Personality
Stimulating and supportive.
Herbal Power
Gets the immune system fired up.
Reason to Love
Echinacea—or purple coneflower—was used by a number of Native American tribes for hundreds of years before it was introduced into Western herbal traditions in the late 1800s. Today, it is one of the most studied herbs. We love how this pleasant-tasting herbal blend supports a healthy immune system response.
Taste
Mildly minty, with a twist of citrus. You may notice echinacea’s characteristic tongue-tingling effect, a sign of very high quality.
Directions
Pour 8 oz. freshly boiled water over 1 tea bag.
Cover cup & Steep for 10-15 minutes.
Squeeze tea bag to ensure maximum goodness in your cup.
Enjoy 5 to 6 cups throughout the day when needed. Good with honey!
Let the tip of your tongue tell all… One of echinacea’s distinguishing characteristics is the presence of alkylamides, which are partly responsible for its capacity to stimulate the immune system. You’ll know that you’ve discovered truly high quality and effective echinacea when you feel a slight tingling on your tongue after drinking the tea. Don’t worry—the tingling will subside quickly, but echinacea’s effects won’t. With two species of echinacea and echinacea extract, for an extra punch, you’ll be feeling good as new in no time.
Ingredients: Organic Echinacea purpurea herb [PhEur], Organic Echinacea purpurea root dry extract, Organic Echinacea angustifolia herb, Organic West Indian lemongrass leaf, Organic spearmint leaf
Company description not available.
My mother started me on Traditional Medicinals Echinacea when I was 7. I know echinacea is good for the immune system, but I like to drink this because it has a nice, mildly sweet flavor. The lemongrass and spearmint (the spearmint being quite obvious, but harmonious) in the blend make it more of an everyday tasty tea than an herbal tea only used for medicinal purposes (i.e. Valerian root).
