Elderflower and elderberry have longstanding places in European and Western herbal traditions, particularly in preparations used during the colder months. Elderflower has traditionally been prepared as a warm tea during colds and feverish illnesses, while elderberries have been made into syrups, cordials, foods, and herbal preparations associated with the cold and flu season.
Yarrow has also traditionally appeared in warm teas during colds and feverish conditions, often alongside elderflower and peppermint. Peppermint has been valued for its cooling aromatic character and traditional use surrounding digestion, head discomfort, and stuffiness, while hyssop has a long history in European herbalism in preparations associated with the respiratory system and coughs.
Ginger contributes warming spice and has centuries of culinary and herbal use, including in warming preparations during cold weather and times of seasonal discomfort. Raspberry leaf adds a mild, grounding herbal character to the formula.
Together, these herbs explain Sniffle's place as one of our cold-season herbal blends and why it pairs so naturally with Immuni-Tea.
