There’s something different about the islands. The pace is calmer. The air feels lighter. And when it comes to how we care for ourselves, island wisdom has always leaned into nature’s gifts — not against them. At greenteaHAWAII, that spirit flows through every box we pack, every flavor we blend, and every connection we make with people looking for a better, more balanced source of energy.
This July, we’re celebrating 15 years of greenteaHAWAII — and the incredible community that’s grown with us. From our humble beginnings in the islands to becoming a trusted name in functional beverages, it’s been a journey rooted in passion, purpose, and a whole lot of green tea.
Meet the Man Behind the Mission
Behind greenteaHAWAII is a man named Chris Boling, whose commitment to health started long before he became a business owner. A former U.S. Air Force medic, Chris went on to build a career in occupational therapy, helping patients reclaim their strength, movement, and independence. But Chris didn’t stop there — his active lifestyle and passion for wellness led him to green tea.
He began selling greenteaHAWAII before becoming its owner in 2012, driven by a belief that better energy shouldn’t come at the cost of your health. Now, more than a decade later, Chris is proud to lead a Hawaii-based brand that reflects the island values of integrity, wellness, and gratitude — and he's honored to call Oʻahu home for over 20 years.
The Original Functional Beverage
greenteaHAWAII was “functional” before it became trendy. Long before major beverage companies jumped on the wellness bandwagon, we were already formulating our products with purpose. Our blend starts with green tea extract rich in EGCG, a powerful antioxidant known for its metabolism-boosting and thermogenic properties. But that’s just the beginning.
We elevate each serving with L-theanine, a naturally occurring compound in green tea known for its calming nootropic benefits. It helps support alpha brain wave activity — which translates to sharper focus, calm clarity, and smoother energy — without the crash or jitters that traditional energy drinks are infamous for.
To make our formula even more meaningful, we include Polynesian noni fruit extract, a revered natural remedy in Hawaiian and other South Pacific cultures. Known for its antioxidant content and immune-supportive properties, noni adds an unmistakable island touch that sets us apart.
All-Natural Ingredients, Always
Our ingredient list reads like a wellness enthusiast’s dream — natural, clean, and simple. You won’t find synthetic dyes like Red 40 or Blue 1 here. Our product colors come from nature, not a lab. Our flavors are inspired by the islands — like Pineapple Strawberry, Raspberry Lemonade, Coconut Lime, and Passionfruit Orange Guava — designed to delight your taste buds without overloading your body.
Every greenteaHAWAII packet is low in sugar or completely sugar-free, sweetened only with carefully sourced natural stevia extract — no sugar alcohols, no artificial additives. While stevia sometimes gets a bad reputation, our customers often say they’re surprised at how well they enjoy our version. It’s gentle, smooth, and formulated with balance in mind.
Three of our flavors are completely sugar-free, making them a great option for those watching their blood sugar or simply aiming to cut down on sweetness.
15 Years of 5-Star Reviews
We’re a small brand — proudly so. That means we don’t have million-dollar research budgets to fund clinical trials (yet!), but what we do have is a 15-year legacy of glowing feedback from our customers. greenteaHAWAII has consistently earned 5-star reviews across third-party sites, with people sharing how our beverage has contributed to their daily wellness.
Of course, as a responsible brand, we don’t make medical claims — but we do listen, and we do believe in the power of what we’re offering. The truth is, wellness looks different for everyone — and we’re proud to be part of so many people’s unique journeys toward better health.
Our Best Deal of the Year is Here
To mark our 15th year in business, we’re offering $15 OFF each 60-serving box — our best deal of the year — plus free domestic shipping on every order. That's new, and we're thrilled to offer it. There’s no better time to stock up on your favorite flavors or finally give greenteaHAWAII a try.

From the Islands, With Gratitude
greenteaHAWAII was born in the islands, and our headquarters still call Hawaii home. While Chris isn’t Native Hawaiian, he deeply honors the people, culture, and land that have shaped the values of this brand. We’re endlessly grateful for the opportunity to share a piece of the islands with people across the mainland and beyond.
To our loyal customers — thank you for being part of this journey. To our new friends — welcome to the ‘ohana.
Here’s to 15 years of clean energy, natural wellness, and island-inspired vitality.
