JusTea Turmeric Ginger Loose Leaf Herbal Tea

While you can steep it like regular tea, you'll get much better results if you simmer it. Several reviewers discovered that just steeping in hot water gives a lighter flavor, but gently simmering the tea for a few minutes extracts the full depth of the turmeric, ginger, and spices. The good news is it's very forgiving—it doesn't get bitter even with extended brewing, so you can experiment to find your preferred strength.

Surprisingly, no. Even though licorice is listed in the ingredients, multiple reviewers specifically mention being pleasantly surprised that the licorice flavor is minimal or barely noticeable. What you'll taste instead is a balanced blend of ginger warmth, earthy turmeric, and a light citrus note from the lemongrass. The ginger provides a pleasant bite without being overwhelming.

Absolutely. It comes with clear brewing instructions and a hand-carved wooden measuring spoon, so there's no guessing. The flavor is balanced and approachable—not too spicy or medicinal—and reviewers note you can actually see the fresh, whole ingredients in the tin, which is reassuring. Plus, since it doesn't get bitter, you won't ruin a cup if you steep it a bit too long while you're learning.

You'll get a fresh, clean cup with a moderate ginger spiciness that's warming but not harsh. The turmeric adds an earthy, slightly peppery base, while the lemongrass brings subtle citrus notes. When you brew it, expect a vibrant golden-yellow color. Reviewers consistently describe it as tasting natural and fresh—you can tell you're drinking real spices, not artificial flavoring.

The reusable tin is beautiful and keeps the tea fresh, plus it comes with that wooden spoon which reviewers love. Fair warning though: one reviewer mentioned the lid can be quite difficult to remove at first. On the price side, the tin is on the expensive side for the amount you get, but the bulk refill bags are much more reasonably priced once you have the tin.

Many reviewers use it exactly that way. Since it's caffeine-free, you can drink it any time of day. The fresh ginger and turmeric are appealing if you're looking for functional benefits, and several people mention drinking it regularly for digestion or as part of their wellness routine. The fact that it tastes genuinely good (not medicinal) makes it easy to stick with as a daily habit.
