We have included a variety of caffeinated and decaffeinated options, many of which blend in a other healthful ingredients. For example, containing its namesake root, The Republic of Tea Biodynamic Turmeric may be able to help reduce information in the body, while Yogi Healthy Skin and Traditional Medicinals Stress Ease may be able to soothe gastrointestinal problems due to the added licorice root. Additionally, the former also contains a proprietary blend of herbs specifically designed to give the skin a healthy glow, while the latter has skullcap, which may help with insomnia and anxiety. Celestial Seasonings Apple Spice is another option that may help with sleep issues thanks to the added chamomile, plus its distinct flavor can bring pleasant memories of the holiday season to mind.
If your goal is to get a little extra kick and you'd rather reach for tea than coffee in the morning, you'll need to opt for one of the caffeinated varieties on our list, which include Vahdam Sweet Masala Chai, Harney & Sons Classic Hot, and Davidson's Organics Apple. While Harney & Sons Classic Hot comes in little silk sachets, both Vahdam Sweet Masala Chai and Davidson's Organics Apple are loose leaf, so you'll need a tea strainer or a teapot that comes with an incorporated strainer to prepare them. You may also do well to check out our list of the best high-caffeine teas if you want some options in other flavors.
Speaking of other flavors, vanilla is a classic accompaniment to cinnamon, and while Yogi Healthy Skin and Stash Premium already have it as an added ingredient, there is no reason you couldn't pick up some vanilla bean and add it to any of the others yourself. If you have never tried true vanilla bean and have been using the extract your whole life, you'll certainly be in for a treat.
