If you're currently staying at home, it’s tempting to pour an alcoholic drink once it gets to 6pm. Right?! But your immune system won’t thank you. Instead, try this equally refreshing drink that still feels grown up and will strengthen your ability to fight infections.

🔸 Organic Burst Baobab is a super effective immune support, thanks to its non-acidifying Vitamin C that’s very easy for your body to absorb and utilise.
🔸 The soluble fibre in our Baobab helps to keep your gut bacteria healthy – a vital step in improving immune function, since a huge amount of immune activity takes place in the gut.
🔸 Peppermint tea has antibacterial, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties, to help protect you against illness. Menthol, one of its essential oils, can make breathing feel easier. The tea also contains traces of Vitamin C, calcium, B Vitamins and potassium that are all helpful to the immune system.
🔸 Lemons provide natural Vitamin C that’s quickly and effectively used by your body, along with a host of bioflavonoids for resistance to bacteria and viruses. Yaass!
🔸 Sparkling water gives the ‘ade’ to this lemonade, so zingy with these citrus flavours, and of course keeps you hydrated.
🔸 If you like a little sweetness, go for coconut sugar because it contains small amounts of minerals and antioxidants so it won’t deplete you like other simple sugars.

How to 👇:
-
🔹 Keep Vitamin C levels topped up by drinking several glasses over the course of the day or evening 2-3 hours apart.
🔹 #Tip It’s also a great digestion booster – peppermint tea is renowned for soothing the digestive system, plus the soluble fibre in our Baobab can help ease bloating. Perfect after a meal.
🔹 If you’re feeling under the weather and prefer a warm immune boosting drink, leave out the ice and sparkling water, and replace with hot water.
