What is Jiaogulan?
Jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum) is a climbing plant from the cucumber family. Its leaves are dried and used to prepare a caffeine-free herbal infusion.
The plant is also known by names such as sweet tea vine, fairy herb and southern ginseng. Despite the latter name, Jiaogulan is not a true ginseng botanically.
What does Jiaogulan taste like?
Jiaogulan has a soft, green and slightly herbal flavor with a natural sweetness that may somewhat resemble licorice. Since this infusion consists exclusively of Jiaogulan, you can taste the herb's character in its pure form.
Jiaogulan naturally contains no caffeine, making it an interesting choice for anyone who wants to enjoy a pure herbal infusion at any time of day.
