LCurator note · Twinings
The middle-ground lemon-ginger: 37 percent ginger gives real warmth without the ferocity of the Teapigs version, and lemongrass plus lemon keep it bright, while fennel and blackberry leaf are deliberately there to sand off the harsh acidic edge cheaper blends have. That smoothness is its genuine selling point, it is the easy, balanced everyday one rather than the fieriest or the sharpest. The fennel adds a faint aniseed note, worth knowing. Caffeine-free; ignore the metabolism and reset-button talk and drink it as a reliable, well-rounded daily warmer.

About this tea

Twinings Lemon and Ginger, in brief.

Twinings Lemon and Ginger is a caffeine-free herbal infusion built on ginger root and lemongrass with lemon peel and natural lemon flavouring, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection as the classic warming citrus alternative to a plain peppermint or a plain camomile cup.

The ginger does the heat-lifting work, giving the cup its familiar warming bite that distinguishes a lemon-and-ginger from a plain lemon herbal, while the lemongrass and lemon peel sit on top as the citrus pair, the lemongrass providing the grassy citrus underpinning and the peel adding the brighter sharper top note. Twinings have kept the ginger strong enough to feel in the throat without tipping medicinal, and the pyramid format gives the roots and peel room to open during the brew.

A high-street lemon-and-ginger at an accessible price compared to specialist ginger root infusions, the recipe a sensible winter warmer that takes a slice of fresh lemon and a teaspoon of honey beautifully if you want to stretch a cup into a proper hot toddy of a herbal.

Read the full write-up

Twinings Lemon and Ginger Tea serves as a daily dose of vitality for the herbal tea drinker who needs an uplifting boost without the caffeine crash. While the Spiced Ginger blend focuses on intense heat, this infusion is designed to be "liquid sunshine." By marrying the spicy warmth of ginger (37%) with the high notes of lemongrass and natural lemon flavouring, Twinings has created a

The Story Behind the Twinings

Twinings was founded by Thomas Twining in 1706 at 216 Strand, London, where the original shop still operates today, making it the world's oldest continuously operating tea shop. The Twining family ran the business for nine generations and Stephen Twining is the current ambassador. Twinings was granted a Royal Warrant by Queen Victoria in 1837 and supplies tea to the UK Royal Household today.

Our Commitment To The Planet

Twinings is a leader in providing authentic tea infusions that respect traditional botanical sourcing and modern sustainability.

  • Sourced With Care: This programme focuses on improving living standards in communities that grow our herbs. By choosing this ethical tea, you support the livelihoods of the farmers who cultivate these premium citrus and root ingredients.

  • Packaging: Follow the current UK pack and local-authority guidance; components can require different disposal routes.

The Revitalising Hot Serve Brewing Guide

  • Measure: Use one individual lemon ginger tea bag per cup (approximately 200ml).

  • Pour: Use freshly boiled water. The high temperature is essential to activate the dried lemon peel and lemongrass.

  • Steep: Infuse for 2 to 3 minutes for a balanced, zesty cup. Leave for up to 5 minutes if you want to extract maximum ginger heat for a tea for colds.

  • Herbalist Tip: Cover your mug while steeping. Lemon oils are highly volatile and will evaporate in the steam if left uncovered.

The Zesty Iced Lemonade Brewing Guide

  • The Prep: Steep 2 bags in 200ml of boiling water for 5 minutes to create a concentrated citrus base.

  • The Chill: Remove bags and allow the liquid to cool completely.

  • The Serve: Pour over a tall glass of ice and top with still or sparkling water. Add a slice of fresh cucumber or mint for a hydrating caffeine free iced tea.

The "Cold Buster" Honey Tonic Brewing Guide

  • Why Try It: This is the most popular alternative way to drink this blend, acting as a non alcoholic "Hot Toddy" for days when you feel under the weather.

  • The Concentrate: Steep 2 bags in a large mug of boiling water for 4 minutes.

  • The Boost: Stir in a teaspoon of high quality Manuka honey and a pinch of cayenne pepper or turmeric.

  • The Result: The honey coats the throat while the pepper amplifies the ginger's heat, creating the ultimate cup tea ritual.

Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

To unlock the full potential of your twinings lemon and ginger, specific hydration techniques are recommended. The dried citrus peel needs hot water to rehydrate and release its zest, while the ginger root needs time to impart its warmth. Please find our expert instructions below for a revitalising hot serve, a thirst quenching iced tea, or our famous "Cold Buster" tonic.
