Have a Cup of Herbal Tea
In the cold months, I love to have two to three cups or nice hot herbal teas. Herbal teas have many additional health benefits. They are best when sweetened with stevia or other all natural sweeteners.

When you make tea it is best to boil the water first, turn off add your herbs and allow it to sit for about 15 to 20 minutes for optimum benefits.
