As the seasons change and the temperature drops, we know that cold and flu season is beginning to set in. When that inevitable sniffle, sore throat, or fever strikes, nothing can soothe your soul like a comforting cup of tea.

While any cup of tea with a bit of honey might quell that sore throat for a bit, well dive into a variety of specially curated teas designed to help you feel better and recover faster.

So if youre wondering what the best tea remedy for a sick day is, we'll explore the benefits of four great blends and why they are perfect for when you're under the weather.

1. Throat Therapy

Throat Therapy is specifically crafted to provide relief for your sore, scratchy throat. This soothing blend combines honeybush tea with licorice root, marshmallow root, and sage.

What do each of these ingredients do to provide you with fast and soothing relief? Lets break it down.

While licorice root provides a sweet flavor, studies have also shown that it can act as an anti-inflammatory agent for your throat, helping to reduce irritation and that scratchy feeling. Marshmallow root has mucilaginous properties that coat and further soothe the throat, and sage has antimicrobial properties that can help relieve inflammation even more.

Being caffeine-free also means you can enjoy much-needed rest on the road to recovery. Together, these ingredients create a tea that will ease your sore throat and promote overall wellness.

2. Lemongrass Ginger

Lemongrass Ginger is another favorite for these cold winter days, offering a refreshing and invigorating flavor.

This caffeine-free herbal tea combines two potent ingredients for cold and flu relief. Lemongrass is a rich source of vitamins and antioxidants that can boost the immune system, allowing you to start feeling better faster. Ginger has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. Ginger is especially good at soothing nausea and can help with an upset stomach and even vomiting.

Lemongrass Ginger is a go-to tea when you need a comforting beverage to help calm your stomach and get back on your feet.

3. Minty Comfort

For those times when you're seeking relief from congestion and a stuffy nose, Minty Comfort is your answer. This tea combines peppermint, spearmint, and ginger, offering a variety of benefits.

Peppermint and spearmint provide relief from congestion, working to open up your airways. Peppermint has also been used in aromatherapy as an invigorating and awakening scent. If youve read this far, you already know how great ginger is, and this will help further soothe your stomach and boost your immune system.

Minty Comfort is perfect for those moments when you feel like your sinuses are clogged and you need some relief and a pick-me-up.

4. Speedy Recovery

The fourth tea is a blend that aids in faster healing and will get you ready to take on the world again.

Speedy Recovery is an herbal tea that consists of elderberry, echinacea, and lemongrass, which all work together to contribute to your recovery. Elderberry is known for its antiviral properties, helping combat cold and flu symptoms. Echinacea has been shown to enhance your immune system, reducing the severity and duration of illness, while lemongrass offers additional immune-boosting benefits.

To top it all off, a low dose of caffeine will give you that extra boost to get out of bed. Speedy Recovery is the ideal tea when you want to bounce back quickly from your sick day.
