This is the most refreshing yet powerful tea I’ve tried. It’s got the menthol taste with a strong kick of heat. It’s great for a cold but also just as a ‘pick me up’. This is one that I’ll regularly buy.
Works!
*****
Genuinely made me feel better when I was feeling a little bleh. Tastes amazing. Menthol kind of taste.
Delicious
*****
I love teas with a bit of a kick and this certainly doesn't fail.
I would say the tea tastes mainly of aniseed so if you don't like that flavour, stay away.

Sooo helpful when you're ill
I tried my first cup just before a shift at work and it was exactly what I needed to help with my cold. I've been recommending it ever since to friends and family. It's also a nice transitional tea for those who want something refreshing but aren't ready for cold brew drinks
Refreshing
I live this tea with a bit of honey especially when my throat is a bit sore. It really helps soothe a scratchy throat
I'm a believer
I'm a believer in the powers of herbs and especially echinacea. I was in Spain just before they locked down and I had to fly home. The was echinacea growing in the garden. I made my friends drink it. We drank loads before the flight. We never got sick. That could have been due to many things, who knows, but I'm in love with echinacea now. I ordered this and it's delicious. The eucalyptus is tangy and unusual in a good way. It's a bit addictive. I feel it also gives a calming effect. ...Read more
Best minty tea on the market
Since discovering this tea it has become a firm favorite it our household. Always used to drink peppermint tea but this tea has so much more flavour and depth caused by the excellent blend of herbs.
I LOVE IT SO MUCH
As I write this review I am currently drinking some flu fighter tea and it is honestly so nice. It is literally soothing and I feel so nice and cosy!
Comforting & Warm
A really nice blend. Smells incredible and tastes even better. Can’t stop drinking it!
While we are busy fighting
amazing tea and just the job for banishing away those sniffles .. Super tasty easy an all time favourite
Soothing & Refreshing
Bought this to try as the mix of ingredients sounded intriguing, and I predicted I could be feeling poorly in the coming months. This is a fantastic tea -- the eucalyptus is so soothing, and even when you're feeling 100% healthy, this is a very relaxing, comforting cuppa. Liked it much more than I thought I would!
Love this tea sent to my over 70's mum in isolation
Love this tea makes me feel healthy and is nice :) Sent to my home isolated mum and dad who are over 70 my dad not a lover of infusions really likes it . They are drinking daily , so it's got to be good :)
Flu? What flu!
If there’s a cold going round I would always get it, this tea is amazing, it definitely halts the cold bug in its tracks! We (as a family) have this at the first sign of a sniffle, wouldn’t be without it now.
Beat all bugs
I normally hate minty teas but the flavours in this give you a real zing and make you feel better
Drink yourself healthy!
The Brighton store recommended this tea to us last year when we popped in and the staff noticed my horrendous cold. "Simply add a slice of lemon and some runny honey and you're set on the road to recovery!" This tea has since become a winter-must in our home as it really does help! I recently ordered a new batch when my other half suffered from a bad respiratory infection and requested this tea specifically. It simply helps Kung Flu Fight those colds away!...Read more
refreshing
Amazing all the time, but I especially recommend this when you're feeling a bit sick or have a cold.

Lovely
This tea was bought as I was feeling a little under the weather. It definitely helped and perked me right up! I love menthol teas and this is definitely my favourite now!
Move over karate kid...
I absolutely rely on this as soon as I even get the slightest sniffle! Maybe it's the blend, maybe it's pure magic, who knows! But my lil kung flu fighting cuppa knocks it out of the park!
Lovely stuff
After a friend of mine made a cup of this for me when I was poorly I purchased some that very day. Brilliant tea with the added bonus of making you feel healthier.
