The Immune story

The cup every Greek mother makes at the first sneeze

Three herbs, one pot, honey and lemon — the Greek winter protocol, unchanged for generations.

  1. Freshly picked Greek mountain tea
    01Τσάι του βουνού

    Mountain tea

    Wild Sideritis from 1,000 m up on Olympus — among the most antioxidant-rich Mediterranean herbs, brewed for colds, sore throats and resilience.*

  2. Fresh Greek sage leaves
    02Φασκόμηλο

    Sage

    Greek sage from the islands — antimicrobial by long reputation, soothing for a sore throat, with a savory mint lift.*

  3. Lemon verbena growing by a whitewashed Greek wall
    03Λουίζα

    Lemon verbena

    Louiza from the village garden — bright lemon-blossom aroma, traditionally taken to soothe the throat and calm digestion.*

  4. Immune Tea bag with a cup and lemon
    04Τελετουργία

    The ritual

    Brew it strong, stir in raw honey once it cools a little, add lemon, drink hot. Repeat until better.

Mountain tea — Greece's winter cup
Why it works

Greece's antioxidant-rich winter trio

Greek mountain tea (Sideritis) is among the most antioxidant-rich herbs studied in the Mediterranean, traditionally used for colds, sore throats and everyday resilience. Sage adds its antimicrobial reputation; lemon verbena soothes the throat and lifts the aroma.*

Whole-leaf and organic, it is also simply a beautiful daily cup — most of our customers drink it all year.

How to brew

Two ways to brew. One second steep.

Whole leaves and flowers give up their flavour slowly, so the same spoonful brews twice.

Hot

  1. 1 tsp (a good pinch) per 8 oz cup
  2. Water just off the boil (212°F)
  3. Cover and steep 5–7 minutes
  4. Strain, sip — then steep the same leaves again

Cold brew

  1. 4–6 tsp per quart of room-temperature water
  2. Steep 4–6 hours (or overnight in the fridge)
  3. Strain and pour over ice
  4. Optional: add honey or a lemon slice

Honey after, not during. Let the tea cool a minute before stirring in raw Ikaria honey — high heat dulls its enzymes and aroma.

A must try

I first tried this tea a few years ago and absolutely loved it. My family is part Greek and I love mountain tea and drink it regularly through the winter, but this blend elevates the experience by adding two other beautiful herbs to the mix. Just ordered another bag and can't wait for it to arrive.

What an amazing blend! Last

What an amazing blend! Last week I was so sick with fever and sinuses and sore throat and a huge headache and this tea was my go to medicine! It made me feel so much better. It was like a hug in a mug!

Hi Voula!!! Thank you so much for your absolutely amazing review! I can't express how thrilled and touched I am that the Immune tea was able to provide you with the much-needed comfort and relief during your illness. It's truly heartwarming to hear that it helped ease your fever, sinuses, sore throat, and headache.

Your description of our tea as a 'hug in a mug' really brings a smile to my face! I strive to create blends that not only taste great but also offer that warm and comforting feeling like a gentle embrace. Yia mas!

Questions we get most

The same organic blend in a 1 lb (450 g) bag — around 225 cups, or 450 double-steeped. It's the best value per cup and popular with families and offices. Store it sealed, cool and dark.

Hot: 1 teaspoon per 8 oz of just-boiled water, steeped 5–7 minutes. Iced: 4–6 teaspoons per quart of room-temperature water, steeped 4–6 hours. The leaves are generous, so you can re-steep them for a second batch.

Earthy and honeyed from the mountain tea, with sage's savory mint and lemon verbena's bright lemon-blossom perfume. Made for honey and lemon.

No — it's naturally caffeine-free, so you can enjoy it any time, including the evening.

Yes. We never grind, crush or bag our herbs. You see whole leaves, flowers and roots in the bag — and that's why each spoonful steeps twice.

Keep it in a cool, dark, dry place, sealed tight and away from sunlight and moisture. Dried herbs don't expire — they just slowly lose a little aroma and potency over time, so they're best enjoyed within about two years for peak flavor.

Our teas are natural, certified-organic herbs with nothing added. But pregnancy and breastfeeding are times to be a little extra careful — some herbs aren't recommended then, and everyone's situation is different. We always recommend checking with your doctor or midwife before adding a new herbal tea to your routine.

From our U.S. fulfillment center within 1 business day. Standard delivery takes 2–4 business days and is free on orders over $79.

Unopened products can be returned within 14 days of delivery for a full refund — we send you the return label, free of charge. And if you're unsure, start with a sampler set.

From the founder

Yia mas — to your health.

I grew up on Ikaria, where herbs were not a wellness trend — they were what my grandmother picked on the hillside, dried on the roof and brewed every evening for whoever walked through the door.

Real leaves and roots, never the broken dust sealed into a bag.

Every plant we sell is harvested at peak potency, hand-cut, air-dried the traditional way and hand-packed. Nothing added, nothing taken away.
