A Little CBD Explainer 

CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of the most well-known phytochemicals of the Cannabis sativa plant. The other one is the psychoactive phytochemical tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that induces a high. 

Research into CBD suggests there are various benefits to including this natural compound in your daily life, whether it’s in your skin care routine or your cuppa tea. 

Currently CBD is under investigation for the following potential applications:

• Anxiety and stress relief 
• Promotion of hair growth
• Improving sleep 
• Increasing skin elasticity to lessen wrinkles and other signs of premature aging 

The good news about using CBD is that it’s: 

• Therapeutic and not psychoactive, so you won’t get high 
• Well-tolerated with generally rare side effects 
• An all-natural ingredient 

What Is CBD Tea? 

As the name suggests, CBD infused tea is a tea that’s been infused with CBD, or a CBD extract has been added to the tea. You can buy CBD-infused tea bags or make your own CBD tea at home using a tincture and your favorite herbs, tea bags, or loose tea leaves. 

The benefit of using a CBD tincture is that you can control the dosage. Plus, the tincture has a mostly neutral taste, making it ideal for adding to your favorite tea-drinking ritual.

Combining CBD with tea boosts the benefits you may only get from the phytochemical. 

• Chamomile tea is known to aid in relaxation and sleep and boost your immune system. 
• Mint tea is commonly used to ease congestion, digestion, headaches, and menstrual cramps. 
• Turmeric and ginger tea helps reduce inflammation, regulate blood pressure, and relieve chronic pain. 
• Green tea is rich in antioxidants. It can help treat obesity and type 2 diabetes and prevent cardiovascular diseases and cancer. 

When Can You Enjoy CBD Tea? 

You can drink multiple cups of CBD-infused tea daily, but remember, moderation is best. 

So enjoy a cup of black CBD tea to get ready and focused in the morning, have an iced CBD matcha tea in the afternoon, and sip on some chamomile CBD tea to chill before bed. 

CBD Infused Tea vs Hemp Tea 

CBD tea is sometimes called hemp tea, but it isn’t always the same. Hemp tea is made by steeping dry hemp flower buds, leaves, seeds, or dried roots. 

The plant matter is strained, leaving behind a greenish-brown beverage that has a slightly bitter and earthy flavor when consumed as is. 

You can add a sweetener like honey, stevia, or sugar, or other herbs to make an interesting and more flavorful hemp tea. 

How to Prepare a Soothing Cup of CBD-infused Tea

The best CBD tea can be enjoyed hot or cold. But to improve the bioavailability (absorption in your body so the phytochemical can have an active effect) of CBD, it’s recommended to add a fatty base to your tea when adding a CBD tincture or oil. 

CBD is hydrophobic, meaning it doesn’t mix well with water. So add some coconut oil, infused butter, or another fat to your tea to help absorb the CBD. You can, however, simply brew your tea and add a few drops of CBD, but the result will be less potent. 

You also need to brew the CBD-infused tea in hot water to activate the cannabinoid. Then, if you prefer an iced tea, chill it and serve over ice.
