I’m back from a very inspiring trip to Italy.
It seems that back home, autumn has taken over and there is no turning back. Cold season has come hand in hand with fall – everyone around is sneezing and sniffling.

I came up with this healing drink in a hurry, when my husband felt a sickness coming on a day prior to an important meeting. He drank it before bed and woke up feeling no signs of a cold, no joke! I later tried this method on myself, and it worked once again.
It goes without saying that you don’t need to be sick to enjoy this medicinal drink.

The mix of nutritionally dense goji berries, alkalizing lemon, anti-inflammatory turmeric and raw honey is sure to give your immunity a good boost. The flavor of the tea is bright, much like its color, and will have a warming effect.

When Organic Burst sent me a sampling of their pure, ethically traded super-powders, I knew what to do with their Baobab powder right away – it took this Goji Tea from very good to dynamite.
Here is a chance for Golubka readers to try the baobab powder, along with spirulina, wheatgrass, maca and other healing products from Organic Burst. Leave a comment here until November 5th, 2014 for a chance to win their Full Range set of nutritious goodies (we are giving away two).
