Also known as Greenland Labrador tea, it has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and may help relieve pain, muscle aches and headaches. It is also known for its potential benefits in reducing nervousness, stress and thyroid imbalances. It can be enjoyed as an herbal infusion for its medicinal properties or simply for its delicate aroma.
This herbal tea can be enjoyed at any time of day, morning or evening, at a rate of one cup per day. The leaves can also be used to flavour sorbets, sauces and other recipes.
