Emailing is not the way to go here. Your post is a bit confusing because you say that this for a friend, but it then shifts to the first person. So, whether it is for you or for a friend, call CBP and ask about the specific products and provide the specific destinations.

The OP's location, as stated below the username, is in the UK. The product's country of origin, according to the linked website, is the United Kingdom.

It would appear to me that an American friend asked Cassie55 to bring that item for her/him.

My assumption is that most CBP officers will treat this product like herbal teas. I don't expect there to be a problem, but make sure to declare it.
