As the days shorten and winter draws us inward, few rituals feel as comforting as cupping a warm mug of fragrant tea. Christmas teas—rich with spice, citrus, and warming herbs—have a surprisingly long and magical history. These blends trace back through centuries of winter solstice ceremonies, medieval feasts, and herbal traditions designed to bring warmth, joy, and vitality during the darkest time of year.

As the air turns crisp and the leaves begin to fall, our bodies and minds naturally shift into a slower, more reflective rhythm. Fall is the season of grounding, warmth, and preparation... a time to nourish ourselves deeply before winter’s arrival. The best herbs for fall wellness are herbs that warm, comfort, and strengthen the immune system so that they are especially supportive during this transitional time.
