colds and stomach ailments," said Sebastian. 'It takes about 5,000 fresh flowers to collect a kilo of chamomile, and every single one is carefully picked by hand in order to bring you only the best for this deliciously soothing tea," he said.

Like all Pukka teas, the new blends are Certified Organic by the Soil Association and the USDA, with ingredients that can be traced back to the field in which they were grown. Pukka is distributed in Australia by Organic Trader and is available from select health food stores, independent grocers, and online at www.pukkaherbs.com.au.
