HumaniTea - Vegan Tea Lattes

HumaniTea is a UK-based social enterprise specialising in ready-to-drink plant-based iced tea lattes, recognised as the UK's first chilled ready-to-drink vegan tea latte brand. Founded by Tina, a former IT professional turned Chief Tea Officer, the company draws inspiration from Taiwanese bubble tea culture and traditional British tea-drinking heritage to create a distinctive range of oat milk tea latte beverages packaged in recyclable aluminium cans.

The company's core product lineup consists of two flagship flavours: a Matcha Oat Milk Green Tea Latte brewed with organic matcha sourced from Japan, and an Earl Grey Oat Milk Classic Tea Latte brewed with organic, Fairtrade Earl Grey tea leaves sourced from Rwanda. Both variants are cold-brewed using real tea leaves — never from concentrate or extract — and blended with creamy oat milk to deliver a refreshing, dairy-free alternative to conventional soft drinks and coffee-based beverages.

HumaniTea products are formulated to appeal to health-conscious consumers seeking natural energy without the jitters or crash typically associated with coffee caffeine. Each 250ml can contains approximately 66 calories, is lightly sweetened with organic agave nectar, and is free from artificial flavours and emulsifiers. The use of oat milk makes the entire range suitable for vegans and those with lactose intolerance, while also offering a lower environmental footprint compared to dairy alternatives.

The brand positions itself at the intersection of wellness and ethical sourcing, emphasising antioxidant-rich ingredients, low sugar content, and responsibly obtained tea leaves. All products are crafted in the UK and distributed through retail, online direct-to-consumer, and wholesale channels. HumaniTea actively targets consumers looking to reduce sugary soft drink consumption and replace high-calorie coffee drinks with a more balanced, plant-based option.

As a social enterprise, HumaniTea channels its commercial activity toward supporting wellbeing and sustainability initiatives, promoting mindfulness through the concept of regular tea breaks. The brand's ethos, encapsulated in the tagline 'Me Time, Tea Time, Any Time,' reflects a broader mission to make functional, health-forward beverages accessible while contributing positively to society.
