Create Your Perfect Summer Herbal Tea Lineup
Summer’s all about cool drinks, slower moments, and a little extra self-care. Herbal teas deliver on all fronts, refreshing the body while gently calming the mind. These blends are naturally caffeine-free, meaning they’re ideal for sipping from morning to evening.
Whether you’re looking to chill out—literally—or simply enjoy the season with mindful hydration, these teas offer a delicious way to do both. In this guide, we’ll highlight five herbal teas that are perfect for summer with a generous helping of ice. We promise there’s a sip here for every kind of summer vibe, whatever you’re feeling.
1. Blood Orange
Revitalizing tang that keeps the heat at bay.
If you’re looking for bold, fruity flavors, hibiscus is your summer go-to. This vibrant, ruby-red herbal tea is naturally tart—sort of like a cranberry-meets-pomegranate situation. It’s also packed with antioxidants. It's no wonder it’s a staple in tropical climates, where it’s traditionally brewed cold to help beat the heat.
Blood Orange Herbal Tea takes hibiscus to the next level by blending it with orange peels, rose hips, and natural orange flavor for a citrusy kick. The result is a tangy, thirst-quenching brew that’s perfect over ice.
For an extra-refreshing twist, serve it chilled with a slice of fresh orange or a sprig of mint. It’ll probably feel more like a treat than a wellness ritual, though you’ll get both benefits in every glass.
2. Lavender Lemon
Calm, cool, and collected.
Lavender and lemon are a timeless duo. One calms, the other uplifts. Together, they create a refreshing herbal tea that’s perfect for summer relaxation.
Lavender Lemon Tea combines the reinvigorating flavors of lemongrass and lavender for a caffeine-free blend that offers a smooth citrusy flavor with gentle floral notes. It’s an ideal choice for unwinding after a busy day.
Enjoy it with a slice of lemon or a sprig of mint for an extra-refreshing twist. Whether you're lounging on the porch or seeking a moment of tranquility, this tea provides a delightful balance of brightness and calm.
3. Summer Night
A tea for after-hours summer evenings.
Looking for a tea that captures the essence of a tranquil summer evening?
Summer Night Herbal Tea offers a delightful blend of flavors that soothe and refresh.
This caffeine-free infusion combines apple pieces, rose hips, cranberries, spearmint leaves, natural orange flavor, rose petals, marigold flowers, safflower, and natural crème flavor. The result is a harmonious medley where soft mint and bright orange notes dance on your palate, culminating in a creamy floral finish.
Pop in a slice of fresh orange to enhance its refreshing qualities!
4. Green Rooibos Blueberry
Refreshment Meets Antioxidants.
Nothing screams warm weather like a basket of berries. So it’s no wonder
Green Rooibos Blueberry is one of our top picks for a delightful blend that's perfect for summer.
This tea combines green rooibos with blueberries, cranberries, rose hips, hibiscus, raspberry leaves, and blue cornflowers, creating a vibrant, berry-forward infusion. The green rooibos provides a light, crisp base, allowing the sweet-tart berry flavors to shine.
Enjoy it with a touch of honey or a splash of lemonade for an extra-refreshing treat. Have it while lounging by the pool or as an everyday pick-me-up. However you choose to, this tea delivers a burst of berry goodness in every sip.
5. Watermelon Cooler
Refreshment Meets Antioxidants.
Okay, maybe we lied. If anything says summer, it’s probably the sweet, refreshing taste of watermelon.
Watermelon Cooler Herbal Tea captures this quintessential flavor in a caffeine-free blend that's perfect for hot days.
This vibrant infusion combines apple pieces, hibiscus, rose hips, raspberry leaves, cranberries, natural watermelon flavor, and rose petals. The result is a juicy, fruity tea with a hint of tartness, reminiscent of biting into a fresh slice of watermelon. It's an ideal choice for those seeking a flavorful, hydrating beverage without the caffeine.
Add a splash of sparkling water and a sprig of mint for a delightful mocktail for extra summery vibes.
Crafting the Perfect Summer Tea Ritual
Herbal teas offer a delicious way to stay hydrated, centered, and cool all summer long. With so many caffeine-free options, you can sip morning through evening without skipping a beat.
One of the best ways to savor these teas during warm months is by cold brewing. Simply steep your favorite blend in cold water for several hours or overnight, and you’ll have a smooth, flavorful iced tea ready whenever thirst strikes.
Feel free to get creative, too. Adding fresh fruit slices, herbs like mint or basil, or a splash of sparkling water gives your tea a lightly fizzy twist. Herbal teas are incredibly versatile, so mixing and matching flavors can turn each cup into its own unique blend.
Whether you’re lounging on the porch, working from home, or hosting friends, creating a tea ritual tailored to your tastes brings a simple joy to the season. Explore our full
