FAQ
Everything you ask about menthol-free singer throat tea: the four ThroatVoices blends, the ingredients, the pricing, and how to pre-order before the Q4 2026 launch.
Menthol and eucalyptus both numb the throat — which means you stop feeling what your vocal cords are doing. Singers and speakers rely on that sensation to read fatigue, swelling, and strain in real time, so a soothing throat product that masks feedback can do more harm than the dryness it covers up. Every ThroatVoices blend — Clearing Lift, Coat & Recover, Steady Focus, and Wind Down — is menthol- and eucalyptus-free. We use straightforward botanicals like slippery elm, marshmallow root, and ginger that soothe without suppressing sensation, so your voice never stops telling you the truth. The full reasoning — and every botanical in the blend — is on the Vocal Guard science page.
Four blends, each tuned to a moment in a performer's day: Clearing Lift (pre-show mucolytic — opens the airway), Coat & Recover (post-show demulcent — soothes tired cords), Steady Focus (daily practice — clean caffeine lift without jitters or crash), and Wind Down (evening caffeine-free recovery). All menthol- and eucalyptus-free, no flavoring or filler, just functional botanicals. For the per-ingredient rationale behind each blend, see the /science page.
Clearing Lift is the pre-show mucolytic blend — ginger root, lemon peel, slippery elm bark, and licorice root. Ginger and lemon thin mucus, slippery elm reduces throat inflammation, and licorice supports mucosal comfort. Drink it warm before going on stage or into a recording session to open the airway and reduce the inflammation that builds before demanding vocal work. $28 per 40g pouch.
Coat & Recover is the post-show demulcent — marshmallow root, licorice root, chamomile, and slippery elm bark. Together they form a gentle, soothing coating over tired vocal cords, working deep where steam can't reach. Drink it warm after a long set, rehearsal, or intensive recording session. $28 per 40g pouch.
Steady Focus is the daily-practice lift — yaupon leaf, L-theanine (from yaupon), and green tea. Yaupon is America's native caffeine source and delivers a gentler, flatter curve than coffee, with L-theanine from the yaupon itself smoothing the edge. The result is steady, focused energy for a full rehearsal session without the peak-and-crash or the dehydration coffee brings. $26 per 40g pouch.
Wind Down is the evening recovery blend — chamomile, passionflower, valerian root, and lemon balm. It is caffeine-free and crafted to quiet the nervous system and support the deep rest your voice needs after a demanding performance. Drink it warm in the evening on performance nights so tomorrow's rehearsal doesn't start at a deficit. $26 per 40g pouch.
A simple rhythm: Clearing Lift before going on stage or into a recording session. Coat & Recover immediately after, while the cords are still warm. Steady Focus at the start of a long rehearsal or morning practice. Wind Down in the evening on performance nights to support overnight recovery.
Every blend comes in a 40g pouch. Clearing Lift and Coat & Recover are $28 each; Steady Focus and Wind Down are $26 each. Shipping is free on orders of four pouches or more.
