Light as a Lily
Jasmine tea is typically composed of jasmine flowers brewed with green tea, so you get the antioxidant catechins of the tea alongside mood-lifting & nerve-calming effects of the flower. Elderflower liqueur provides sweetness & elderflowers lower blood sugar so the liqueur cancels itself out a bit. Elderflower is also helpful for respiratory issues & is antiseptic enough to be used as a mouthwash.
