Herbal tea has been part of daily life in many Arabic homes for generations. It’s more than a warm drink. It’s a way to support your body using dried leaves, seeds, roots, and flowers. At Alfourat, we carry a wide range of herbal teas—from chamomile and mint to sage and anise—each with its own purpose.
What Makes Herbal Tea Different?
Unlike black or green tea, herbal teas don’t come from the Camellia sinensis plant. That means they’re naturally caffeine-free. Many are made from dried herbs like peppermint, chamomile, or hibiscus. These plants contain natural compounds that may support digestion, ease sleep, or calm the body after meals.
