Description
Bigelow Tea Lavender Chamomile Plus Probiotics Herbal Tea (Pack of 6) is a functional, wellness-focused nighttime tea bundle designed to support both relaxation and digestive health. Part of Bigelow's "Plus" line, it combines a classic sleep-inducing herbal blend with a patented, heat-stable probiotic strain to deliver dual-action health benefits in a comforting hot drink.
What Comes in the Bundle?
- Quantity: You receive a bulk Pack of 6 boxes.
- Tea Bags Per Box: Each box contains 18 tea bags, giving the entire bundle a total yield of 108 tea bags.
- Signature Foil Packaging: Every tea bag is individually sealed in an airtight foil pouch. This keeps moisture out and protects the aromatic lavender oils and delicate probiotic cultures from degrading over time.
Key Ingredients & Functional Benefits
This blend stands out because it targets two major pillars of wellness—the mind and the gut—simultaneously:
- BC30 Probiotics (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086): The standout functional addition. BC30 is a unique, patented strain of good bacteria designed with a naturally protective outer shell. This allows it to withstand the boiling water of your tea and the harsh acids of your stomach, arriving safely in your digestive tract to support daily digestive balance.
- Whole Chamomile Flowers & Lavender: The primary relaxation drivers. High-quality chamomile flowers are paired with real lavender pieces to create a deeply soothing, aromatic floral experience. Lavender is rich in linalool, an aromatic compound widely used to reduce anxiety, slow the heart rate, and prepare the mind for deep sleep.
- The Herbal Foundation: Grounded with a smooth blend of rosehips, hibiscus, and a touch of sweet licorice root to round out the floral notes and provide a clean, naturally sweet finish.
Dietary & Quality Highlights
- Naturally Caffeine-Free: Because this is an all-herbal formulation, it is 100% stimulant-free and specifically engineered to be a soothing addition to an evening bedtime ritual.
- Clean-Label Standards: Free from artificial colors, artificial flavors, and preservatives.
- Certifications: Certified Gluten-Free, Non-GMO Project Verified, and Kosher Parve.
- Zero Calories: Contains 0g of sugar and 0 calories per serving when enjoyed plain.
How to Prepare It
To properly activate the probiotics and extract the essential floral oils:
- Bring fresh, cold water to a rolling boil.
- Pour 8 fluid ounces of boiling water directly over 1 tea bag in a mug.
- Steep for 4 to 6 minutes.
- Pro-Tip: Cover the top of your mug with a small saucer or lid while it steeps. This traps the aromatic lavender steam, ensuring the calming essential oils stay inside your cup.
- Remove the bag and enjoy. It has a beautiful, soft floral sweetness on its own, but a light drizzle of honey complements the lavender beautifully.
