30 September 2025

Calendula, also known as pot marigold, is a vibrant flowering plant long celebrated in herbal medicine. Beyond its striking golden petals, calendula is commonly brewed into a soothing herbal tea or used in natural remedies for its healing properties.

At OzTea, we include calendula as a key ingredient in our Royal Blend black tea, offering both great taste and potential wellness benefits.

Calendula tea contains plant compounds that act as powerful antioxidants, helping your body defend against free radical damage and supporting overall wellness.
