Bella Granata Pomegranate Tea is a type of Fruit Tisane. It combines apple and exotic fruits pieces with hibiscus, marigolds, pineapple flakes and vibrant red pomegranate blossoms.
The result is an intensely fruity infusion with a pleasant, refreshing aftertaste. Best of all, we pack it fresh to order, thus ensuring quality and consistency with every cuppa brewed.
It’s also worth noting that Bella Granata Pomegranate Tea contains no leaves from the Camellia sinensis (Tea) plant. This means that it isn’t a “Tea” in the conventional sense, although we have long treated it as such.
The absence of these leaves, though, means that it is 100% caffeine-free. This makes it an excellent choice for those looking to cut down their caffeine intake.

The Benefits of this Tea
Hibiscus is the star ingredient when it comes to the health benefits of Bella Granata Pomegranate Tea. Although it can’t offer you the same qualities as a pure, standalone Hibiscus Tea, it can, at the very least, slightly help those with high blood pressure.
One study saw sixty-five people aged between 30 to 70, all of whom were considered “at-risk” from high blood pressure, split into two groups.
The first group of participants consumed Hibiscus three times a day, while the second group consumed a placebo. After six weeks, the results determined that the Hibiscus Group “showed an average fall of 7.2 per cent in blood pressure, with some recording a 13.2 per cent drop. The placebo group, in comparison, recorded a 1.3 per cent drop”.
