Best Herbal Teas in KL

Although this café is primarily known for its imported specialty coffee, their tea selection shouldn’t be overlooked either. A delightful range of fruit and floral tea such as lavender, jasmine, rose and chrysanthemum blend can be found here. Do try their best-selling Peach Fruit Tea. Served in a transparent pot, the tea is blessed with a nice blend of sweetness and soothing aroma that you can enjoy on its own or pair with a cake of your choice.

From rice to hot pot, soup, vegetable and even desserts, every serving at Purple Cane is infused with their signature tea blend. The restaurant also doesn’t disappoint when comes to various Chinese tea selection. Here, you can find classic favourites such as green tea, oolong tea and jasmine tea. The tea is brewed fresh upon order, and well-infused using twin-pots technique to retain its natural aroma. On top of that, ice-cold herbal refreshments such as Honey Black Tea and Lemon Celery Green Tea are available as well.

This popular herbal shop needs no introduction. Koong Woh Tong has numerous branches in various shopping malls mushrooming all over the Klang Valley area alone. The shop’s two signature herbal drinks – the “Five Flower Tea” and “Wong Lo Kat” – are both cooling and refreshing. The drink is served either in a bowl or a plastic cup.

If you are looking for more than your typical Chinese herbal tea, The Tea Republic might interest you with their extensive tea selection from around the world. Whichever type of tea you're searching for, you name it, chances are high they would have it. There’s Sri Lanka’s “Ceylon Breakfast”, South Africa’s “Ruby Red” (a type of rooibos tea) and Japan’s “Kirara Rice Tea”, to name a few. Even if you are a traditionalist, the café still offers familiar tea menu such as ginger tea, green tea and black tea. For a complete tea experience, pair your cuppa with delicious light bites including croissant and fruit toast.

Who could have thought there’s an exquisite tea house nestled within the suburban area of Taman Melawati? Here, you can expect a fine tea selection such as Darjeeling Earl Grey, Assam Blend and Roasted Oolong Tea. Of course, no tea break would be complete without a scrumptious side serving of dessert. Your best bet? Consider serving your favourite tea with a pair of homemade scones. On top of that, Miss Ellie Tea House also serves main-course items in their menu such as pasta and poultry dishes.

Situated within the high-density area of Taman Segar in Cheras, Life Café mesmerises with its wonderfully rustic-yet-traditional wood-themed interior. Beyond its old-fashioned Chinese tea house setting, the café is also blessed with a satisfying range of aromatic herbal tea selection. For instance, the Ginseng Chrysanthemum Tea is a great wake-me-up drink blessed with robust ginseng flavour and a calming aroma of chrysanthemum blend. Alternatively, there’s the classic leaf tea such as Tie Guan Yin and Pu’er, which are served either singly, or in a tea art set.

True to its cheeky name of the café, Munching Mob deserves a thumb-up for its tea presentation. Here, the tea cup is adorned with cute little animal made out of ceramic. In fact, the cup is so adorable that it definitely puts a smile in your face each time you take a sip. Not only does the freshly-brewed tea taste delicate, but it also pairs well with sweet desserts such as their signature “Loco Local” pancake. But if you are looking for something cold and refreshing, do try their very own all-natural “Herbal Quencher”, which comes in two flavours: Eight Treasure and Lemon Nutmeg.
