Our Organic Cold Season tea is a soothing organic herbal tea
that is specially formulated for use during the cold-weather season. This warming
formula includes Organic Ginger, Organic Cardamom, Organic Clove, and
Indonesian Organic Cinnamon, all of which are regarded by practitioners
of Ayurvedic medicine as "heating" herbs, commonly used to support
nasal and bronchial function. The blend is complemented with Organic
Peppermint (Mentha x piperita), one of the world's most widely used
herbs, and one that is known for its menthol vapors. We have also included Organic
Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) and Organic Basil
(Ocimum basilicum) to help promote free breathing, as well as Organic
Lemon Grass, one of the best herbs for promoting healthy sinus function.
Our blend is augmented with Organic Licorice, a widely used
herb in traditional Chinese medicine, well-known for coating and soothing membranes
and supporting adrenal function. The German Commission E (1998)
reports that Peppermint, Licorice and Eucalyptus are approved for use to soothe
the membranes of the respiratory tract. When the cold north wind rattles the
panes, be ready with Organic Cold Season tea.

For best tea infusion, pour 8 oz boiling water over one Organic Cold Season
tea bag and steep for 5 to 10 minutes. For a stronger effect, use 2 tea bags.
Gently squeeze each tea bag to fully release the active ingredients. Drink 2–3
cups per day during the cold weather season to support nasal and respiratory
function. When your respiratory system seems a bit down, drink 3 cups per day.
For maximum support, drink a cup every 1 to 4 hours.
Not recommended for infants or toddlers. Not to be used during pregnancy or while nursing.
