Introduction

When the chill of winter arrives, so do the inevitable colds and flus. As someone who values natural remedies, I wanted to create something that could help alleviate symptoms and provide warmth during those dreary days. Enter Flu/Cold Tea Bombs! These little gems are not only simple to make but are also loaded with ingredients known for their health benefits. After preparing a big batch and freezing them, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to brew a cup of comfort whenever the need arose. My family loved them, and I found myself reaching for these tea bombs more often than I expected. Here’s how you can make your own!
