Tierra Mia Hot Tea Menu & Prices
Tierra Mia hot tea is the calm corner of the menu — ten loose-leaf teas brewed by the cup, every one a flat $3.50. Black, green, white and caffeine-free herbal blends, several certified organic, with no espresso machine in sight.
Loose-leaf selection
The quiet, unhurried side of the menu
Most of the Tierra Mia menu is built around coffee, ice and bold flavor. The Tierra Mia hot tea list is the deliberate counterpoint: a curated set of ten loose-leaf teas, steeped hot and served plain, for the moments when you want warmth without a coffee buzz.
The range covers all four classic tea families — bold black teas like Organic Breakfast and Earl Grey, grassy greens such as Organic Green Dragon, a delicate White Orchard, and soothing caffeine-free herbals including Chamomile Citrus and Ginger Twist. A loose-leaf chai rounds it out for anyone who wants the spice without the milk.
Pricing could not be simpler: every loose-leaf tea is a flat $3.50, making this the most affordable category on the entire Tierra Mia menu.
Loose-leaf tea vs. bagged tea
Tierra Mia brews loose-leaf rather than commodity tea bags — and the difference is something you can taste.
Loose-leaf tea
Whole and large-cut leaves have room to unfurl and circulate in hot water, releasing fuller flavor and aroma. You get a rounder, more complex cup with less bitterness — and the leaves can carry a fresher, higher grade.
Standard tea bags
Most bags hold fannings and dust — tiny broken fragments that steep fast but flat, often tasting one-note and astringent. Convenient, but a clear step down from a properly brewed loose-leaf cup.
Caffeine level by tea type
Caffeine on the hot tea menu depends entirely on the leaf. Here is a rough guide from boldest to none.
Highest caffeine
Organic Breakfast, Earl Grey and the loose-leaf chai are black teas — the most caffeinated, a solid coffee alternative for mornings.
Moderate caffeine
Organic Green Dragon, Spring Jasmine, Green Tea Tropical and Marrakesh Mint sit in the middle — a gentle, steady lift.
Light caffeine
White Orchard is the most delicate leaf on the list, with the lowest caffeine of the true teas and a soft, subtly fruity character.
Caffeine-free
Chamomile Citrus and Ginger Twist are herbal infusions with no tea leaf at all — naturally caffeine-free, any time of day.
The organic teas on the menu
Three blends on the Tierra Mia hot tea list carry the organic label — grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
Organic Breakfast
A bold, brisk organic black tea — the classic wake-up cup, malty and full-bodied, ready for milk if you want it.
Organic Green Dragon
A clean, grassy organic green tea with a smooth finish and no harsh edge — the everyday green on the menu.
Organic Spring Jasmine
Green tea scented with jasmine blossom for a soft, floral aroma — delicate, fragrant and lightly sweet.
Herbal or caffeinated — when to choose which
The hot tea menu works at any hour. Match the leaf to the moment.
Reach for black tea
Organic Breakfast or Earl Grey gives the firmest caffeine lift — the natural choice to start the day or replace a coffee.
Reach for green or white
Marrakesh Mint or White Orchard offers a lighter, steadier energy that will not crowd out your evening sleep.
Reach for herbal
Chamomile Citrus and Ginger Twist are caffeine-free — calming, settling and safe to sip late at night.

Steeping notes for a better cup
Loose-leaf tea rewards a little care. General guidance for getting the most from each leaf.
Hot water, longer steep
Black teas take near-boiling water and roughly 3–5 minutes. Over-steeping turns them astringent, so taste as you go.
Cooler water, shorter steep
Greens and whites prefer slightly cooler water and 2–3 minutes — too hot and the leaf scorches into bitterness.
Forgiving and flexible
Chamomile and ginger infusions handle full-boil water and a longer steep with no bitterness — hard to over-brew.
