Elderberries, the star ingredient in our teas, are renowned for their remarkable health benefits. Packed with antioxidants, particularly flavonoids like anthocyanins, elderberries possess powerful immune-boosting properties that can help strengthen the body's defenses against infections and illnesses. Studies have shown that elderberries may reduce the severity and duration of colds and flu by inhibiting the replication of viruses. Additionally, elderberries are rich in vitamins, including vitamin C, which supports immune function, and vitamin A, which promotes healthy skin and vision. These tiny berries also contain essential minerals like potassium and iron, contributing to overall health and vitality. Incorporating elderberries into your daily routine through our teas not only provides a delicious and flavorful experience but also offers a natural way to support your immune system and promote overall well-being.

Elderberry Tea

Our Elderberry Tea blends our dried elderberries, elderflowers, and spices to create flavorful and healthful brews.
