Tea, herbal, infusion

Herbal tea is a drink made by steeping herbs or other plant material in water. The figures here describe the prepared infusion, rather than the dry ingredients. It consists mainly of water and provides very little energy or other nutrients. Per 100g, it contains 3 kJ of energy, 0.2g of carbohydrate and 0g of sugars.

The water in herbal tea contributes to fluid intake, which supports normal body functions. The infusion contains only trace amounts of fat, saturated fat and salt. Adding sugar or honey changes its sugar and energy content. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
