What's YOUR favorite tea when the weather gets cold?

We may be biased, but we love our Winter Defense Tea. Not only is it delicious (it really is!), but it's also a great "get well" tea for when you're feeling under the weather. It covers the bases nicely: immune support and antiviral; easing the sore throat and relieving the cough. This certified organic tea can be used any time - when you're feeling compromised, or when you simply want a delicious tea to enjoy by the fire!

Ingredients Organic Echinacea (Echinacea angustifolia) Root Organic Elderberries (Sambucus nigra) Organic Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) Root Organic Marshmallow (Althea officinalis) Root Organic Wild Cherry (Prunus serotina) Bark
