Heart Tonic

Heart Tonic is a floral and grounding blend created to soothe the senses and invite balance. We crafted this tea with care, using herbs that have been treasured in folk traditions for generations—not just for their flavor, but for their presence in rituals of renewal and comfort.

At the heart of this blend is hawthorn berry, traditionally gathered in late summer and long celebrated in European folklore as a symbol of love, protection, and vitality. The tart fruitiness of hawthorn is softened by the sweet floral notes of linden, a tree sacred in Slavic and Germanic traditions and often planted in village centers as a place of gathering and peace. In the Midwest of the United States, when foraging, we look to American Basswood of the linden family.

Holy basil (tulsi), a beloved adaptogenic herb from India, adds a fragrant lift to the cup. In Ayurvedic tradition, tulsi is honored as the “Queen of Herbs.” We’ve paired it with red clover tops, a native North American herb traditionally valued by herbalists for its gentle presence, and rose petals, which lend their signature floral depth and symbolic link to the emotional heart. Finally, sage leaf offers a grounding herbal note—an herb revered across cultures for its deep-rooted symbolism in clarity and purification.

Whether you’re winding down from an overwhelming day or simply seeking a floral and centering cup, Heart Tonic is our go-to when emotions are high and the environment feels heavy. This tea is caffeine-free and can be enjoyed hot or iced.
