Moon Tea | 100% Natural Premium Menstrual Tea

Who Are You? 

Hi! This is me, Charmaine, the founder of “Moon Tea!”

Why Tea?

I was 6 months pregnant with my second child when this photo was taken, after we sat for afternoon tea at The Langham. 

“I have been a passionate herbal tea drinker for as long as I can remember. I believe that there is no event, mood or ailment that can’t be made a little better without drinking tea.”

Why Menstrual Tea? 

When my periods returned after birth I began to experience significant lows that affected every aspect of my life. This led to the unfortunate diagnosis that I have a condition called PMDD, a pre menstrual dysphoric disorder that is like PMS, only so so much worse. 

Treating PMS with herbs

Having PMS/ PMDD affects your physical, mental and emotional health. It can be debilitating. I started medicating with herbs and began to develop a deeper understanding of how herbalism can benefit women’s menstrual health in general.

Bringing both my passions for tea and herbs with my struggles with PMDD is what led me to “Moon Tea.”

What Is Moon Tea?

With the continuing rise of health and wellness trends, Millennial and Gen Z women are turning to alternative caffeine-free beverages including herbal teas due to their medicinal and healing properties. 

“The herbal tea market is set to grow with almost 70% of the growth being driven by female tea drinkers.”

Moon Tea is a niche wellness tea that is used by women and those who suffer with menstrual health issues during the course of their menstrual cycle.

The goal is to create a cool modern premium herbal tea brand that promotes the natural and holistic practice of treating women’s health. 

Moon Tea ultimately wants to help every woman with menstrual issues and is interested in the healing practices of herbal tea drinking.
