Ginger Peppermint Tea is not really a true tea. There are no tea leaves in the original recipes for this herbal infusion.

Herbal Infusions are what teas and tonics that contain no tea leaves are called. Ginger Peppermint Tea is 100% naturally caffeine free. Neither of these two herbs contain caffeine.

Ginger Peppermint Tea is an old remedy for upset stomachs and the chills due to colds and flues.

Peppermint is known as a herb that can be used to treat the following ailments:

Headaches
Skin Irritations
Anxiety
Depression
Nausea
Diarrhea
Menstrual Cramps
Flatulence

Peppermint leaves are usually harvested fresh in early summer. Fresh leaves make the very best teas and tonics. Make sure you are buying organic leaves if you are purchasing your herbs and roots.

While the ginger root is known for its thermogenic properties that warm you from the inside out. In animal studies, ginger has been shown to help maintain body temperature and inhibit serotonin-induced hypothermia.

Ginger also has strong antioxident properties and can lower ...
... cholesterol. It is also beneficial for those with heart problems and high blood pressure.

The two together work in harmony to relieve upset stomachs, fever, and the chills. Ginger also contains some pain relieving qualities as well as anti inflammatory properties to relieve head aches, sore muscles and sore joints.

Sounds like the perfect cure for cold and flu season!
