As the temperatures drop and the air gets crisp, there’s nothing better than snuggling up with a hot drink to warm you up. However, one downside of this cozy season is that it often brings along colds and flu. Staying healthy during this season doesn’t have to be complicated though, because there are plenty of drinks that can boost your immunity and will keep you warm on cold days! From rich and spiced teas to nutrient-packed hot apple cider, here are some delicious fall drinks that’ll keep your immune system strong.
Turmeric-Ginger Tea
Turmeric and ginger are the best duo when it comes to boosting your immunity, they also relieve chronic pain and decrease inflammation. Although this drink is a bit spicy, it will benefit you greatly if you suffer from a sore throat and help fight seasonal flu.
Apple Cider with Cinnamon
Not only is it a fall classic, but apple cider also has plenty of benefits for your overall health. Cinnamon and cloves contain antioxidants that combat inflammation, while apple cider’s vitamin C boosts immunity. You can even add a slice of ginger or ginger powder for an extra kick and extra health benefits.
Citrus Green Tea
Green tea is known to be packed with antioxidants, but did you know that when adding orange or lemon, it has even more benefits? It enhances its flavor and also adds a dose of vitamin C. This mix is perfect in the morning if you’re looking for a natural energy boost.
Immune-Boosting Hot Chocolate
Who said hot chocolate can't be a bit healthy? Instead of regular cocoa, opt for antioxidant-rich dark chocolate, add a pinch of cinnamon whether powder or ground, and turmeric for extra anti-inflammatory power, and you can finish it off with a drizzle of honey if you want for natural sweetness.
