Anti-Inflammatory Healing Tea

This tea is made of 3 very powerful herbs Hibiscus, Lemon balm and Nettle Leaf. I love mixing teas into one, it's very healing and also instead of drinking 3 cups I can get the same benefits just in one cup.

Here are some of the benefits these herbs contain.

-Hibiscus flower contains a lot of antioxidants and polyphenols which work to protect the body against diseases and lower inflammation and it's excellent for boosting the immune system and fighting off infections.

-Lemon Balm on the other hand which is known as Melissa is an essential herb for calming the nerves, in particular, those involved with digestion.

-Nettle Leaf is a strong immune booster and also contains a potent anti-inflammatory agent. It is rich in chlorophyll and minerals such as iron, zinc, copper and magnesium.

2. After 5 minutes strain the tea into a glass. Add honey and lemon once the tea it's cooled down.

Tip:

• You can definitely use tea bags if you can't fine loose tea.
• Use raw honey in teas once it's cooled down so we don't loose the good source of antioxidants that the honey has to offer.
• You can also infuse water with these herbs without boiling. Just add these herbs to 1 littler (4cups) jar of water room temperature and let it sit on the counter over night. Next day strain it and enjoy through out the day.
