New Year, New Tea Blend

New Year, New Tea Blend

By Shannon, Posted in Wellness

A new year whispers promises of fresh starts and reinvention, much like the first sip of a steaming cup of tea. This January, let us brew a blend that cradles your resolutions, offering balance and warmth as you navigate the months ahead.

Sitting at the crook of my windowsill, I imagined a cup that carries the essence of winter's retreat and spring's gentle arrival. With Mayernik Kitchen’s treasure trove of dried herbs and infused jars of honey, we’ll create a tea blend that embodies renewal, nurturing body, mind, and soul.

Ladies and Gentlemen! I present to you ‘The Blend to Renew and Revitalize’. 

It combines herbs chosen for their potent yet soothing qualities, crafting a symphony of flavors that awaken the senses and heal from within.

Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp Holy Basil
  • 1 tsp Lemon Balm
  • 1 tsp Nettle
  • ½ Mountain Mint


Instructions

In a teapot, combine all the herbs.
Pour cups of boiling water over the herbs.
Cover and steep for 5-7 minutes.
Strain and serve hot or iced.

Here’s a look at the benefits of each herb in your revitalizing tea blend:

Holy Basil: It is known for its apoptogenic properties that help the body manage stress, and promote mental clarity and resilience. It is perfect for balancing and revitalizing both the mind and body.

Lemon Balm: It soothes the nervous system, helping with stress reduction and mental clarity. It supports cognitive function, boosting energy without overstimulation.

Nettle: It is packed with nutrients to support overall vitality and offering natural detoxification and immune support to revitalize the body.

Mountain Mint: Its refreshing, cooling qualities promote relaxation while boosting circulation, contributing to a revitalized feeling of refreshment and energy.

As you prepare your tea, let it be a moment of mindfulness. The gentle rustle of dried herbs, the swirl of steam rising from your cup, and the first sip that warms your heart. With every sip, embrace the energy of renewal. This tea is more than a beverage. It’s an embrace from nature, a quiet partner in your journey to wellness and joy.
