What is in Chamomile and Turmeric Tea?

Our chamomile and turmeric tea is a special blend of herbs, flowers and love. Here is exactly what goes into our herbal tea:

• Dried chamomile- You can also use caffeine-free chamomile tea bags if you cannot find dried chamomile flowers. Chamomile has a mellow sweetness to it that is a little fruity but also slightly floral. That sweet taste goes perfectly with the peppery flavors of turmeric.
• Coconut oil- Coconut oil adds a little sweetness to the drink and also gives it a creamy texture.
• Almond milk- We love the subtle flavor of almond milk which goes wonderfully with the flavors in a cup of chamomile tea. Feel free to use any kind of milk you’d like- they will all work!
• Ground turmeric- Our recipe use ground turmeric as it is the easiest to find in stores. If you happen to have some fresh turmeric root, peel it and steep it which the chamomile. This will make an even more powerful tea.
• Ground ginger- Ground ginger adds a nice kick to the cup of tea. Ginger has it’s own set of amazing nutrients that adds to the chamomile tea benefits.
• Honey- Honey adds a natural sweetness to our chamomile tea. Honey does not raise blood sugar like other sweeteners which makes it a good choice for a night time drink.
