America's Forgotten Supertea
We are blessed by America’s ancient, native supertea called yaupon (pronounced yo-pon). It’s smooth tasting (tannin-free), uplifting (caffeinated and rich in antioxidants), and sustainable (American grown).
Yaupon's Super Powers
For centuries, yaupon tea has been forgotten. Once a popular drink consumed by Native Americans, the great taste and health benefits of yaupon tea have been consistently overlooked throughout history, resulting in a lost American treasure.
As the only caffeinated plant native to North America, yaupon is a superfood combining caffeine and theobromine (also found in cocoa beans) to provide a jitter-free lift and enhanced mood and mental focus. It is also rich in antioxidants and polyphenols to help boost immunity and improve metabolic function.
Our yaupon is sustainably grown, meaning it is wild-harvested, organic, rain-fed, and uses no pesticides or chemicals of any kind. It also has a smaller carbon footprint from less transportation and less intensive production methods compared to other caffeinated teas.
Don't take our word for it!
Yaupon tea and its health benefits have been consumed and celebrated by Native Americans for more than 1,000 years.
Today, research has confirmed that yaupon contains the following heath benefits:
-
Natural & Jitter-free lift
Naturally combines caffeine, theobromine (found in cocoa beans), theacrine, and theophylline
-
Antioxidants & polyphenols
Chlorogenic acids: Protect against heart disease, diabetes, and obesity
Rutin: Reduces inflammation and supports brain function
Saponins: Helps regulate cholesterol levels
Flavonoids: Provide anti-inflammatory and chemo-preventative effects
In freedom we trust
For centuries, we were led to believe that tea must be grown and shipped from the other side of the world, when we have a delicious supertea right in our backyard.
Today, we celebrate American culture and biodiversity with yaupon iced tea.
Let's free our iced tea from centuries of tea marketing tyranny with iced tea grown and brewed right here in America.
