Immune Boosting Tea recipe (2024)

Immune Boosting Tea is a home remedy that boosts your immune system, fights colds, eases sore throats and calms coughs! I call this apple cider vinegar tea the “magical elixir” because it works like magic!

When you have 8 people in your family a sickness usually means you’re all down and out forat leasta week, at the very best.

However, I can’t live my life in fear (read: I can’t be a totalhermit) all winter long. So I rely on this Immune Boosting Tea to help our bodies fight all the pesky germs we come in contact with (and hand washing, lots and lots of hand washing).

If someone in my family even hints at being sick, I make everyone a warm cup of this apple cider vinegar tea before we go to bed that night. I once had a friend come over who had been coughing all day. I made her a cup of this tea and her cough disappeared.

This immune boosting tea is super simple to mix up because it’s made with only four ingredients, including water! It’s a home remedy that will boost your immune system, fight colds, ease a sore throat and calm your cough! I call it the “magical elixir” because of how effective it is at relieving pesky cold and flu symptoms!

How to make Immune Boosting Tea

It’s really simple! Just add all the ingredients to a mug, stir, let cool and enjoy!

Immune Boosting Tea: Health Benefits

Let’s chat a little bit about how this teaboth prevents and eases cold symptoms.

• Water.One of the best things you can do for yourself when you feel a cold coming on is staying hydrated.
• Lemon juice.This powerhouse is full of vitamin C, which we all know helps boost immunity. It also contains vitamin B6 which calms nausea. Lemon juice aids in digestion and actually helps fight infections because it has antibacterial properties!
• Raw honey.It’s full of antioxidants and has both anti-fungal and antibacterial properties, which means that it helps kill germs. Plus, honey coats your throat which helps soothe soreness and calm coughs.
• Apple Cider Vinegar.The main substance in ACV is acetic acid, which kills bacteria and helps your body fight off infections. It is also anti-inflammatory, and inflammation contributes to many illnesses. (try this apple cider vinegar salad dressing)!
