Bright, Bold, and Balanced: CBD Earl Grey Tea by CBTea Product Review 

The only thing more soothing than a good cup of tea, is a cup of tea blended with CBD. In this product review, we explore the CBD Earl Grey Tea by CBTea, a luxurious infusion designed to elevate your tea-drinking experience. 

CBD has been used for centuries as an herbal remedy to support well-being, but oftentimes must be mixed into oil-based elixirs. A water soluble CBD tea is not only convenient but is an innovative approach to enhancing bioavailability. This can aid CBD in further supporting both digestive health and nervous system balance. A cup of CBD tea is a brilliant way to rise and shine, without feeling overstimulated, making it an ideal choice to start your day or keep you going through the afternoon stretch. 

About the CBD Earl Grey Tea by CBTea

A low dose of CBD in the morning can bring balance to your day without feeling over energized, and may even counteract the buzzing effects of caffeine. This makes CBD the perfect ingredient to infuse into tea. 

The CBD Earl Grey Tea by CBTea offers a modern twist on a timeless classic. This 250mg cold-pressed full-spectrum CBD blend, presented in a 100g tin, combines the bold, citrusy essence of bergamot and black tea with the calming properties of hemp extract. With 10mg of CBD per 2g serving, this loose-leaf tea provides an aromatic and balanced experience, perfect for those seeking a tranquil but uplifting CBD beverage experience.

What makes this drink so unique is the cold-pressed CBD extraction method used to create the hemp concentrate. This preserves a broader range of cannabinoids and terpenes for a more potent full-spectrum experience. Not only does this improve bioavailability, but it also reduces energy consumption during production, making it a more sustainable choice as well.

CBTea offers a variety of tea blends in either 250mg or 125mg strengths (50g tins), including:

• English Breakfast
• Chamomile and Mint Tea
• Berry Fruit Tea
• Lemon and Lime Green Tea

With 100g of loose-leaf tea making up to 20-30 cups, each cup contains an estimated 6.25mg of CBD per 2.5g serving.

Trying CBTea’s CBD Earl Grey Tea

Upon opening the canister, the scent of warm sweet black tea leaves filled the air. They are a beautiful brown colour with delicate indigo cornflower petals blended into this mix for a twist on the classic earl grey. 

Cornflower petals are not only so precious and a vivid pop of colour – they are also beneficial! This flower not only has anti-inflammatory properties, but they are also known as a digestive and diuretic aid. Some studies have suggested that cornflower may even regulate blood sugar levels, boost immunity, and even reduce fever. They are an excellent herb when it comes to selfcare, offering soothing effects for the skin, a good dose of hydrosol to promote hair growth and health.

Pairing the effects of hemp derived cannabinoids and cornflower makes for an unmatched soothing and nourishing herbal experience. These plants work together to gently balance your body and mind. 

As someone who appreciates a warming cup of tea to start the day, I was eager to see how this blend would compare to my usual brew. I prepared my tea by steeping 2.5g of loose-leaf tea at 76°C (170°F) for 2-3 minutes. The result was a rich amber infusion with a creamy mouthfeel and a slightly sweet, floral finish. This was a premium tea experience reminiscent of high-end loose-leaf brands.

It took roughly 20-30 minutes to notice the effects. It was initially pleasant making me feel serene and excited for the day ahead. I felt more emotional and mental well-being support with this product than any physical relief. But, anyone looking for that extra boost could even try pairing this with a CBD cookie or edible for an extra special treat (anytime of day). 

Pros and Cons

What I love about this cold-pressed CBD tea by CBtea

The exceptional quality of the ingredients is undeniable in this CBD product. Each ingredient is fresh, flavourful, and visually stunning. The gentle CBD effects make this a fantastic option for those who prefer a milder morning experience without overwhelming sedation. Additionally, the cold-pressed CBD extract sets this tea apart from others. This extract offers a more well-rounded and balanced effect compared to other CBD edibles.

I would be curious to see the long term difference between this and other CBD teas. My hunch is that this one may have a more well-rounded, less heady effect than other teas infused with isolates or distillate CBD extracts. 

Things to know before using this loose leaf blend

Before brewing a cup at home, you will need a tea ball or strainer to prepare this tea. To maintain freshness and potency, store the tea in a cool, dry place away from heat. Additionally, since this product does not have a safety seal, it should be kept out of reach of children.
