Just unboxed your NutraTea? You’ve taken a brilliant step towards supporting your wellness goals naturally, and we’re here to help you get the most out of every cup.

Whether you’ve chosen a blend for digestions, immunity, hormone support, or relaxation, one thing holds true across all of our teas: consistent use is key. Herbal teas work best when they become part of your daily rhythm, not just a one-off pick-me-up.

This guide walks you through how to steep your tea for full effect, why you can (and should!) reuse each bag, and how to build a simple tea habit that fits your lifestyle.

 

Steep it right

Steeping is more than just waiting for your tea to brew, it’s the essential step that activates the herbs’ natural compounds.

Steep your NutraTea blend for 4 to 6 minutes, allowing the heat to extract the maximum benefits from each botanical.

Make sure you don’t rush the process and you’ll be rewarded with a richer taste, deeper colour, and fuller aroma.

 

Reuse your tea bag

Even after your first cup, there’s still plenty of goodness left to enjoy. Thanks to the quality and strength of our ingredients, every NutraTea bag is strong enough for up to 3 infusions per day.

Here’s how to reuse your tea bag for maximum benefit:

  • Brew your tea as usual, then remove the tea bag and store it on a clean dish, or keep it in your mug and top it up with hot water later
  • Re-steep the same bag 2-3 times throughout the day
  • Expect a slightly lighter taste by your third cup, but still, plenty of wellness value.
  • Store your used tea bag in the NutraTea Tea Buddy, so it’s ready to go for your next brew!

Why it matters

  • Saves time and money – one bag goes further
  • Supports the planet – fewer bags, less waste
  • Still tastes great – our herbs retain potency over multiple steeps.

Make it a daily habit 

Herbal teas are most effective when you use them consistently, ideally at the same time every day. Why? Because routine builds momentum, and the body responds best to regular, steady support.

Here’s how to make your tea part of your everyday routine:

  • Anchor your tea to an existing habit, like breakfast or bedtime
  • Leave it visible, a box on the counter is a great reminder
  • Set a calendar reminder if you’re just starting out
  • Pair it with a positive mood cue, such as a moment of calm or a post-lunch reset

Even one cup a day can have a big impact over time.

Boost your results with simple lifestyle shifts

To get the most from your NutraTea blend, try these everyday habits that will support the benefits of your herbal tea to help keep your body balanced and nourished.

Stay hydrated

Alongside your tea, aim for 6-8 glasses of water a day. Hydration helps your body absorb herbal compounds, flush toxins, and regulate energy.

Eat nutrient-rich foods

A balanced diet of whole foods, including fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and healthy fats, provides the ideal foundation for health support.

Prioritise rest

7-9 hours of quality sleep each night enhances your body’s natural repair processes and makes your wellness routine more effective.

Manage stress

Mindful moments like journaling, walking outdoors, or deep breathing can help you get more from calming blends such as NutraRelax and Chamomile + Valerian.
