Elderberry Lavender Lemon Tea
Classic Lemonade With a Twist
Summer is bearing down on us with the hottest month of the year, and we’ve been busy in our kitchen brewing up something delicious and thirst quenching for you.
We’re experimenting with a new herbal tea product, just recently added to our lineup of fabulous Elderberry Tea Blends. Elderberry Lemon Mint is a perfect blend of elderberries, peppermint leaf, lemongrass, spearmint leaf, lemon verbena, and lemon balm.
In addition to its stomach soothing properties, this tea boasts several health benefits worth considering.
• Elderberries are full of antioxidants and vitamins that may help support the immune system. They may also help tame inflammation, lessen stress, and protect your heart. Some experts recommend elderberries to help prevent cold and flu symptoms. *
• Peppermint may help relieve tension headaches, improve energy, and fight bacterial infections. Peppermint may also help alleviate nausea and indigestion. *
• Lemongrass contains antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. According to a study published by the NIH, lemongrass essential oil showed antimicrobial abilities against the bacteria responsible for tooth decay.*
• Spearmint is a minty herb that is high in antioxidants and other plant compounds that may improve digestion, lower blood sugar, and reduce stress. *
• Lemon verbena may help reduce anxiety and has long been used in folk medicine as a relaxant or nerve tonic. *
• Lemon Balm relieves stress and reduces anxiety. It may also help boost cognitive function, and when combined with other herbs, may ease sleep disorders and restlessness. *
So many fantastic reasons to make this your go-to summer drink!
That’s why we started with our Elderberry Lemon Mint to create a lavender lemonade with a delicious minty twist. As usual, it didn’t last long at our house (and it was so good, we had to make it twice!)
