FAQ
How will I feel after drinking cacao?
Most people describe it as grounding and steady - like a calm kind of comfort. Because cacao contains theobromine (a different stimulant than caffeine), some people feel more alert without the same jitters they might get from coffee. Everyone’s body is different, so start with a smaller cup if you’re sensitive.
Will cacao make me "high"?
Cacao isn’t a “get you high” ingredient. What some people feel is a gentle lift - more like being warmed, softened, or a little more open. Cacao naturally contains theobromine, which can feel energizing for some people, but it’s not an intoxicant.
How do I make cacao tea?
Steep 1 sachet of you favorite Azomalli cacao tea in hot water for 5-10 minutes. Steep longer for a richer, darker cup (it stays smooth). Add a splash of milk or a little honey if you want.
Is drinking cacao tea good for you?
Cacao is widely loved as a nourishing plant - it naturally contains antioxidants and minerals like magnesium. That said, what’s “good for you” depends on your body and what you’re adding to it (like sugar or dairy). We keep it simple: cacao can be a beautiful daily ritual that supports your overall sense of wellbeing.
Does Cacao tea contain caffeine?
Let us debunk this common misconception: Azomalli's cacao tea is made from the finely roasted shells of cacao beans and does not contain caffeine. It does contain, however, theobromine.
Do you test cacao shells for heavy metals and contaminants?
Yes. At Azomalli, product safety is non-negotiable. Every batch of our cacao undergoes rigorous testing for lead and other heavy metals as well as for microbiological purity at accredited third-party laboratories. We follow strict food safety protocols and only use cacao and herbs that meets or exceeds all regulatory standards. If a batch does not pass, it is rejected and never used in our products. Your health and safety are our highest priorities.
What is Theobromine?
Found naturally in cacao, theobromine is the feel-good compound that gives cocoa its magic. Unlike caffeine, it provides a smooth and long-lasting boost without the jitters, helping to enhance focus, support heart health, and even promote relaxation. A natural vasodilator, it improves circulation and may contribute to lower blood pressure. Plus, with mild mood-lifting and bronchodilation effects, theobromine makes indulging in cocoa not just delicious but beneficial, too!
Is this sugar and gluten free?
Yes. Each blend is 100% sugar, gluten-free and allergen-free.
Are Azomalli's teas organic?
Yes, your Azomalli tea is organic and certified by Natural Food Certifiers (NFC).
What are Azomalli's tea sachets made of and are they safe?
Azomalli's pyramid sachets are 100% safe and are made from biodegradable food-grade material made from sugar PLA (polylactic acid). Each batch is tested to ensure it is safe to consume.
Unlike other commercially available tea bags made from nylon, polypropylene, and cellulose that release billions of micro and nano-plastics into a single cup of tea, our sachets are made from natural material that not only makes it more eco-friendly but also ensures its absolute safety for consumption.
Are Azomalli's product packaging environmentally friendly?
Yes. Azomalli's pouches are made from post-consumer recycled (PCR) food-grade safe material. This means that the material has been recycled from used products, reducing the amount of waste and thus having a positive impact on the environment. This type of eco-friendly packaging method is an integral part of a circular economy where materials are reused instead of thrown away. It ensures Azomalli meets its sustainability goals by reducing its carbon footprint.
