Regular herbal-tea drinkers
An 80-bag listing suits shoppers who want that exact quantity for repeat use. Check the stated bag count rather than assuming a familiar brand or a large-looking carton contains 80 bags.
Who is an 80-bag box for?
Shoppers checking ingredients
A pure peppermint infusion and a lemon-and-ginger blend have different ingredient lists. Read the exact product label if you want to avoid particular botanicals or prefer a single-herb tea.
Customers concerned about substitutions
Bag count, flavour and ingredients can all change with a substitute. In a Which? survey reported in March 2026, 20% of surveyed online grocery shoppers had received a substitution in their most recent order; the figure covers groceries generally, not herbal tea specifically.
What should you check before ordering?
Settle the pack size first, then compare ingredients and review the retailer’s substitution setting before checkout.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Exact pack size | Look for “80 Tea Bags” or “80 Bags” in the listing. Check net weight separately: Twinings lists its 80-bag peppermint box at 160g and its lemon-and-ginger box at 120g. | I want an 80-bag box, not a smaller pack from the same brand. |
| Flavour and ingredients | Compare the full ingredient lists. Twinings Pure Peppermint lists peppermint; its Lemon & Ginger blend includes ginger root, lemongrass, lemon peel and sweet fennel. | Would I prefer plain mint across the box, or a blend with citrus and spice? I also want to spot any botanical ingredient I avoid. |
| Individual suitability | Check caffeine declarations and the exact ingredients. NHS pregnancy guidance addresses herbal-tea intake and liquorice root; Teapigs gives a hypertension-related warning for its liquorice-and-peppermint blend specifically. | If pregnancy or another individual consideration applies to me, I need to check the particular tea rather than assume every herbal blend is interchangeable. |
| Delivery substitutions | Review whether substitutions are allowed. If one is offered, compare its bag count and ingredient label with the item ordered. | I do not want an unreviewed change of blend or pack size. Which? reported in March 2026 that 20% of surveyed online grocery shoppers received a substitution in their most recent order, across grocery categories. |
Mistakes to avoid
-
Assuming every box from a familiar brand contains 80 bags
Herbal-tea ranges include different pack sizes, so a brand name alone does not establish the quantity you will receive.
Confirm “80 Tea Bags” or “80 Bags” in the product details before checkout.
-
Accepting a different blend without checking it
A substitute can change the flavour, bag count or botanicals—for example, plain peppermint is not the same ingredient choice as a liquorice-and-peppermint blend.
Review the delivered item’s label before accepting it. Tesco says that, when substitutions are allowed, an unwanted substitute can be returned to the driver or Click+Collect colleague for a refund.
-
Using “herbal” as a substitute for an ingredient check
Herbal blends differ. NHS pregnancy guidance advises avoiding teas containing liquorice root, while Teapigs gives a separate consumption warning for people with hypertension on its liquorice-and-peppermint blend.
Read the exact ingredients and any product warning; seek appropriate professional advice for individual health or medicine-related questions.
Brand and range references
These brands illustrate different herbal-infusion formats; a brand’s inclusion here does not mean every tea in its range comes in an 80-bag box.
Twinings
Twinings lists both Pure Peppermint and Lemon & Ginger in 80-bag formats on its UK product pages.
- Pure Peppermint is the single-herb mint option; Lemon & Ginger contains several botanicals.
- The two blends have different ingredients and net weights, so check the exact variant.
Tesco
Tesco’s fruit-and-herbal grocery listing includes Tesco Rooibos 80 Bags 200g.
- An 80-bag rooibos choice for shoppers who prefer it to mint or lemon and ginger.
- Check the item and any proposed substitution when placing a grocery order.
Pukka
Pukka offers botanical blends, including Peppermint & Liquorice in a 20-bag format.
- The named blend combines peppermint and liquorice.
- Check pack size and the liquorice content rather than treating it as plain peppermint.
Clipper
Clipper describes its Organic Peppermint Infusion as naturally caffeine-free.
- Peppermint is the only ingredient listed for that infusion.
- Confirm the bag count of the particular Clipper pack before ordering for an 80-bag requirement.
Teapigs
Teapigs lists peppermint tea made with pure peppermint leaves in 15- and 50-temple formats.
- Its peppermint product is a distinct single-herb option.

Common questions
Which herbal infusions come in an 80-bag box?
Twinings lists Pure Peppermint and Lemon & Ginger in 80-bag boxes, while Tesco lists Rooibos 80 Bags 200g. Check the exact variant: another tea from the same brand may have a different bag count.
Should I choose peppermint, lemon and ginger, or rooibos?
Choose by the flavour and ingredients you want across 80 bags. Pure peppermint is a mint infusion, Twinings Lemon & Ginger contains several botanicals including fennel, and rooibos is a different tea ingredient rather than a substitute for either flavour.
How do I prepare the Twinings 80-bag teas?
Twinings’ instructions for its Pure Peppermint and Lemon & Ginger 80-bag products specify one bag in 200ml of freshly boiled water for three minutes, or longer for a stronger drink. Follow the directions on a different product rather than applying this timing to every herbal tea.
What if my grocery order contains a substitute?
Compare the substitute’s bag count, flavour and full ingredients before accepting it. Tesco says it may offer an alternative if substitutions are allowed and that an unwanted substitute can be returned to the driver or Click+Collect colleague for a refund.
Do pregnancy or hypertension considerations affect the choice?
They can make the exact ingredients important. NHS pregnancy guidance advises no more than four cups of herbal tea a day and avoiding teas containing liquorice root. Teapigs advises people with hypertension to limit its liquorice-and-peppermint blend to one cup daily; that product-specific warning should not be applied to every peppermint tea. Check the particular label and seek professional advice for individual circumstances.
