Oral Allergy Syndrome Friendly Fresh Mint Tea

For anyone who experiences tingling or itching from raw fruits, vegetables, or certain plant proteins, finding a soothing hot drink that actually feels safe can be trickier than it sounds. The good news is that heat breaks down the proteins responsible for those reactions, which is exactly why this simple steeped tea works so beautifully. Boiling water poured over fresh mint sprigs does the heavy lifting, transforming raw herb into a fragrant, gentle infusion that's easy on the mouth and throat. The result is a pale green-gold cup with a clean, cooling aroma that feels almost medicinal in the best possible way. A touch of honey stirred in at the end adds just enough sweetness without complicating the ingredient list. It comes together in under ten minutes with nothing more than water, fresh mint, and an optional drizzle, making it one of the most effortless comforting drinks you can pour yourself on a rough day.
