Pick me if: you are seeking a daily immune sipper that also tastes amazing OR if you just want a delicious seasonally spiced brew that is actually good for you.
Flavor profile: Fruit, pie, spiced, comfort
Organic Ingredients: Pau de Arco bark, Hibiscus calyx, Elder berries, Star Anise, Maple syrup granules, Fenugreek, Ceylon Cinnamon, Cardamom, Allspice, Nutmeg. Caffeine free
Understanding the Ingredients: I wanted to make the absolute most delicious Elderberry tonic tea that I could- and here it is. I was inspired by cherry cobbler and it shows in every sip. The Pau de Arco brings the pie crust flavor while offering antimicrobial and immune supportive benefits. Elderberry of course offers its antiviral and immune supportive gifts. Star Anise brings shikimic acid to play which is noted to help battle unwanted viral replication while Hibiscus shines a tart Vitamin C rich berry flavor into the brew. Seasonal spices all offer their own warming benefits and flavor enhancements creating an all around delightful immunity tonic experience.
Can be drank regularly as other Elderberry supplements for enhanced immune support safe for longer use.
Not your ordinary teabag: Our hand-made teabags are large since they are a full portion to provide you with the intended benefit and desired support. Each one may be re-steeped several times throughout the day. The brewed tea may also be saved in the fridge over night and enjoyed chilled the following day. They are each handcrafted in perfect measurement within a microplastic free teabag and hand stapled with a stainless steel staple. This is slow craft herbalism with care.
{10 pack is 2.5oz and 3 pack is .75oz }
Loose leaf or bagged are both created in very small batches in our woodland teahouse from thoughtfully sourced ingredients and professionally formulated by Leah, owner and clinical herbalist.
HOW TO BREW:
Bagged: Use 1 tea bag per 16 oz of 200 ºF water. Begin drinking when temperature is comfortable but never remove tea bag. Add more hot water once the cup is finished for a second or third infusion for full benefit.
Loose Leaf: Use 1.5 Tb per 16 oz of 200 ºF water and steep a minimum of 15 minutes. Ideally pouring off bits of the tea as the rest continues to steep. I really enjoy placing loose leaf in a French press, pouring off the tea to drink, and recovering with more water for a full day infusion of full benefit.
The longer these herbs steep the better and more potent the herbal infusion will be. Add sweetness if you prefer.
Earth first packaging: Our packaging is intentionally minimal and environmentally conscious. The kraft bags holding our teas are 100% recycled and backyard compostable. Our teabags are compostable, as well as the herbs inside, once the staple is removed. They love to return to the earth. We are constantly seeking ways we can do better and lessen our impact.
