Product Review: Bigelow Mint Medley Herb Tea

A refreshing tea that I have been drinking down to help open up my sinuses naturally is the Bigelow Mint Medley Herb Tea. It is all-natural and is made with several different kinds of mint herbs that are refreshing, uplifting and cooling to the senses. I personally enjoy the tea a lot because it does taste good hot and cold and wont give me tremors because it does not contain any caffeine.

The Bigelow Mint Medley Herb Tea comes in a box with twenty individually wrapped tea bags inside. Each tea bag contains a blend of mint herbs such as peppermint and spearmint. Other herbs used to help add flavor to this tea are rose hips, hibiscus and lemon peel. The tea does have a strong mint aroma when you go to open up an individual wrapped tea bag. The mint strong mint aroma seems to open up my sinus right away, which is one of the reasons I enjoy drinking this tea. I am always suffering from a stuffy nose that runs constantly due to sever allergies. Now I know this tea is not made to treat allergies, but it sure does relieve my allergy symptoms temporarily.

Now the way I like to make the mint herbal tea is by placing one tea bag into a teacup and than pouring a cup of boiling water over it. Then I allow the tea to steep for five minutes until I have a deep brownish golden looking colored tea with a strong mint aroma. After, I personally like to add it a teaspoon of sugar and a splash of milk to help add flavor and smoothness. I find the mint tea allow to be overpowering so adding milk and sugar helps mellow out the deep mint flavor. When I want a mint ice tea, I simply brew a cup of the tea and than add a few cubes of ice too it and I got myself a lovely cooling and refreshing ice tea.

I also enjoy sipping on this mint tea without milk and sugar when I have an upset stomach because it seems to ease the nausea away. When have been vomiting this tea seems to be the only thing I can keep down to ease my discomfort away and the nasty after taste left in my mouth.

The other way I have been using these tea bags is by tossing them into my bath for a lovely uplifting mint bath that eases away stress. I also find it helps ease my tension headaches and body aches away soaking in a mint bath made with these teabags. I would definitely recommend anyone to try it.

I do think the Bigelow Mint Medley Herb Tea is affordable for the quality of the tea. I would recommend this tea to anyone who likes strong mint flavors, or is looking for a natural way to relieve sinus pressure. I do hope those of you who try this mint tea like the way it taste as much as I do.
