Rooibos Remedy
Rooibos to the rescue! Super high in antioxidants to fight off disease, plus rich in anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties, this loose leaf has a rounded, smooth flavor and an aroma hit of bourbon vanilla that’s totally intoxicating. Brew it up mid-afternoon for a sweet sip that’s naturally caffeine free.
Sugar & Spice
Bolster your immunity with this tasty trifecta. Turmeric delivers serious antioxidants, ginger soothes inflammation, and cocoa fights free radicals—and loose leaf means more flavor. No wonder it smells like a cookie in a cup. Simply brew, steep, and reap the wellness rewards.
Stress Slasher
Adaptogens—super herbs and botanicals like cordyceps mushroom and astragalus root—not only protect the body from stress, but also support sleep, which keeps the immune system humming. This powdered sip contains seven different adaptogens that can spike everything from your tea to your smoothie.
Pretty in Pink
- Pinky Up Hibiscus Rosehip; $12 (3 oz., loose leaf)
Created in Seattle by a group of women who adore tea, this whole leaf herbal blend combines hibiscus and rosehip, both high in health-boosting vitamin C. Pinkies up for the pretty packaging and English garden scent, too.
Turbo-Charged Turmeric
Turmeric is one of the most powerful anti-inflammatory spices going, but sprinkling the straight-up spice into your sip isn’t the most convenient or tasty way to get its benefits. Problem solved with these single sips: instant, on-the-go blends of turmeric, ginger, vanilla, and cinnamon that work hot or cold.
Super Syrup
- Urban Moonshine Immune Zoom; $18.99
Feeling stuffy and achy? This sweet syrup is fortified with serious plant medicine. Echinacea can increase infection-fighting white blood cells, elderberry can help relieve nasal congestion, ginger can ease inflammation, and organic honey can lubricate breathing passages. Just add a teaspoon to warm water and sip.
