Over the last couple of years and especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, immunity tea has seen a rise in popularity and understandably so as consumers seek out ways to support their bodies better in their day-to-day. Indigenous-founded brand Hawaiian Natural Tea—a small business that offers a range of organic teas for enhanced well-being—boasts a powerful immunity tea of its own. Called MANA, which means 'supernatural power,' the blend contains plant-based nutrients and organic ingredients such as cinnamon, black tea, hibiscus, peppermint, and spearmint. The ingredients were chosen because of their high antioxidant concentration and high Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) values. The immunity tea by Hawaiian Natural Tea is further powered by two locally sourced ingredients—the nutritious superfood moringa and a traditional Hawaiian medicinal plant called māmaki.
