Pukka Elderberry & Echinacea
Pukka saying:
‘Elderberries & inky blackcurrants crowned with the beauty of FairWild elderflowers. A sumptuous embrace of wellbeing’.
I need some wellbeing after this Christmas evening.
Normally what I like the best about Christmas evenings, is when they are over… 😉
I am not a big lover of traditions and unwritten rules…
On the other hand I love the spontaneous, surprising and funny things in life…
Tasting Pukka Elderberry & Echinacea
This blend consists of licorice root, ginger root, echinacea root and leaf (10%), beetroot, aniseed, elderflower (8%), peppermint leaf, orange peel, elderberry (6%), rosehip, acerola juice flavour, orange essential oil flavour and natural blackcurrant flavour.
While drinking this tea, a sweet, warming and spicy sensation meets my tongue.
A lovely deep berry taste, you will love it, if you love berries. Almost tastes like a delicious fruit juice.
Perfect for a lazy afternoon with a good book during the Christmas holidays.
What is Echinacea
Echinacea is a native North American coneflower that was discovered and used as a traditional herbal remedy for more than 400 years by the Indian tribes.
Echinacea has been identified as having anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiviral properties and as an immune-strengthening agent.
This makes it a very popular herbal supplement that’s available in many commercial products. One of the common ways to use Echinacea is to drink it in a tea.
- It fights the flu
- It helps control blood sugar
- Aids healthy cell growth
- Potentially reduces risk of breast cancer
