Liver Happy Dandelion Tea — Organic Ayurvedic Blend
Four traditional roots anchor every bag of this organic dandelion root tea: dandelion, turmeric, sarsaparilla and burdock, brightened with tulsi, ginger and lemongrass. Liver Happy brews woody and a little bitter, the way root-tea fans like it, and it's caffeine-free and USDA Organic.
Why We Blend Four Traditional Roots
This is a roots blend. The traditions behind each ingredient are old and well-known.
Dandelion Root has a long history of use in Europe and Asia; earthy and slightly bitter, it is the backbone of this cup. Turmeric Root is known for curcumin, one of the curcuminoids from the rhizome of the turmeric plant, and brings the warming middle of the cup. Sarsaparilla Root has a place in folk traditions going back to the 16th century. Burdock Root is used by many cultures as a food and adds woody depth alongside the dandelion.
We add tulsi (holy basil), ginger root, lemongrass and a touch of stevia to round the cup, so the roots come through smooth and balanced rather than harsh.
What Dandelion Root Tea Tastes Like
🌱 First sip: Earthy roots — dandelion and burdock with that classic woody depth 🟡 Mid-palate: Warming turmeric and ginger 🌿 Finish: Bright tulsi and lemongrass, soft natural sweetness from stevia leaf
Our favorite add-ins:
- Honey + lemon — the classic finishing touch
- A pinch of black pepper — pairs naturally with turmeric
- Warm coconut milk — for a roots latte
How to Brew Dandelion Root Tea
Standard cup: Pour boiling water (200–212°F) over one tea bag. Steep 7–10 minutes — roots like a longer steep than leaves.
Stronger brew: Two bags, 12+ minutes. Press the bag with a spoon before removing.
Iced: Brew strong, cool, pour over ice with citrus.

A Note from Herbal Cup
This tea is roots through and through. Turmeric and ginger are staples of the Ayurvedic kitchen; dandelion, sarsaparilla and burdock come from folk traditions in Europe, Asia and the Americas. We put all of them in one tea bag with tulsi, lemongrass and a little stevia leaf, so a roots cup is as easy to make as any other tea.
