Peppermint fennel cardamom tea is a wonderfully aromatic and soothing herbal blend that offers a range of health benefits. Here’s how each ingredient contributes to the tea:
Peppermint: Known for its refreshing taste, peppermint is great for digestion, easing headaches, and reducing nausea. Its menthol component provides a cooling sensation and can also help with respiratory issues.
Fennel: Fennel seeds have a mild, sweet, licorice-like flavor and are often used to aid digestion, reduce bloating, and soothe stomach discomfort. Fennel is also rich in antioxidants.
Cardamom: Cardamom adds a warm, spicy note and is known for its anti-inflammatory and digestive properties. It’s also a natural detoxifier and can help freshen breath.
