Turmeric tea

Every ingredient in this nourishing brew is a powerhouse for health. Turmeric—a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant spice—is the star of the show. Black tea, cinnamon, honey and oat milk play supporting roles, bringing an extra dose of anti-inflammatory properties along with flavor and sweetness.

Turmeric tea makes an excellent afternoon pick-me-up, or use decaf black tea for an evening wind-down brew.
