This warming, herbal tea blend is crafted to support the cardiovascular system, stimulate circulation, and help regulate cholesterol. Rosemary contributes the terpene pinene, promoting alertness and respiratory support, while gingerol compounds in ginger reduce inflammation and support blood flow. The result is a soothing, spicy, and slightly piney tea that invigorates without caffeine.
