Bigelow Expands Probiotics Tea Line

Bigelow Tea has expanded its probiotics line of teas that support everyday digestion to include Green Tea with Ginger Plus Probiotics and Lavender Chamomile Plus Probiotics Herbal Tea. The two new teas join Bigelow’s first product in the probiotics line, Lemon Ginger Plus Probiotics Herbal Tea.

Bigelow Green Tea with Ginger Plus Probiotics combines probiotics with delicate green tea, a zesty hint of ginger and sweet spices. Bigelow Lavender Chamomile Plus Probiotics Herbal Tea blends probiotics with the relaxing lavender, soothing chamomile and subtle notes of honey. The Original Bigelow Lemon Ginger Plus Probiotics Herbal Tea brings together probiotics with a gentle mingling of lemongrass, lemon verbena and warm ginger.

“The idea of adding probiotics to hot tea seemed counter intuitive at first” recalls Cindi Bigelow, president and CEO of family-owned Bigelow Tea. “It had never been done. But based on consumer interest in probiotics and our passion for tea, we were determined to create a flavourful and delicious product that would deliver enough active probiotics — in a tea bag!”

Master tea blenders at Bigelow Tea have developed flavourful blends that combine Ganeden BC30 Probiotics (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086), with premium quality, all-natural ingredients. Designed to support and add value every day to a regular healthy lifestyle, these soothing teas can be enjoyed anytime throughout the day, morning, noon and night.

“While all tea is inherently healthy, with today’s growing awareness for mindful eating and the need to live as healthy a lifestyle as we can, we created these beautiful and flavourful products to support our bodies naturally, in gentle ways with ingredients you know and trust,” says [Cindi] Bigelow. “Like all Bigelow teas, they are made with exceptional care by Bigelow family tea blenders here in the USA.

Green Tea with Ginger Plus Probiotics, Lavender Chamomile Plus Probiotics Herbal Tea and Lemon Ginger Plus Probiotics Herbal Tea Teas are available in 18-count boxes at grocery stores nationwide and online at bigelowtea.com. The MSRP is USD $3.19.

Based in Fairfield, Connecticut and 100% family owned, the Bigelow Tea Company produces two billion tea bags annually, including more than 130 varieties of flavoured, traditional, green, organic, herbal, decaffeinated and wellness teas – including its flagship specialty tea flavour, “Constant Comment.”
