T-shirts? Sure\u2014but maybe tank tops speak to with even more seduction. Flip-flops thwack as you walk from car to grocery store, your dogs just want to sprawl on the cool living room floor and popsicles call to kids and adults alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With months of summer heat stretched out before us\u2014the season officially began on Friday\u2014it\u2019s time to figure out ways to swan through the swelter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One easy hack? Teas that cool us down. The ingredients that people incorporate into tea cover an immense swath of botanicals\u2014everything from <em>Camellia sinensis<\/em> to cinnamon to elderflower. Some of them get tapped to help bodies navigate days and nights when they turn torrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tea traditions that tame the heat.<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/AdobeStock_996192399-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/AdobeStock_996192399-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/AdobeStock_996192399-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/AdobeStock_996192399-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/AdobeStock_996192399-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/AdobeStock_996192399-2048x1152.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/AdobeStock_996192399-1600x900.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Traditional_Chinese_medicine\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM<\/mark>)<\/a> touches on a variety of protocols for dealing with lofty temperatures. After all, China contains a multitude of ecosystems and climates\u2014and some of them sizzle for much of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One easy tip? Avoid ice-cold beverages. In TCM, tea is sipped hot or just slightly chilled year-round\u2014never frigid. The belief is that cold beverages interfere with digestion. Traditional Chinese Medicine also recommends green, lemon, mint and chrysanthemum teas for summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, people in blazing climates often sip hot drinks because doing so precipitates sweating\u2014which is key to the body\u2019s natural way of managing heat. As the sweat evaporates, people cool down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the season of swimming, sunbathing and sandals upon us, let\u2019s dive deep into a selection of teas that we think will help you embrace the parade of heat before us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teas for Cooling Down: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/product\/Chrysanthemum-(Org)\/1231\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Chrysanthemum<\/mark><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"493\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chrysanthemum.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5121\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chrysanthemum.jpeg 493w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chrysanthemum-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chrysanthemum-150x150.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 493px) 100vw, 493px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Chrysanthemum on its own\u2014try it! <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Few botanicals offer as many health advantages as chrysanthemum, a flower native to East Asia and northeastern Europe. Chrysanthemums, also known as simply mums, find their greatest diversity in China\u2014and no culture has explored and celebrated chrysanthemum like the Chinese.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chinese people tap chrysanthemum, which they call Ju Jua and brew as a tea, to help mitigate headaches and dizziness. They treat colds and flus with Ju Jua, lubricate dry eyes with it and even leverage it to lower blood pressure. Chrysanthemum tea, too, serves as spectacular calming botanical; people sip it to cope with stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it\u2019s also widely celebrated for its ability to help keep the body cool during summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We add chrysanthemum to several of our blends, including organic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/product\/Chrysanthemum-Green-Tea-(Organic)\/507\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Chrysanthemum Green Tea<\/mark><\/a>.

And what do Moroccans drink, in vast abundance? Green tea! Specifically, blends containing a kind of green tea called gunpowder combined with mint.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The style, known globally as Moroccan mint tea, combines two classic cool-down ingredients\u2014green tea and mint\u2014in one drink. Moroccans drink so much of it that the country ranks 7th in the world for per capita tea consumption. For them, tea symbolizes hospitality, friendship and social gatherings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We adore sipping our blend of Chinese gunpowder tea with spearmint\u2014especially in summer. When sipped at room temperature or gently cooled with an ice cube, we find that it helps us deal with stifling summer temperatures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moroccans spike their brews\u2014liberally\u2014with sugar. We think the sweetener is optional, and might prefer honey. No matter how you savor Moroccan Mint, however, you\u2019ll love it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teas for Cooling Down: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/product\/Cloud-Chaser-Herbal-Blend-(Organic)\/414\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Cloud Chaser (Organic)<\/mark><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"493\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/ht_cloudchaser_02.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/ht_cloudchaser_02.jpg 493w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/ht_cloudchaser_02-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/ht_cloudchaser_02-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 493px) 100vw, 493px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>It&#8217;s time to sip some Cloud Chaser\u2014to cool down and de-stress.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The lemon balm and peppermint in this dreamy tea help our bodies adjust to climbing temperatures. But it also contains classic calming botanicals, like lavender and rose petals. And then there\u2019s St. John\u2019s Wort, a flowering plant native to much of Europe and Asia, as well as parts of Africa. Today, it\u2019s widespread in the temperate parts of the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Naturopathic doctors commonly advise people struggling with depression or stress to take St. John\u2019s Wort. We think the herb\u2019s inclusion in this heat-beating blend is one of the tea\u2019s secret weapons. Just as other botanicals lend a hand to a too-warm body, the St. John\u2019s Wort ratchets back the stress.
