{"product_id":"elderberry-immunitea","title":"Elderberry Immunitea","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe jammy, citrus-bright cup for everyday immune support.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElderberry Immunitea is an organic herbal blend built around elderberries, the dark, jammy fruit reached for in European herbalism for centuries. We pair the berries with echinacea, orange peel for brightness, licorice root for natural sweetness, and a whisper of spearmint to finish. Elderberry and echinacea are traditionally enjoyed for everyday immune support,* which makes this the cup to reach for on the days you want to take a little extra care of yourself. The cup tastes like berry cobbler with a citrus edge. No artificial sweeteners, no flavorings. Just the fruit and the roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy these five ingredients work together.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElderberries (\u003cem\u003eSambucus nigra\u003c\/em\u003e) have been a staple of Western herbalism since at least the 5th century BCE. The berries are rich in anthocyanins, the pigment compounds that give them their deep purple color and their long-standing reputation. Echinacea (\u003cem\u003eEchinacea purpurea\u003c\/em\u003e) comes from the Plains tribes of North America, who used the root long before it entered European pharmacopeias in the early 1900s. Licorice root brings natural sweetness (50 times sweeter than sugar by weight) without any added sugar. Orange peel cuts through the richness with bright, oils-forward citrus. Spearmint cools the finish. Five ingredients, five purposes, one cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to enjoy it.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteep 1.5 teaspoons in 8 ounces of full-boil water for 7 minutes. Drink hot, or cold-brew overnight (2 teaspoons in 16 ounces) and keep a pitcher in the fridge for the week. The traditional herbalism approach is consistency: the same cup, the same time, every day. A daily ritual, not a rescue. Blended in our Salem, Oregon kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eContains licorice root.
