Oat straw, also known as Avena sativa, is a gentle herbal infusion valued for its unique ability to be both calming and subtly energising. Unlike many herbs that promote relaxation with a drowsy effect, oat straw is often chosen to support focus and balance during periods of stress or mental fatigue, making it well suited to daytime use.
Traditionally used as a nervous system supporter, oat straw is also appreciated for its naturally occurring nutrients and antioxidants. It is commonly included in herbal routines aimed at supporting overall wellbeing, including inflammation response and long-term bone health. The flavour is very mild, softly herbal and clean, making it easy to drink regularly.
The aroma is subtle and grassy, and the infusion works equally well served warm or chilled. Its light profile makes it ideal as a refreshing cold drink in warmer weather, and it can be enjoyed on its own or with added fruit juice for a gentle, refreshing blend.
To prepare, add one teaspoon per cup with hot water at around 90 to 95 degrees and steep for two to three minutes, adjusting to taste.
Store in a cool, dry place away from light, ideally below 18 degrees. Orders are packed and dispatched promptly from Sydney, with quality carefully maintained throughout handling and storage.
