Cold Busting Wellness Tea
With a preschooler at home it seems like someone in my house is ALWAYS sick. Hermione is exposed to a million germs a day between school and all of her activities and no amount of hand washing can spare us completely. As a busy mom I have no time for sick days that render me useless to my girl! When the sniffles strike ( again and again and again) I have a secret weapon. This Cold Busting Wellness Tea is super intense but if you drink the whole pot I swear you will wake up the next morning feeling like a new person! Loaded with Vitamin C from all the citrus and anti-inflammatories from the ginger, turmeric and cayenne its packs a real punch!
