Description

Family-sized tea bags are small filters made of paper or biodegradable material that contain a specific amount of crushed or powdered tea leaves, designed to prepare infusions in a practical and quick way. These bags allow the flavor and benefits of tea to be extracted simply by steeping them in hot water.

The use of tea bags became popular in the United States in the early 20th century, although tea has a millennia-old origin in China and has spread throughout the world. Family-sized bags usually come in presentations that allow for the preparation of several cups or a large pitcher, making them ideal for gatherings or for those who consume tea frequently.

From a nutritional point of view, tea is known for its antioxidant and diuretic properties, as well as its ability to improve concentration due to its caffeine (or theine) content. Furthermore, depending on the type of tea (black, green, white, herbal), it can provide various benefits such as boosting metabolism, reducing stress, or improving digestion.

In different Spanish-speaking countries, these bags are also known as "tea filters", "little tea bags", or simply "tea bags". They are a basic ingredient in recipes that require infusions, such as desserts, hot or cold beverages, and some culinary preparations that take advantage of the aroma and flavor of tea.
