With origins in India, warm and soothing Masala Chai is black tea steeped with fragrant and healing spices like clove, cardamom, and peppercorns. Feel free to get creative and experiment with your own chai blend, adding more or less of your favorite or not-so-favorite spices.

Herbs can have magical effects from supporting immune systems to fighting inflammation to boosting cognitive function. Rosemary, sage, mint, and lemon balm have all been shown to support memory, focus, and other cognitive functions. What’s more, steeping them together as a tea is a wonderful way to enjoy a flavorful beverage that hydrates and heals with every sip.

With the combination of greens, lemon, pineapple, flax, and ginger, this smoothie is an anti-inflammatory win! Don’t worry, the flavors are balanced, so it also tastes really good!

Smoothies are one of the easiest and tastiest ways to add as many diverse ingredients to one meal as possible. This one is even more special because it includes the perfect prescription for a healthy gut: prebiotic fiber (banana), probiotic bacteria (yogurt), colorful phytonutrients (pineapple and kale), and even more fiber from the chia seeds! Start your morning with this refreshing smoothie to kickstart your day (and gut!).

There’s no need for alcohol when you have this antioxidant-charged beverage on hand. Sip on your Pomegranate Sangria outside as you watch the trees, listen to the birds, and feel the grass underneath your feet. And don’t forget to take some deep breaths to let it all soak in. Consider this your safe and comforting place when you need a reprieve from the daily tasks of life.

Warming, comforting, and nourishing, you’ll feel the essence of this cider before you even start sipping through its natural cinnamon, apple and cranberry aromas. Made with 100 percent cranberry and apple juices (no sugar added!) that are infused with ginger and cinnamon spice, Slow Cooker Cranberry Apple Cider is one to celebrate throughout the year—enjoy it warm in the winter and pour it over ice in the summer.

Naturally sweet blueberries, zesty ginger, and earthy greens make a refreshing and energizing smoothie to jump-start your morning or invigorate your afternoon. Use any greens you have on hand, and if strong-flavored greens are growing in your garden (such as dandelion or kale), decrease the bitterness by adding more blueberries for sweetness or ginger for added zing!

An adaptation of the popular Indian beverage, this Mango Lassi is made with plant-based milk instead of dairy and includes a bit of lime juice to brighten the flavor. Enjoy it as is or have fun creating refreshing popsicles out of the blend!

A creamy-rich chocolate smoothie that’s also nutrient-rich (and with the option of getting in some greens)!

Invigorating and refreshing are two words that may come to mind after you take a sip of this healing Ginger Turmeric Pineapple Lemonade. Ginger adds a bit of heat that is a great match to the sweet pineapple juice, earthly turmeric and refreshing mint. Use fresh ginger and turmeric if you’re able to find them as they really make a difference in the freshness of the drink. However, ground turmeric and ginger are lovely options as well!
