Antioxidant Benefit: Whether you choose tea (or freedom) for its antioxidant benefits, consider using more tea leaves and brewing your favorites longer to maximize its natural power. Remember, good things take time—and a little extra steeping is worth the reward.

Food Safety Advisory: We’ve gone to great lengths to ensure you’re getting the cleanest, best-tasting, and most carefully sourced teas available. But even the finest tea deserves quality water. For both flavor and safety, we strongly recommend using filtered or freshly drawn cold water, brought to a rolling boil, when brewing any tea. Today’s water quality isn’t always something you can trust (Flint, Michigan cough cough). Don’t risk it—boil any water that seems questionable. Doing so will eliminate harmful elements like bacteria, parasites, and viruses, reducing the chance of water-borne illnesses. After all, clean water means a cleaner revolution in every cup.

Oh, and last but not least...

"Conquer the art of preparation, and each cup becomes a revolution—bold, deliberate, and steeped in defiance."

— Some rebellious old tea lover, probably...
