Why Choose Spices.pk Lemongrass Tea (لیمن گراس)?

What is Lemongrass Tea (لیمن گراس / Cymbopogon citratus)?

Lemongrass Tea is an aromatic herbal infusion made from the leaves of the Cymbopogon citratus plant, a tropical grass native to South Asia and Maritime Southeast Asia. Known as "لیمن گراس" in Urdu, this fragrant herb has a distinct fresh citrus scent and a mild, refreshing lemon flavour with subtle earthy undertones. Unlike green tea or black tea, lemongrass tea is naturally caffeine‑free, making it an excellent choice for any time of day – from morning hydration to evening relaxation.

Nutritional profile per cup (250ml infusion): virtually zero calories, 0g fat, 0g sugar, 0g protein. However, lemongrass is rich in bioactive compounds: citral (65‑85% of essential oil), geraniol, limonene, citronellal, and flavonoids (luteolin, quercetin, kaempferol). These compounds provide powerful antioxidant, anti‑inflammatory, antimicrobial, and sedative properties. A cup of lemongrass tea also provides small amounts of vitamins A and C, plus minerals like potassium, magnesium, and zinc.

Whether you are looking for a natural remedy for indigestion, a gentle detox drink, a stress‑relieving bedtime tea, or simply a delicious caffeine‑free alternative to regular chai, our organic lemongrass tea delivers authentic flavour and therapeutic benefits that have been trusted across Asia for thousands of years.

A Fragrant Journey: The 5,000‑Year History of Lemongrass

The story of lemongrass spans millennia and continents. While its exact origins are difficult to pinpoint, the plant is most likely native to Malaysia and Southern India. The ancient Ayurvedic texts of India (Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, c. 3000‑1500 BCE) have long documented its use for fevers (earning it the nickname "fever grass"), digestive disorders, and nervous conditions. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), lemongrass is considered a warming herb that expels cold, relieves pain, and harmonises the stomach.

In India, it has been cultivated for its aromatic oil since 1888, and the name Cymbopogon derives from Greek words meaning "boat" (kymbe) and "beard" (pogon), referring to the shape of its flower spikelets. After World War I, lemongrass was introduced to Madagascar, South America, and Central America, and it quickly naturalised throughout tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. In traditional medicine across Asia, Africa, and the Americas, lemongrass has been used to treat fevers, digestive disorders, high blood pressure, insomnia, and anxiety. Today, India is the world's largest producer of lemongrass (exporting 80% of total production), followed by China, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Brazil. It remains one of the most widely consumed herbal teas globally, cherished for its delicate flavour and therapeutic qualities.
