Eyebright Tea - 18 bag

The beautifully fragile flowers of eyebright create a subtle and soothing herbal tea that has been enjoyed since the Elizabethan era.

Eyebright is a short flowering plant native to alpine meadows and pastures across Europe and western Asia. It is characterized by tiny white flowers whose ornate petal shape somewhat resembles an orchid. It is sometimes called euphrasia, a name it earned from Euphrosyne, a figure in Greek mythology known for her joy and mirth. Eyebright tea is made from the petals, stems and leaves, and has been enjoyed since the Elizabethan era or even longer. As a tea, eyebright offers a pleasantly subtle fragrance and taste, and is well complemented by a little sugar or honey.

Eyebright tea is more than a fragrant floral brew; this tea offers a plethora of vitamins, minerals, and other important nutrients. Eyebright tea can provide a boost in vitamin C, vitamin E, several B vitamins, and even vitamin D. A variety of minerals can be found in eyebright tea as well, including iron, phosphorus, potassium, selenium and zinc. Flavonoids, tannins, beta carotene and volatile oil are also present in eyebright tea, and many of its constituents have antioxidant properties. These elements combined give an even bigger reason to experience eyebright tea for yourself.
