You actually can make your own blend of herbal teas to see if they have an effect on erections. To make a pot of this tea, you’ll need four or five teabags of ordinary black tea, and two to four tablespoons of ground ginger like you get at the grocery. Brew the teabags and ginger in hot water for a few minutes just as you would ordinary hot tea. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and sweeten with honey. The reasoning behind this DIY tea cocktail is:
• Ginger has vasodilation properties
• Black tea is a cortisol blocker and can help keep blood pressure under control
• Lemon, with its vitamin C and bioflavins, is good for artery health
• The boron in honey is good for testosterone production
And even if you don’t notice much of an effect on erections, it makes a nice tasting hot drink, so you can enjoy it anyway.
Are proprietary erection tea blends safe?
There’s no shortage of online stores selling their own blends of “erection tea.” Whatever these products claim to do, you need to know exactly what’s in these blends. In most cases, you’re better off brewing your own herbal teas with herbs you know about. Not only will you have a better idea of what you’re putting into your body, you’ll save money.
Many of these proprietary teas designed for better erections are outrageously expensive, particularly if they ship from overseas. Know the herbs, know the supplier of them, and brew your own herbal tea. If it helps with erections, that’s great, and if not, herbal teas (with some exceptions, like Yohimbe, which can be risky) are generally healthy to drink anyway.
