Spotlight on Certified Organic Winter Defense Tea

The best defense is a good offense! Make sure you have Winter Defense Tea on hand before illness strikes. Emily’s formidable skills and experience as an herbalist are best highlighted in Em’s Herbals original tea blends. Right now, most of North America is facing the double whammy of longer nights, plus wintry weather moving in. Here we do a deep dive into Certified Organic Winter Defense Tea—one of our most popular medicinal teas—and what makes it so great!

It’s a potent combination of certified organic herbs that can help you stay well when “the crud is going around”… and speed your recovery if you’ve already got it. It even tastes good!

So—what’s in it?

Echinacea Root, native to North America, traditionally used by native tribes to treat colds, flus, and other infections; extensively researched for its immune-stimulating, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory actions.

Black Elderberries, long treasured on both sides of the Atlantic as a cold preventive and remedy; tasty and nutritious as well as immune boosting, and also the subject of considerable positive research.

Licorice Root, a Eurasian species that has played a considerable role in classical Far Eastern, South Asian, Egyptian, and Greek healing systems; an herb offering many benefits—tonifying, expectorant, antimicrobial, so very soothing for sore throats and coughs, and imparting a powerful sweetness that really helps the flavor of many herbal blends.

Marshmallow Root, another classic Eurasian healing and food plant (shown in image above); well known since antiquity for its mucilaginous nature, coating and comforting inflamed membranes including the nasal passages, throat, and lungs, and adding further antimicrobial action.

Wild Cherry Bark, from a Western Hemisphere tree cultivated and used medicinally by native peoples; its actions include a remarkable effect of sedating the cough reflex, making it a standby in many formulas for respiratory infections and congestive lung conditions.

Challenges to the immune system can arise at any time of the year, of course, but the colder months really put us to the test. Certified Organic Winter Defense Tea belongs in your herbal toolbox throughout the year—don’t be caught without it when the cold season comes on!

It’s so easy to brew herbal teas! Use a tablespoon of tea per cup of water. Pour boiling water over the herbal blend, let it steep for at least 20 minutes, strain, and enjoy the tea, hot or cold. (A teapot or mug with a strainer comes in real handy for this simple operation, and we sell those, too!)
