Cold & Flu Hot Pink Lemonade Tea


Strangely enough, both of us sisters have the flu going around in our houses this week. In lieu of our illnesses, I share with you an amazing cold and flu busting tea. The immune boosting elderberry provides the hot pink color, brewed in hot water, with flu fighting yarrow, lemon juice and grated ginger to give it a nice zing. Sweeten it with raw honey and you've got a vitamin C packed, immune boosting, anti-viral tea that not only tastes delightful but will get you feeling better in no time.
 


Cold & Flu Hot Pink Lemonade Tea
1 T dried elderberries
1T dried yarrow
1 T grated fresh ginger
juice from one lemon


Put all ingredients into a 3 c mason jar. Fill with boiling water and cover. Let steep for 20 minutes. Strain the tea before serving. Sweeten with raw honey. Makes 3 servings. Rest and get better soon!
