Spearmint Green Tea

Spearmint Green Tea is one of the very few teas in the world that has been put through randomised controlled trials — real clinical studies, not wellness marketing. The results are specific: two cups of spearmint tea per day for 30 days produced a statistically significant reduction in free testosterone levels in women with PCOS, a corresponding reduction in hormonal acne lesions, and measurable improvement in androgen-related hair thinning. No other common tea has this level of direct hormonal evidence. Lluvia Tea pairs spearmint with whole-leaf green tea to add EGCG's separate anti-inflammatory and metabolism benefits — making this the most scientifically grounded wellness tea in the collection.

Here is what each ingredient does, and why their combination is more effective than either alone:

• Spearmint — the only mint with documented hormonal effects: Spearmint and peppermint are not the same. Peppermint has cooling and digestive effects. Spearmint has anti-androgenic effects — meaning it specifically reduces the activity of free testosterone and DHT (dihydrotestosterone) in the body. This is the mechanism behind its clinical evidence for hormonal acne: high androgens trigger excess sebum production, which clogs pores and causes cystic breakouts. By moderating androgen levels, spearmint reduces this sebum trigger at the source — not topically, not temporarily, but systemically over weeks. The same mechanism explains its evidence for female pattern hair loss: DHT is the primary hormone responsible for hair follicle miniaturisation. Reducing it slows the process measurably. Spearmint's natural menthol (in lower concentrations than peppermint) also relaxes smooth muscle in the gut — reducing IBS cramping, bloating, and discomfort without pharmaceutical side effects.
• Green Tea — why it amplifies everything spearmint does: Green tea's EGCG independently reduces inflammation — the secondary driver of hormonal acne after androgen activity. By reducing systemic inflammation, EGCG calms redness, prevents new breakouts, and supports faster healing of existing ones. L-theanine adds calm focus — making this the only hormonal wellness tea that also works as a productivity drink. The combination of spearmint's androgen modulation and green tea's inflammation reduction attacks hormonal skin issues from two separate biological mechanisms simultaneously.

What makes this exclusive: Lluvia Tea sources Assam-grown spearmint leaves — not the dried herb imports that populate most spearmint teas, which have often lost their active menthol content by the time they are packaged. Fresh-source spearmint retains the rosmarinic acid and flavone levels that the clinical studies measured. Small-batch blending and immediate sealing ensures those compounds are still present when you brew.

Key benefits: Hormonal acne reduction · Female pattern hair loss · IBS and bloating relief · Anti-inflammatory · Oral health · Clean energy and focus

How to brew: Steep 2.5g in 250ml water at 85°C for 3 minutes. Do not boil — it makes spearmint harsh. Drink 2 cups daily, consistently, for hormonal benefits. Excellent cold as an iced tea. No milk needed.
