Twinings Tea

Awarded 3 out of 5 green leaves, Twinings Tea BioBlends Warming Lemon, Ginger & Turmeric is a middle-of-the-road choice for those seeking cleaner food options. This tea blend is not certified organic and does not exclusively use non-GMO ingredients, factors that have influenced its rating on our scale.

The product is composed of a mix of natural ingredients, with ginger being the predominant component at 50%. Other significant elements include natural lemon flavouring, turmeric, cinnamon, cloves, and liquorice root. The inclusion of Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6086, a probiotic, is a notable feature, although it only makes up 4% of the blend. The tea’s composition is rounded out by natural ginger flavouring.

The deduction of points for this tea stems from the presence of non-organic ingredients and the use of natural flavourings, which are viewed with caution due to their ambiguous nature. Although these flavourings are derived from natural sources, they have led to a substantial decrease in the product’s score because they are often perceived as a less desirable addition to food products.

The tea’s blend of spices and probiotics offers a combination of warmth and potential health benefits. However, the lack of organic certification and the presence of natural flavourings may deter consumers who prioritize pure, unadulterated ingredients. For those less stringent about organic certification and precise ingredient sourcing, this tea provides a moderate option within the vast market of wellness-focused products.

Twinings Tea BioBlends Warming Lemon, Ginger & Turmeric holds a middle ground in our ratings. It has not achieved the highest standards set by our evaluation criteria, yet it maintains a level of quality that merits a moderate endorsement for consumers seeking cleaner food options.
