How to brew it

How to brew Kadha Tonic

01Hot

Amount
1 tsp (about 3g)
Water
Freshly boiled, 100°C
Time
3 minutes

Strain and taste plain first. Shorter next time if ginger feels too forceful.

02Stronger cup

Amount
1 heaped tsp
Water
Freshly boiled, 100°C

A longer steep draws more spice. Good on truly miserable nights.

03Iced

Amount
2 tsp per 250ml
Water
Freshly boiled, 100°C
Time
4 minutes, then chill

Brew strong, cool completely, pour over ice. Surprising and refreshing.

Shop tip: Use a fine-mesh strainer or an infuser with small holes, as the safflower petals and spice fragments are delicate.

Made for moments like

Rainy commute recovery

Coat off, kettle on, steep a cup while your socks dry on the radiator. The ginger takes the chill off.

Evening wind-down

No caffeine, plenty of warmth. A proper drink for after dinner when coffee would keep you awake.

Under the weather

When you want something warming to wrap your hands around, this does the job nicely.

Good questions

Things people ask us in the shop

What does Kadha Tonic taste like?

Warm up your tea ritual with Kadha Tonic. Ginger, tulsi and aromatic spice create a generous herbal cup, rounded with apple and orange and finished with a lively peppery lift. Inspired by South Asian kadha-style preparations, this is Porter Hill’s own flavourful blend. Naturally caffeine-free, it is made for slow mornings, cosy afternoons and anyone who loves a little spice in their cup.

Does Kadha Tonic contain caffeine?

This herbal infusion is naturally caffeine-free.

Should I add milk or honey?

Best without milk. A little honey is fine if you like sweetness, but taste it plain first. The cinnamon and apple already bring a gentle sweetness.

How many cups will I get from a pouch?

At about 3g per cup, 50g makes roughly 16 cups and 100g about 33 cups. Adjust the amount to suit your taste.

How should I store it?

Keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry cupboard away from strong smells like coffee or spices. It will stay fresh for many months stored properly.
