Lyme-Friendly Tea

Just tried it this morning and I thought it was pretty delicious!  It uses Almond milk, Coconut Oil, and a tea of your preference.  I've been using Green Tea because its a good detox option.  Coconut Oil is supposed to be really good for you.  Just check out some of its benefits!


  • Helps the immune system build a resistance to infection and bacteria
  • Helps in fighting fugus, yeast overgrowth, and Candida
  • Assists thyroid control and regulates blood sugar
  • Increases metabolism, energy, and endurance.
  • Lowers cholesterol.
  • WEIGHT BALANCER!  (That alone should pack you in the car to go buy some asap!)
You can obviously cook with it, use it on your skin, hair, etc....or just take it by the spoonful.  I couldn't really manage that one; a little too oily for my taste.  I was trying to let it melt in my tea, but it made the tea really oily and hard to drink.

Thus, this recipe!  It honestly comes out like a latte! You would never ever guess there was coconut oil in it!  Enjoy!

Ingredients:
1-2tbsp Coconut Oil
splash of Almond Milk
Blender, Magic Bullet, or Immersion blender
Tea of choice


Brew your tea and let the bag sit for a little bit to infuse the flavor.


Add the Coconut Oil.  Coconut oil comes as a solid, so just drop it into the tea and let it melt by stirring.


It'll look a little oily and (kinda gross) but I promise it will taste good and you won't even know its in there!  Add as much Almond milk as you'd like. (if you're able to do sugar, you could also add in a splash of vanilla extract or honey)


Blend for a little bit till the mixture becomes pale and frothy.


Poor into pretty teacup, add a dash of cinnamon and there you go! A healthy, yummy Coconut Oil Latte!
