Tea, Defence (15g)

Ready to take on cold & flu season! A useful tea for when your feeling rundown, headachey, feverish, and congested. And delicious with honey!

Featured Herbs:

Yarrow: This plant is a do-it-all for flu and fever! Yarrow is both an anti-inflammatory as well as being antimicrobial. It reduces pain, is an anti-catarrhal, and relaxes circulation. As a diaphoretic, it opens your pores and induces perspiration. 

How to Use:

For a hot cup: Steep 1-2 tsp of herb in 8fl oz of just-boiled water. Let steep 5-10min. For a more potent cup, steep up to 20 minutes. Sweeten to taste.

For a cold infusion: combine loose-leaf tea and cold water in a pitcher and let the tea infuse the water for 6 to 12 hours in the refrigerator. Strain, sweeten, and enjoy.
