Here’s the perfect winter tea to boost your immunity

With the addition of a few important herbs and spices of organic origin, you can make yourself a perfect winter tea to boost your immunity and stay safe during the pandemic. 

Indians need no excuse to grab a cup of their favourite masala tea, be it summers, winters or monsoon. A cup of tea is like a remedy to all problems, but it becomes very important for us to be mindful of the ingredients used. A cup of hot tea in itself makes for a very healthy beverage, but the moment you throw in some sugar, it starts to lose out on the needed nutrition.

Thankfully, there are some ways you can easily 'healthify'  your tea drinking experience. Our kitchens are stocked with a range of spices that come packed with various benefits. For instance, Orco Organic Cloves is one such spice. This spice comes in an aromatic pod and has been a staple ingredient of so many Ayurvedic Kadha recipes, and there are plenty of reasons why you should start including this wonder spice in your daily preparations too.

From helping with weight loss to boosting immunity, a cup of masala tea, if made right and consumed in moderation, could prove to be a healing drink that could change your life for good.

For centuries, we have found a companion in a cup of masala tea. This hot beverage cannot only rejuvenate one instantly but also fortify us with nutrients. This special winter tea concoction is made with a bunch of Orco’s organic spices brimming with health benefits and nutrition.

With the current world situation, day by day we are getting more and more conscious about our health and well-being. In traditional ayurvedic indian medicine, spices like Orco organic black pepper, organic turmeric, organic clove, organic ginger powder, organic garlic powder and organic jaggery powder have been infamous for their healing properties. Studies have also proven the potent abilities of these organic spices to fight chronic infections and help boost immunity.

Spices like Orco organic black pepper and organic cloves are enriched with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that further help build immunity naturally. These spices also come packed with antioxidants that help with the free radical activity. Free radical activity is a dangerous chain reaction that causes premature ageing of cells, increase oxidative and also takes a toll on your immunity.

Orco organic ginger powder is a pungent spice that can turn around the flavour of anything it is added to. It is an ayurvedic and traditional remedy for indigestion and bloating.

All of us have our own special ways of making masala tea, this particular winter tea recipe does not use a whole lot of spices but just the essential ones. Try having this concoction once every day, and see its impact for yourself and your family.
