Additional Optional Add-in
There's an herbal tincture I also like to add: licorice. It can be added to the blender before blending or stirred into the hot cup of tea after serving.
Licorice is not only an anti-inflammatory and excellent for the endocrine system (the body's system of hormones and glands); it also aids in digestion.
