The Art of Herbal Tea Blending: Create Balanced Herbal Blends is a beginner-friendly 1-hour live online class designed to introduce students to the fundamentals of creating flavorful, balanced, and thoughtfully designed herbal tea blends. The class explores how individual herbs can be combined based on flavor, aroma, appearance, traditional use, and overall blending goals.
Students will learn the basic characteristics of common herbal tea ingredients and discover how to identify complementary herbs when developing a blend. The class introduces practical concepts such as base herbs, supporting herbs, accent herbs, flavor balancing, proportions, preparation methods, and simple blend testing.
Through guided examples and hands-on activities, students will have an opportunity to develop their own basic herbal tea blend concept. Emphasis is placed on responsible ingredient selection, proper labeling, sanitation, storage, and recognizing situations in which certain herbs may not be appropriate.
