Free Herbal Tea Formulation: How Our 20+ Year R&D Team Builds Your Blend

A herbal tea can look beautiful on the shelf and still fail in the cup. The blend is where most new brands win or lose, and it is the part many manufacturers charge extra for. At Anantah Foods, formulation is complimentary when you manufacture with us.

OUR PROCESS

How It Works

Our process takes your idea from the first discussion through sample testing and final approval. You can share your requirements, taste the proposed blend, provide feedback and approve the formulation before production begins.

• 1. Share your idea: the product, target market, flavour direction and expected quantity.
• 2. We propose a formulation, choosing herbs, flowers and spices for taste, aroma, colour and stability.
• 3. Samples reach you in 5 to 7 working days. A sample kit costs ₹299 including delivery in India.
• 4. You taste, test and send feedback. We adjust until you are happy.
• 5. Once formula, packaging and artwork are approved, production takes about 3 to 4 weeks.

BLEND DEVELOPMENT

Taste and Function, Together

Many herbal teas either taste good or contain useful botanicals, and rarely both. Balancing a bitter herb with mint, cinnamon or fruit takes practice. Experience helps decide ratios, cut sizes and blending order so every batch tastes the same as the sample you approved.

• - Balance bitter herbs with ingredients such as mint, cinnamon or fruit.
• - Select suitable ingredient ratios.
• - Consider herb cut sizes and blending order.
• - Aim for consistent flavour between the approved sample and production batches.

CONFIDENTIALITY

Your Formula Stays Yours

We sign an NDA before you share your formulation. If you already have a recipe, we procure the ingredients, blend and pack it exactly as given.

• - An NDA is signed before you share your formulation.
• - You can bring your own existing recipe.
• - Ingredients are procured according to the recipe.
• - Blending and packing follow your provided formulation.
