8 Best Weight Loss Teas—For a Discount

Now through Monday, February 27, save up to 25 percent on your favorite slimming brews!

If you like to keep tea time interesting, you likely have a diverse collection of brews. Because each type of tea has its own distinct flavor and health benefits, that's a good thing. But it can definitely drain your wallet. "Nutrient-rich varieties cost way more than a box of Lipton tea bags. In fact, some rare loose-leaf teas can cost thousands, and a small 1.6-ounce tin of culinary grade matcha can easily sell for $40 at your local grocery store," says Kelly Choi, author of The 7-Day Flat-Belly Tea Cleanse.

To help you expand your infusion collection without breaking the bank, we've tracked down a wide variety of teas that are on sale now through Monday, February 27. Get 'em while they're hot (no pun intended) to start sipping your way to a slimmer, healthier you. And If you want to learn more about the better-body benefits of your favorites, don't miss our report, The 22 Best Teas for Weight Loss.
