Colonial Remedies Collection

Colonial Remedies Collection Our bestselling Colonial Remedies are now available in convenient gift sets! The collection of five healing herbal blends, a perfect gift for any tea lover or wellness aficionado. Our Colonial Remedies come from herbal recipes commonly used during the 18th century. Many of these infusions have helped shape Western medicine, and the recipes are still used today to treat ailments and discomforts.    Description: Colonial Remedy No. 3 is the vibrant herb of peppermint. Peppermint is commonly used to freshen the breath and open the sinuses during allergy season but is also used to clear the mind of occasional fogginess. If that morning cup of coffee doesn’t do the trick, try a cup of peppermint tea.   Colonial Remedy No. 5 is Ginger .  Ginger is not only used as a spice for foods. It is commonly employed to aid in digestion, and to calm the stomach. It brings warmth and comfort to the body and lungs with the fragrant spice that can be eaten raw or steeped as a tea.   Lemon Balm is Colonial Remedy No. 6b, a soft citrus aroma that uplifts the spirit for a more youthful feeling. This brightly flavored tea may add a blissful delight to the day as a pick-me-up during lunch or after a long week. This uplifting herb could be enjoyed as a warm tea or as a cold drink.  Cinnamon is Colonial Remedy No. 7b. This rich bark is dried till curled to form a hollow stick and then cut and sifted.  This spice is much like ginger but with a sweeter taste and aroma. Cinnamon is wonderful for occasional indigestion and upset stomach while also having a slight calming effect of warmth.   Packaged in a pyramid style teabag made of biodegradable nonwoven material.   Our latest Colonial Remedy is No. 8, pure Lavender.  Lavender probably has the most widely recognized aroma and is know for its soothing, calming and aromatic qualities.  Colonist thought that lavender could cure over 40 different ailments.  Lavender is a flowering plant in the mint family that is native to the Mediterranean coast.  It is also cultivated for its essential oils and fragrant blossoms, as well as its floral notes.  Unlike our Lavender Tea that contains black tea, this product is pure lavender blossoms and is naturally, decaffeinated.  These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
