This herbal tea is infused with oat straw, rose hips and hibiscus. To support your body through everyday stress I added one dropper full of the Ashwagandha Transcendent Elixir. I love using roots like Ashwagandha because they are grounding and help you to feel “rooted.” My favorite part of making this herbal tea is watching the hibiscus infuse in the hot water, you see a beautiful crimson red dancing and swirling into the brew.
