Yaupon’s Sustainable Edge for Summer Sipping

Yaupon’s Sustainable Edge for Summer Sipping

What makes a truly sustainable tea—especially in the middle of a Texas summer? Meet yaupon—America’s only native caffeinated tea.  

At CatSpring Yaupon, sustainability isn't a feature. It’s a foundation. From restorative wild-harvesting to Regenerative Organic Certification, everything we do honors the land—and the traditions—that came before us.

Why Yaupon Thrives Where Others Wilt

In the heart of Texas, yaupon grows like it always has: unbothered by drought, free from pesticides, and deeply rooted in sandy-loam soil. Unlike traditional tea crops, which often require high water input and chemical treatment, yaupon is self-sufficient. It doesn’t ask much of the earth—and gives so much in return.

No irrigation. No artificial inputs. No compromise. This isn’t just a better-for-you tea—it’s better for the planet.

Tea with a Conservation Heart

As World Nature Conservation Day (July 28) approaches, we’re reminded that meaningful change starts small—often with something as simple as what’s in your glass. Choosing yaupon supports:

  • Soil regeneration

  • Biodiversity restoration

  • Zero-mile native sourcing

  • Water conservation

And because CatSpring Yaupon is wild-harvested—never force-grown—every sip helps protect native ecosystems, not exploit them.

In Every Sip, a Promise

When you drink CatSpring Yaupon, you’re choosing more than hydration and a tasty tea. You’re supporting land stewardship, honoring Indigenous heritage, and embracing a future where what grows wild can still flourish—even under the summer sun.

Here’s to roots that run deep. And to sipping with purpose.
