Yesterday Pema had a little cold with runny nose and sneezing so I made her a little tea that she sipped all day long. She kicked the cold and was totally fine today so I thought I’d share this simple recipe.
Handful of fresh peppermint leaves (appropriate for first onset cold symptoms)
10 sprigs of fresh thyme (antibacterial and antifungal for nasal congestion)
5 sprigs of fresh oregano (also antibacterial and antifungal for nasal congestion)
Peel of one orange or tangerine (dissolves phlegm)
Steep in hot water for at least 15 minutes. May be resteeped but first infusion will be the most effective.
