Customers praised this tea for its effectiveness against cold and flu symptoms, with relief within 2 days. Reviewers enjoyed the "light citrus flavour" and found it "soothing" for throat and sinuses. One customer noted the tea leaves are very fine and settle at the bottom. Most found it great for symptom relief and enjoyable anytime.
- Within 2 days my symptoms were all gone. I highly recommend it.
- Light citrus flavour that tastes refreshing not overpowering. Very enjoyable for any time.
- Gentle spices gave me soothing warmth and instant relief. Highly recommend this tea!
Flu Fighter and Immunitea Shield are the perfect 1-2 punch for cold and flu season.
Flu Fighter soothes my throat and clears my sinuses. Even breathing in the aroma is so comforting.
Immunitea Shield fortifies my system so I am less likely to catch seasonal bugs and recovery is faster in the case that I do fall sick.
Way better than Cold 911 from David’s Tea—and tastier too! Highly recommend.
I really enjoyed this tea. I wasn’t sick but was excited to try it.
Even though I’m not sick I decided to try Flu Fighter. Love this tea. It has a light citrus flavour that tastes refreshing not overpowering. Very enjoyable for any time
I tend to look for a more natural way to relieve my cold and flu symptoms. It’s not easy trying to fight off what’s going around . I decided to purchase Flu Fighter as a “ just in case” I need it. Recently I woke up with a drippy nose and thought that it was the beginnings of a cold. I started on the Flu Fighter and within 2 days my symptoms were all gone. I highly recommend it.
Best tea
First cup of tea was this, great flavor. Great value
It works for my scratch throat and soothing g but I find its very fine and gifts through in the bottom of my cup. Otherwise great.
You’re absolutely right - this blend is finer so it pairs evenly with lemongrass, the key ingredient in Flu Fighter. We’re so glad to hear it’s been soothing and working well for you!
I felt awful - I had a scratchy throat and a stuffy nose - until I tried Flu Fighter. The gentle spices in this blend gave me soothing warmth and instant relief.
After a couple of cups, my throat felt better, and I could breathe easier. Highly recommend this tea!
