Lemon–Ginger–Garlic Sipper Recipe
Seasonal Detox & Digestive Fire Support
Cooler months naturally call for warming, circulatory support, and gentle detoxification. This Warm Lemon–Ginger–Garlic Sipper fits perfectly. It’s simple, soothing, and deeply supportive for the lymphatic system and digestion, making it an ideal daily ritual during seasonal transitions, immune challenges, or periods of sluggish digestion and drainage.
Why This Sipper Works
A warming, antimicrobial blend designed to support:
- Lymphatic movement & drainage (warm fluids, garlic, ginger)
- Digestive fire & bile flow (ginger, lemon)
- Immune resilience through antimicrobial and antiviral compounds
- Morning detox pathways without stressing the liver
- Gentle circulation support for sluggish or cold constitutions
Pairs especially well with Tick Immune Support lifestyle protocols focused on lymphatic flow, digestive strength, and foundational daily rituals.
