A new consumer survey by single origin tea brand, JING Tea, has revealed that 61 billion teabags are used in the UK annually, enough to cover 31,000 football pitches. The lockdowns since last March have led to an increase in tea drinking in the UK, but Brits are making more considered decisions about their teas, with people choosing to drink more loose-leaf tea, which benefits both tea drinkers and the environment.

Now more than ever we need to create positive green habits, which is why we launched our #LooseLeafChallenge in January 2021 – encouraging you to switch your tea bags for loose tea every day.

Why should you try it? It's a simple switch that's better for you and the planet. You'll generate less waste, discover new flavours and origins and you'll save money. You're paying for the tea, not the packaging after all.
