Herbal Breakdown:
Echinacea (Echinacea purpurea) — Mildly earthy, slightly bitter; supports immune defenses. Especially valued at the onset of illness or during periods of immune vulnerability.
Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis) — Minty and slightly camphor-like, hyssop has a long history as a respiratory herb. It clears the lungs, soothes congestion, and brings clarity to a body that's been holding a lot.
Tulsi/Holy Basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum) — Peppery, sweet, lightly floral; balancing, stress supportive. Adaptogenic and balancing, Tulsi helps the body metabolize the chronic stress load that grief creates. It's one of the herbs that quietly does double duty here, supporting both immunity and the frayed nervous system underneath it.
Elderflower (Sambucus) — Light, floral, slightly sweet; cooling, supports immune function. Gentle but reliable immune ally, particularly for upper respiratory support. A favorite herb for the early stages of illness, or for prevention when the body is run down
Ginger Root (Zingiber officinale) — Warming and stimulating. Ginger moves circulation, supports digestion (which grief often disrupts), and adds immune-supportive warmth that anchors the whole blend.
Flavor Profile: Warming and gently spicy from ginger and hyssop, balanced by tulsi’s peppery sweetness. Elderflower lends a soft floral note, while echinacea adds a mild, earthy undertone. Comforting, cozy, and restoring. A cup of wellness tea that actually tastes good and doesn’t leave you holding your nose trying to get the medicine down. You’ll feel comforted by the aromas and feel accomplished knowing you’re aiding your body in times of need.
Brewing Instructions: Steep 2 tsp per 8oz cup of water at 190°F, and drink when the temperature is comfortable, which is typically in 5-10 minutes. It can be steeped multiple times.
