Boil a stalk of serai in water and you have a drink Malaysian households have been making for generations. Simple, warm, faintly lemony, the kind of thing someone puts in front of you when you have eaten too much or the afternoon has worn you down.

TANAMERA Lemongrass With Ginger Tea is that drink in a sachet. Two tropical herbs, nothing else: lemongrass for its light citrus brightness, ginger for a gentle warmth underneath. Naturally caffeine-free, so it suits late evenings as easily as mid-morning. 20 sachets per box, 20g each.

  • Lemongrass
  • Ginger
  • Steep one sachet in freshly boiled water for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add honey or a squeeze of lemon if you like, though it is pleasant plain.
  • Enjoy warm, or chill it over ice for a hot afternoon.
  • Soothes and calm the digestive system 
  • Light lemony taste, with slight hint of ginger to lift up sagging spirit. 
  • Studies show that Lemongrass has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. 
  1. Does lemongrass tea contain caffeine?
    No. It is a herbal infusion made from lemongrass and ginger, with no tea leaf in it at all, so it is naturally caffeine-free and fine in the evening.
  2. What does lemongrass tea taste like?
    Light and gently citrusy, more floral than sour, with a soft warmth from the ginger. Much milder than most people expect.
  3. Can I drink it every day?
    Yes, it is an everyday herbal tea. Most people have a cup or two a day, often after meals or in the evening.
  4. Is this the same as teh halia?
    No. Teh halia is the milky, sweetened ginger tea served at mamak stalls, made with black tea and condensed milk. This is a clear herbal infusion with no tea leaf, no milk and no sugar.
  5. Can I drink it iced?
    It is very good iced. Brew it at double strength, then pour over a full glass of ice so it does not come out watery.
  6. Can I add milk?
    You can, though the lemongrass works better with honey or a squeeze of lemon. Milk tends to flatten the citrus note.
  7. Is lemongrass tea safe during pregnancy?
    Please check with your doctor or midwife before adding any herbal tea to your routine during pregnancy. For the postpartum period specifically, TANAMERA’s post natal care range includes a herbal tea formulated for that stage.
  8. Can children drink it?
    It is caffeine-free and mild, but check with your doctor before giving herbal teas to young children.
  9. Can I reuse a sachet?
    A second steep gives a much weaker cup. Better to use one sachet per cup, or brew a stronger pot and keep it for later.
  10. How should I store the sachets? Somewhere cool and dry with the box closed, away from strong-smelling foods, since dried herbs pick up surrounding odours easily.

Please refer to the ingredients list carefully and check for any ingredients that you may be allergic or sensitive to before use.

TANAMERA lemongrass with ginger tea

What lemongrass tea tastes like, and when to reach for it

If you have never had it, expect something lighter than you might imagine. Lemongrass gives a clean citrus note without the sourness of actual lemon, more floral than sharp, and the ginger sits beneath it as warmth rather than heat. It is not a spicy tea. Nothing about it bites.

That mildness is what makes it so easy to drink at odd hours. It has no caffeine, so an evening cup will not keep you up, and it is light enough after a heavy meal when another coffee would be too much. On a hot afternoon, brewed strong and poured over ice, it becomes something else entirely, closer to a cordial than a tea.

In Malaysian homes serai has always been a kitchen herb first, bruised into curries and simmered into soups. Drinking it is the same ingredient in a quieter form. If you enjoy the scent as much as the taste, the same herb appears as lemongrass essential oil on the aromatherapy side of the range, and the rest of the tea collection carries other tropical blends.

Brewing it properly, hot or iced

A herbal infusion is more forgiving than real tea, which never turns bitter the way over-steeped leaves do. Still, a few things make a difference.

  • Use water off the boil, not boiled dry. Freshly boiled is right. Water that has sat in a flask all morning gives a flatter cup.
  • Give it the full five to seven minutes. Herbs release more slowly than tea leaves. Pulling the sachet out after two minutes leaves most of the flavour behind.
  • Cover the cup while it steeps. The aromatics that make lemongrass smell good are volatile, and a saucer over the top keeps them in the cup rather than in the air.
  • For iced, brew it double strength. Use one sachet in half the usual water, steep, then pour over a full glass of ice. Brewing at normal strength and adding ice gives you a watery drink.
