Ever since the shift in weather and recent time change, I’ve felt sluggish and less energized. This tea is the perfect pick-me-up. I’ve been religiously drinking it every day for the past two weeks to keep sickness at bay and a pep in my step!
This drink is as powerful as it is tasty! Ginger and turmeric are both flavorful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory superstars that will help soothe your soul and insides. The cinnamon and cayenne pepper will tantalize your tastebuds and awaken your senses on dull and drab days. The lemon and honey will add some sweetness to your cup and your life. What’s not to love? It’s the perfect blend of spicy, tangy, and sweet.
