Is it like butter coffee?
Butter tea was the inspiration for butter coffee. We're bringing it back to its roots.
Tea contains polyphenols, flavonoids, EGCG and L-theanine, which have been shown to have powerful health effects. Specifically, studies have suggested that drinking tea may decrease depression, diabetes, liver and heart disease.
Coffee also contains some polyphenols, however it is much more acidic, often causing irritation to the stomach lining.
Caffeine content is another big reason many are making the switch from coffee to tea. Tea has less caffeine and contains other compounds (like theanine) that stimulate health brain activity, minus the jitters and crash from coffee. #lesscaffeinemorebuzz

Still not convinced?
Butter recently made a status jump after clinical studies debunked popular myths linking saturated fats to heart disease. Grass fed butter is especially beneficial, as it contains higher amounts of CLA, vitamin K and omega-3 fatty acids than its grain fed counter part. #fatisback
