Frequently Asked Questions

About Our Teas

What is Lauretta's British Ginger T?

Lauretta's British Ginger T is a collection of bold, naturally caffeine-free ginger-based herbal infusions established in 2021 to support immunity, vitality, and daily energy. The brand was founded by Lauretta after an extensive search for a ginger tea potent enough to meet her needs during pregnancy came up short — she began brewing her own from fresh ginger root, and it has been part of her daily routine ever since.

Where do your ingredients come from?

We source real, whole ingredients — including ginger grown on Hawaii's Kauai Island — and support local farmers at our home base in Costa Rica. Our approach follows a "Farm to Cup" philosophy: ingredients sourced with intention, not artificial extracts or flavorings.

Are your teas organic?

Yes. Our ginger root and botanical blends are organic. Specific sourcing and ingredient details are listed on each individual product page.

Is Lauretta's British Ginger T caffeine-free?

Our ginger-based infusions are naturally caffeine-free. A small number of items in the collection — including our Japanese Matcha and Chinese Dragon Well (Sencha) — do contain caffeine; please refer to the relevant product page if this is a consideration for you.

How strong is the tea, and how should I brew it?

Our ginger root tea is crafted to be potent. A 4oz bag yields approximately 60 cups. We recommend adjusting steep time to suit your preference, and starting with a shorter steep if you are new to ginger tea.

How is it best enjoyed?

Our teas can be enjoyed hot or cold, depending on preference. Many customers enjoy it hot with honey in the morning, while others prefer it chilled on a warm afternoon.

Can ginger tea help with nausea?

Ginger has long been used as a natural aid for nausea, including during pregnancy, and this is part of the story behind our brand. We are not able to offer medical advice, and recommend consulting your physician before introducing any new herbal product into your routine, particularly during pregnancy or if you are managing a health condition.
