TreeHugger Picks: A Spot of Tea
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 11. 3.06
TreeHuggers like to drink, be it booze, coffee or otherwise; sometimes tea is just what the doctor ordered. Here are our picks for the indulging in its leafy goodness.
1) Tea Forté's Silken-Tea-Infusers revamp boring tea bags and replaces them with herbal infusion pyramids of whole-leaf flowers, fresh harvested rough cut herbs, and all natural essential oils.
2) Sometimes it's best to eschew bags for tea infusers (hey, they're a product service system) like the suave Teastick.
3) Green Green Tea won the Best New Organic Product for 2006 and is a carbon-neutral product to boot.
4) The Groovy Mind has some groovy fair trade organic teas we like.
5) Jones Organic Teas are a cool alternative when the weather warms up.

No Honest Tea?
Word! I love Honest Tea. Good stuff, organic, non-leeching plastic bottles, etc.
I've been jonesing for one of these infuser teapots by Bodum (http://www.bodumusa.com/shop/line.asp?MD=2&GID=7&LID=519&HID=10280%2D10&CHK=&SLT=&mscssid=SDUNGF9NEEX88GU223N2C936KWLQD752). Its a double walled glass teapot with a built in stainless infuser.
I want to recommend another tea I just tried. It's called TULSI TEA, and they say it's 100% organic (which means all of it!) it's very delicious and relaxing. it's in wildoats and online at www.organicindia.com.
