The Cold Crusher

You don't have to wait until you have a cold or allergy symptoms to enjoy this drink, it's fabulous any day! But if you are suffering from a cold or allergy this drink should help you be on the mend soon!  It's hot green tea mixed with peppermint tea that is infused with steamed lemonade and sweetened with honey. This drink is also great over ice!

We call this drink the Cold Crusher because:

  • Jade Cloud green tea (green tea has antioxidants that can take away bad bacteria and could relieve congestion and coughing).

  • Steamed Lemonade (the lemonade gives you a burst of tart citrus flavor and vitamin C while the warmth of this drink helps to open up a stuffy nose)

  • Peppermint Tea (Peppermint tea has been known to relax your muscles and may help to relieve a headache)

  • Honey (honey has been associated with sore throat relief and may also calm a cough).
