Immune Tonic Tea

This delicious tasting tea warms the body and enhances overall immune health. Astragalus and codonopsis are traditionally used to deeply rebuild the immune system. Traditionally, cinnamon and ginger warm the body, licorice root moistens the lungs and strengthens the adrenal glands, and cooked rehmannia nourishes and builds the blood.* Simmer the roots for 30 minutes. Rice, nut milks, or yummy raw milk can be added once the tea is brewed. 3 Tbl makes one quart. Discontinue this tea during the acute stages of a fever, cold or flu and resume after all symptoms have subsided.

Avena’s organic Biodynamic® gardens produce 70% of the herbs used in our products. We apply organic compost and Biodynamic® preparations to nourish the soil and hand harvest our herbs following seasonal cycles. Some herbs are respectfully wildcrafted or organically grown by others who share our philosophy of care and respect for our Mother Earth.
