Calm a sore throat with licorice root and slipper elm bark with this soothing blend, full of warming ginger, cinnamon and aniseed. Often called sweetwood, licorice contains an alkaloid called glycyrrhizin which is 50 times sweeter than sugar. This tea is full of anti-inflammatory and immune boosting ingredients. While this tea is excellent to have available going into cold & flu season, we highly recommend it for singers, public speakers or anyone that finds their voice being strained.
