Autumn Tea

Autumn Tea

Fresh mandarin juice gives this tea a bright autumn twist. A little clove and cinnamon make it fragrant and warming. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Black tea flavonoids have been linked in human trials to improved endothelial function. Use tangerines if you prefer a tangier finish and sweeten with honey only if you need it.
