1 Cup…Cleanses Lungs, Strengthens Respiratory & Immune System | Oregano And Lemon Tea

Oregano and Lemon Tea Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup water
  • 1-2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves (or a small handful of fresh oregano)
  • Juice of half a lemon (about 1-2 tablespoons)
  • 1-2 teaspoons honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • A pinch of ground turmeric or black seed (optional, for extra health benefits)

Instructions:

  1. Boil Water: Bring 1 cup of water to a gentle boil.
  2. Add Oregano: Place the oregano leaves in a tea infuser or directly in the water. If using dried oregano, 1-2 teaspoons is usually enough; for fresh oregano, use a small handful.
  3. Steep: Let the oregano steep in hot water for 5-10 minutes. This allows the essential oils to infuse, which contributes to the tea’s respiratory benefits.
  4. Strain and Add Lemon: Remove the oregano (if not using an infuser, strain the tea). Add the juice of half a lemon.
  5. Sweeten and Add Extras (optional): Stir in honey to taste, and add a pinch of turmeric or black seed if desired.

How to Enjoy:

  • Best Time: Drink this tea in the morning to start the day or in the evening as a warm, relaxing drink. You can have it up to twice a day.
  • Benefits: Oregano contains carvacrol and thymol, both of which support lung health, while lemon provides vitamin C, supporting the immune system.
