I’ve tried allergy medicines in the past but they were so strong that they’ed knock out the rest of the day. Not good when I’m juggling so many things at work. So after searching around I found a natural allergy tea remedy that’s been helpful for me and I hope it will help you too! Now I have a variety of tea leaves that I’m going to combine. All of these teas can be found separately at the special tea store like David’s Tea, Teavana, or any health food stores. Allergy Relief Tea Recipe: 1/2 Cup Rooibos 1/4 Cup Nettle 1/4 Cup Peppermint 3 Tbsp Lavender Buds 2 slices Lemon Peel Boiling Water Rooibos is a native South African plant. It’s name “rooibos” means "red bush" and describes the leaves and teas made from it. This tea is traditionally used to treat allergies, asthma and skin ailments. Its high flavonoid content makes rooibos an antioxidant powerhouse and immune system stimulant. Next we have some dried Nettle. Nettle is a very potent herb with many uses. It is a natural antihistamine that’s very effective in relieving symptoms like itching, watery eyes, sneezing and a runny nose. Next we have some Peppermint. Peppermint is another popular herb that helps to open up airways and relieve headaches. And now some Lavender buds. Lavender is calming, cleansing, and anti-inflammatory. It also has antiseptic properties that helps cure sinus infections. I’ll put them in an airtight tin and shake to evenly distribute the teas. Now to prepare my allergy fighting tea: I have a lemon and I’ll just shave off 2 pieces of its peel. The oil from the lemon peel brightens the tea and it helps to thin mucous which relieves congestion. Be sure to use organic lemons though! Next I’ll add in 1 tbsp of my tea mixture to my tea strainer. Then I’ll pop that into my teapot. Do you guys like my teapot? I painted it myself at those pottery stores. Isn’t it pretty? I’ll boil some water then pour it into my teapot. I like to drink at least 32 oz of this tea a day to make it completely effective. The tea is pretty tasty too! There's an herbal floral note and the lemon peel really ties it together. Let me know if this allergy tea remedy works for you. I know it won’t be a complete cure but it will relieve any miserable symptoms you have during this pollen-filled season.
