This herbal tea for allergies is inspired by those small, cute, furry little balls of fluff known as Tribbles from Star Trek: The Original Series.
Tribbles were simply adorable, and they made this cooing noise, almost like a purr but not exactly. The trouble with tribbles (see what I did there) is that they multiplied, multiplied again, then multiplied some more, until everywhere was overrun with these now not so cute, not so adorable, pesky little creatures.
Allergies kind of end the same way, pesky and more of a problem than you first thought. I created this tea blend with herbs known to help with inflammation for my son who moved to Kentucky and found allergies to be a bit more than he could handle. So, I started experimenting with herbal combinations to help him manage his allergy symptoms without causing a great deal of drowsiness.
The combination I landed on includes Nettle leaf which comes from a pretty little shrub that has been used for centuries in herbal medicine and is the base for many spring tonics for hay fever. Bee pollen, which is also commonly used for seasonal allergies by helping to build a resistance to them. Licorice root, peppermint, eucalyptus, and tulsi which all have mild anti-inflammatory properties, adding boost after boost of allergy fighting ingredients to this tea blend. I also threw in some hibiscus to add a tangy tartness to this herbaceous tonic, along with a little color.
So, give this herbal tea blend a try as it is sure to ease your troubles, whether you have been overrun by tribbles or those pesky allergies. Remember, we are not doctors, nor are we recommending this for medical conditions. Please check with your doctor before consuming.

I LOVED Tribbles on Star Trek. Makes me think about time spent with my dad. The whole reason for purchasing. Will definitely try steeping this as a fridge tea.
Nice herbal mix. I didn't drink this for my allergies, but it was a nice side benefit.
I tried this tea when I was having a horrible time with seasonal allergies, and I'm thoroughly impressed. The scent and color are lovely, and flavor is delicious. Best of all, it actually helps my allergies! I could see this replacing meds on my lighter symptom days, and it helps a lot in conjunction with the meds on days when I'm in allergy-sinus misery. Easily the most pleasant way I've ever found to help mitigate my allergies.
I was skeptical that this would actually work against my seasonal allergies. I mostly got it because I love Star Trek. But the other day I went into a full sneezing fit and half my face felt like it would explode from the congestion. By the time I finished my first cup, my symptoms were actually easing. Now not only am I buying it for myself, I bought a sample for my Trekkie dad to try!
I have been drinking Sleepytime Sinus Soothers tea on a daily basis for about a year now for both my sinuses and because I liked the taste. I have allergies, but do not like to take medication if I can avoid it and the tea helped a bit. I stumbled across this company when searching for high quality nettle tea since I figured the quality of the herbs in the Sleepytime Tea probably wasn't the greatest, and decided to give this a try once I read the ingredients. The tea is great, I really like the taste and now the Sinus Soother tea that I loved so much tastes like a sad, watered down substitute.
I'm not going to sit here and claim that this product is as effective as taking a Pseudoephedrine based allergy medicine, it does make a noticable difference in the swelling and itchy eyes/nose I get when my allergies are acting up without having to deal with the jitters and dehydration that I get from the medicine.
