One of our regular customers, Barbara, told us recently that she had replaced her dessert with Fruit Tisanes. Each evening, she makes a different tisane – Cotton Candy, Toasted Almond, South Pacific, Wolfberry Melon, Streudel, Cherry Jubilee…..She said she had now lost 10 lbs. with this one change in her diet. For Easter Sunday, she selected Rooibos Chocolate Chai as a special treat. What’s a fruit tisane? A blend of fruit, herbs, flavors, spices and flavoring, naturally without caffeine, usually with a fruity note to it. Some may have rooibos. Here’s Wolfberry Melon with the distinct pink/coral gojiberries in the picture and another (below) with a rooibos blend – Grand Tisane.

So have the orders for the fruit tisanes doubled since this posting about losing 10 pounds?? Even I bought the chocolate rooibos! And I add lemon to my organic rooibos.

You guessed it – they have!
Hi, I’m Barbara the person who is using the teas to lose weight. Just to give everyone an update, I have now lost 13 pounds on my “tea” diet. Instead of a snack shelf in my cupboard – I now have an entire shelf of different teas from Silver Tips – fruit teas, green teas & chocolate chai teas are my favorites. I have a big variety so that I never get bored & can pick a tea that I’m in the mood for. Tea is warm and comforting and takes a while to drink….it keeps my mouth busy without adding calories while I’m relaxing and watching tv at night & other times during the day when I need a pick me up. In addition, numerous studies show that it actually increases your metabolism and helps you lose weight. I’m happy to report – that it is working for me. I enjoy splurging on special teas – it is much better for my health – than buying snack food!
Barbara – that’s FANTASTIC! I hope you don’t mind my posting an update, of course without giving any personal information. Your story is so inspiring and helpful to so many. Keep it up. What’s your favorite tisane? I will have Jacque set aside 4 oz. for you as our way of saying Thanks!
