The Digestive Tea is wonderful for alleviating bloating and improving digestion. It also tastes delicious and is very soothing. Feel free to adjust it as needed and add honey or any other sweetener you prefer. Keep in mind that peppermint can cause acid reflux in some people, so omitting it from the recipe will not diminish its digestive benefits. Enjoy!
