Tea itself is a good cold preventative, but its power and effectiveness can always be increased.

Valuable components will help with this.

Expert in culinary issues of the online publication "BelNovosti" chef Yulia Arkhipova spoke about the best additives for the drink.

What options are worth considering?

Lemon

This product perfectly improves the taste of the drink, making it more noble and aromatic. Lemons also help prevent colds.

Zest

Not only fresh lemon will enrich your cup of tea with valuable vitamins: the zest contains even more nutrients. The zest will also give your tea a special "festive" aroma.

Echinacea

Many have probably heard about the amazing properties of the flower to literally build the immune system. This is a completely fair statement.

So, don't forget to add a little bit of the plant to your cup of your favorite drink.

Elder

For some reason, many have forgotten about this wonderful tea additive. However, elderberry has a powerful antibacterial effect.

As a result, you will be reliably protected from colds.
