Should I drink Over The Moon at a specific time?
The benefits of herbal teas are believed to build up over time. Given this, it's probably best to drink Over The Moon every day.
Can I drink And Breathe and Over The Moon if pregnant?
It is not recommended to consume Ashwagandha whilst pregnant or breastfeeding, so we would not recommend And Breathe... in this stage of life.
There is a limited amount of research for the reasons why, so the advice is to avoid it given the lack of evidence.
If you become pregnant whilst drinking Over The Moon, we recommend stopping. It contains raspberry leaf, which isn't recommended by the NHS until you are 32 weeks pregnant. This is because it stimulates and tones your uterine muscles. So you should wait until you are 32 weeks pregnant to drink, or alternatively move on to our The Final Push Raspberry Leaf tea which is perfect for birth preparation.
Can ashwagandha help with stress?
Ashwagandha has been used in Ayurvedic culture to treat stress and anxiety, and has strong traditional links to aiding sleep and bringing calm.
Cacao can continue to support this.
Is this hot chocolate suitable for menopause?
Yes, this hot chocolate is a great natural support to perimenopause and post-menopause. When stress hits, the ayuverdic spices in the cacao blend can support calm, sleep and de-stressing.
How can this hot chocolate help PMS?
You need to nourish your body during your period, and this hot chocolate blend contains cacao, ashwagandha and anti-inflammatory spices that are all a great support to relaxation, and a healthy chocoalte hit for any cravings you have.
Is this hot chocolate suitable for vegetarians?
Yes, this hot chocolate is vegetarian and vegan friendly.
Can it be made as a chilled drink?
This drink is best enjoyed as a hot beverage. You can drink it cold however, but we wouldn't recommend it, as the spices may not dissolve fully, and give the chocolate a gritty consistency.

Each of our packs has simple instructions on it, but essentially you should use 1 tea bag per person, and freshly boiled water for all except Head Start. This tea works best with 80-degree water (let your kettle sit for 5 minutes with the lid open after boiling). Brew for 3-5 minutes depending on how strong you like it.

-
Use 1 bag per 300ml of water (this is the average size of a water glass) Add freshly boiled water, as if you were making a normal cuppa. Place the glass, with the tea bag still in, in your fridge to cool. Enjoy once cool - add lots of ice and fruit if you're feeling fancy.
