Honey-clove tea in a mug

Honey-Clove Tea

Honey-clove tea has been known for centuries for its immune-boosting and soothing effects. Honey has natural antibacterial properties, while cloves and cinnamon are warming spices that help in cold weather. This drink is often recommended for colds and sore throats, but it's also a perfect choice for a quiet, intimate evening. Adding freshly squeezed lemon juice makes the flavor even fresher and more balanced. Tip: For an even more intense aroma, try it with a pinch of grated ginger!
