Detox Tea
Sometimes it';s the simple things that are the best! This earthy tasting tea is a brilliant Spring/Summer detox using two common garden weeds , stinging nettle and cleaver , also known as sticky willy! Nettles nourish the blood and cleanse the body through increased urination (also provide lots of protein when eaten!) while cleavers improve the complexion, reduce puffiness under the eyes and reduce fluid retention in the skin.
