Davidson's Tulsi Licorice Root Loose-Leaf Tea — 16 oz Bag, USDA Organic & Caffeine-Free

Davidson's Organics Tulsi Licorice Root is a USDA organic loose-leaf tea blending three tulsi varieties with licorice, cardamom, and ginger for a naturally sweet, warming infusion.

This loose-leaf blend pairs the sweet depth of licorice root with the calming, aromatic qualities of three tulsi (holy basil) varieties — Krishna, Rama, and Vana — plus a hint of cardamom and a ginger finish. Packed in a 16-ounce bag, the tea is grown and processed through Davidson's vertically integrated organic supply chain, ensuring traceability from farm to cup. The result is a caffeine-free herbal brew designed for sipping any time you want a naturally sweet, spice-forward infusion.

What flavors and aromas should I expect from Tulsi Licorice Root?

The dominant note is natural licorice sweetness balanced by the fresh, herbaceous character of tulsi. Cardamom adds floral, citrusy highlights while ginger contributes a gentle warming bite at the finish. The overall profile is sweet, slightly spicy, and aromatic without caffeine.

• Sweet licorice root backbone
• Herbal, slightly peppery tulsi layers (Krishna, Rama, Vana)
• Bright cardamom top notes
• Subtle warming ginger finish

How should I brew this loose-leaf tea for best results?

Use freshly boiled water slightly cooled (about 205–212°F) and steep for 6–8 minutes to draw out the licorice sweetness without bitterness. Measure roughly 1 teaspoon per 8-ounce cup, adjusting to taste — more leaves for a stronger, sweeter cup. Strain leaves before drinking; this blend also steeps well into a second cup for a milder infusion.

• 1 teaspoon per 8 oz water as a starting point
• Steep 6–8 minutes at near-boiling temperature
• Allow a second, lighter steep if desired
• Enjoy hot or brew strong and chill for iced tea

How can I enjoy Tulsi Licorice Root beyond a hot cup?

Beyond a straightforward steep, this blend works well as a base for iced tea, a spiced latte with plant milk, or a syrup for cocktails and mocktails. Its natural sweetness reduces the need for added sugar, and the spice notes pair nicely with honey, lemon, or creamy milk alternatives. Use a stronger brew to make concentrates or chilled infusions for summer refreshments.

• Steep strong and chill for iced tea or concentrates
• Blend with steamed plant milk for a caffeine-free latte
• Simmer to make a simple syrup for beverages
• Combine with lemon or honey to taste

It's suited to people who appreciate organic sourcing and traceability, those looking for a warming evening cup, or anyone wanting a versatile loose-leaf tea that performs well hot, cold, or as a beverage base.
