Hi, I'm Mia & I’m the heart behind Makai Tea 🌿

Makai Tea Company blends small‑batch loose leaf teas rooted in coastal inspiration and crafted for both flavor and wellness. From herbal infusions for calm, digestion, and hormone support to delightful caffeinated blends for energy and refreshment, every tea is designed to be approachable and nourishing.

I’ve been a tea drinker for decades — long before Makai Tea ever existed. Tea has always been my comfort, my ritual, and my go-to way to feel grounded. But the idea for Makai Tea was born out of frustration… and a little hope.

I was tired of being sick on vacation.

Every trip, I’d pack allergy meds, nasal sprays, and all the usual “just in case” remedies — and still end up feeling run down. So I did what I knew best: I created my own tea blend. One designed to gently support my body while traveling, instead of masking symptoms.

And it worked.

The blend that became the spark behind Makai Tea. I named it Travel Pass.

Tea as support, not a quick fix

I’m not a medical professional — and I don’t claim tea can cure anything. What I am is deeply knowledgeable about herbs and how they have been used for hundreds of years to support the body in gentle, intentional ways.

My goal is simple:
To help you explore tea as a supportive companion on your journey — whether that’s wellness, balance, comfort, or simply better flavor.

For me, tea replaced things I had always relied on without question. And I want to inspire others to think outside of what they’re used to, to try something nourishing and time-tested that may support what they’re experiencing.

More than “grassy” tea

I love educating people — especially those who think tea is bland, boring, or something you choke down for health reasons.

Tea doesn’t have to be grassy.
Tea doesn’t have to be intimidating.
And tea doesn’t have to be less exciting than coffee.

It can be flavorful. Cozy. Intentional.
It can meet you where you are — whether you’re here for wellness support, a better caffeine option, or simply a more interesting palate experience.

Inspired by the coast 🌊

I live in a coastal town and have always been drawn to coastal living — the slower pace, the fresh air, the sense of ease.

Many of my blends are named with coastal vibes in mind — inspired by travel, movement, water, and the feeling of being somewhere you can finally exhale. I believe wellness doesn’t have to feel serious or clinical, and naming my teas is one way I keep the experience light, inviting, and enjoyable.

Tea should feel like something you want to reach for — not something you feel forced to drink.

Who I make tea for

I make tea for anyone and everyone:

  • The wellness-curious
  • The flavor lovers
  • The travelers
  • The tired, the busy, the sensitive
  • And people who just want something enjoyable in their cup

If you want education without judgment, support without pressure, and tea that feels approachable, you’re exactly where you belong.

A season of growth — in every way

As I grow Makai Tea, I’m also navigating pregnancy and preparing to become a mom. This season has deepened my appreciation for slowing down, listening to the body, and choosing nourishment — not perfection.

That intention flows into every blend I create.

My belief

Whether you’re here to explore wellness, discover new flavors, or start a tea ritual of your own — I invite you to find the blend that fits your journey.

Welcome to Makai Tea 🤍
I’m so glad you’re here.
