About Orange Spice

The Daily Comfort

If you grew up drinking "Constant Comment," this is the upgrade you have been waiting for. We take a robust organic Black Tea and blend it with the classic warming trio: Cinnamon, Cloves, and Orange Peel. But we didn't stop there. We added Crystallized Ginger for a spark of sweet heat, and Roasted Chicory Root to give the cup a deep, dark body.

Why It Works

The secret is the Chicory. Most spiced teas feel thin and watery. Chicory root (historically used in New Orleans coffee) adds a heavy, velvety mouthfeel that anchors the spices. This allows the zesty orange and the spicy ginger to shine without floating away. It is bold enough to wake you up, but cozy enough to settle you down.

The Simmer Ritual

Make the house smell good. On a slow morning, don't just steep this in a mug. Put a tablespoon in a small saucepan with milk (or oat milk) and simmer it gently for 10 minutes. The spices will infuse into the fat of the milk, creating a "Stovetop Chai" that beats any coffee shop latte.

Organic Ingredients
  • Organic Black Tea
  • Organic Orange Peel
  • Organic Cinnamon Bark
  • Organic Cloves
  • Organic Crystallized Ginger
  • Organic Roasted Chicory Root
Tasting Notes

Aroma: Nostalgic and warming. It smells like peeling a fresh orange next to a wood stove.

Flavor: Bold and textured. The maltiness of the black tea is deepened by the chicory, while the crystallized ginger adds a pop of sugary heat.

Finish: Long, sweet, and spicy.

Why You'll Love It

Crystallized Ginger: Unlike dried ginger root which is purely spicy, crystallized ginger is cooked in sugar. This adds a unique texture and a subtle sweetness that balances the tannins of the black tea.

Chicory Root: A prebiotic root that is roasted to taste like coffee. It adds a "bass note" to the tea, giving it a richness that feels like a meal.

Craft Your Cup

  • The Hot Toddy Base: This is the ultimate base for a Hot Toddy. Brew strong, add a shot of bourbon and a squeeze of lemon. The spices hold up perfectly against the alcohol.
  • Spiced Cider: Put 2 tablespoons of loose leaf into a tea bag and drop it into a pot of warming apple cider. It adds instant complexity.

Your Questions About Orange Spice, Answered.

Is this caffeinated?

Yes. It is based on organic Black Tea, so it has a healthy amount of caffeine. It is a fantastic morning alternative to coffee.

How do I make a tea latte?

Because this blend has Chicory, it is perfect for lattes. Brew it double-strength (use half the water you normally would), steep for 5 minutes, and top with frothed oat milk and a dash of honey.

What does chicory add?

Texture. Chicory gives the tea a "thick" feeling in the mouth, similar to coffee. It prevents the spices from tasting thin or watery.

FAQs Simply Answered

Are YBTCO’s Teas Truly Organic?

Yes, every ingredient we source is certified USDA Organic. Our commitment is to craft our blends using only teas and botanicals from growers whose agricultural practices steward a better tomorrow.

While Yerba Buena Tea Co. as a company has not yet completed its own formal USDA Organic certification, our standards for purity and sustainability are unwavering. When you sip our tea, you’re tasting a commitment to clean soil, fresh air, and the honest labor of growers who share our belief that tea should be as good for the earth as it is for your cup. You can taste this commitment in our Connoisseur Collection.

Where Are Your Teas Blended and Packaged?

Every YBTCO tea is hand-blended in small batches in our dedicated tea kitchen located in beautiful Salem, Oregon.

Our process is slow by design. Blending in small lots allows us to ensure every pouch delivers maximum freshness, flavor, and the just-picked aroma that makes our teas special. It's a level of craftsmanship you can taste in every cup, especially in our Connoisseur Collection. We package each order with care so you can enjoy a touch of the Pacific Northwest, wherever you are.

Do Your Teas Contain Allergens or Gluten?

Your safety and enjoyment matter deeply to us. All YBTCO teas are naturally gluten-free and blended in a dedicated facility that does not process tree nuts (except coconut), wheat, barley, or rye.

The only common allergen you’ll find in our collection is coconut, which we use in select blends like our Maven Blend for its creamy, tropical note. We use no added flavorings, colorings, or artificial ingredients, just whole leaves, spices, and botanicals as nature intended.

If you have specific questions or sensitivities, our team is always happy to help you find the perfect tea with peace of mind. Please feel free to contact us.

What Is Your Tea Refill?

We believe good tea, and good habits, should be sustainable. That’s why YBTCO offers our teas in two forms to reduce waste and keep your tea fresh:

  • Start with a Signature Tin: Our beautiful, reusable, and recyclable tins are perfect for keeping your tea fresh on the shelf. They also make a wonderful present, which is why they are featured in our Gifts for Tea Lovers Collection.

  • Restock with a Refill Bag: When you're running low, simply order a refill bag to top up your tin. Our refill bags use minimal packaging and ensure you always have the freshest possible tea on hand.

This practice means less environmental impact and a ritual that feels good every time you open the lid.

What Is Your Shipping Policy?

We strive to get your tea to you as quickly and efficiently as possible so you can start enjoying it. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Processing Time: All orders are hand-packed with care and typically ship from our Salem, Oregon tea kitchen within 2 - 3 business days.
