5. Numi’s Jasmine Green Tea. Did you know that your morning brew may be putting some stress on good ol’ Mother Nature? ‘Tis true! And it’s why we’re loving Numi’s Jasmine Green Tea, as the company not only uses non-GMO materials and eco-friendly packaging, but also offsets carbon emissions by cutting down on need for transportation between the jasmine flower growing and tea producing areas of their Jasmine Green Tea in China. (Initially, the freshly picked tea had to make a long journey to the primary jasmine scenting area, but to decrease waste and emissions, Numi planted jasmine flowers near the tea manufacturer, which greatly lessened the need for transportation.) Annually, Numi’s practices save 5,202 trees, reduce water usage by 2,332,740 gallons and cut down on net green house emissions by 470,475. Dude—now that’s some powerfully healthy tea!
