RECOVERY - Apoteacary™ Tea-Blending Guide

Congratulations on starting your Recovery journey with this tea-blending kit!
All the ingredients in this kit have been carefully picked by our in-house nutritionist to bring you the most effective experience.

Whenever we undergo a bout of illness, our bodies use up and sometimes deplete our stores of cell-building and healing nutrients. It is important to note that we'll need to replenish what was used up so that we can continue to recover and heal.

It is equally important to introduce lots of proteins in your recovery diet as they're the very building blocks of our immunity systems. The accompaniment of these teas will bring much aid to your body as it deals with fighting.

Please take some time to slow down to read the efficacies and nutritional benefits of each ingredient. And then select 2 - 3 ingredients to be placed in the tea bags provided, to make a teaspoon's worth (about 3g).

Steep your filled tea bags in 200ml of boiling hot water to allow the heat to draw out the beautiful aroma of each ingredient for 5 - 10 mins, before taking a breath in of the fragrance and taking your first sip.

Each cup is good for one refill.
