The Amazon´s Supertea
Guayusa Tea
For centuries the native people of Ecuador´s Amazon have brewed this supertea at dawn in preparation for their daily routine. Guayusa matches the caffeine in coffee without the jitters. Guayusa has twice the amount of antioxidants as green tea. And like cacao, Guayusa helps to lower blood pressure. This is truly a miracle leaf and 98% of the production comes from Ecuador. Enjoy our guayusa tea powder as a tea, in your favorite smoothie, over a bowl of fruit or as a guayusa tea latte.
