Notes

This really is so easy. I've used the Teavana bags in Jade Mint and Perfectly Peach, but any herbal tea in that flavor combination could work. I also like to add the thieves and sometimes lemon essential oils just for a boost in immunity power. I don't always add the Elderberry powder (liquid could work too) because it shifts the drink to a berry-type flavor and I like the citrus, mint, and peach flavor together. This really is such a good bolt to me feeling better during these tough winter months and it's a nice hot beverage while I work in the afternoons without consuming more caffeine.
