Maximizing Tea Sales in the New Year

Hibiscus based herbal teas are delicious as well as healthful!
Hibiscus based herbal teas are delicious as well as healthful!

When the calendar turns, we greet each other with wishes of happiness and good health. Fortunately for tea sellers, tea offers both things. With health benefits in spades and a vast variety of flavor options, there’s a tea for everyone and it can offer both. Maximize your tea sales with healthful tea options - but think outside of the box!

Your new year tea menu can certainly offer the classic tummy trimmer type teas and detox themed functional teas, but in truth, all teas can offer these benefits if not loaded with heavy creamers and sweeteners.

Instead of making sweeping changes that typically end in resolutions lost, encourage your customers to find healthful everyday teas that they enjoy. While any tea is healthful, our top three suggestions below:

Turmeric Bliss – This blend of turmeric and ginger with mango and orange flavors is a sunny in appearance as it is in the cup. It can make for a morning “tonic” of sorts and can be served hot for those chilly mornings or iced for a refreshing start. Turmeric and ginger have a long history of anti-inflammatory benefits, and the taste of this blend is anything but medicinal!

Citrus Mint Green – Green tea offers a bounty of benefits. It is one of the most accessible sources of antioxidants that fight cell damage, improved heart health, blood sugar regulation, and weight management support - all available in one little cup. When brewed gently, no sweeteners are needed and this blend of uplifting citrus fruit and soft mint make for a mind clearing, soothing pick-me-up.

Berry Blast – This berry-themed hibiscus flower-based tea which also boasts antioxidants, can lower blood pressure, support liver heath, fights inflammation, and aids digestion. As an iced tea, this refreshing blend offers healthy hydration and a flavorful, fruit punch taste.

These three teas can offer a small (yet delicious) change in a customer’s daily habits that yield big rewards of health and happiness. Cheers!
