The Jenkintown Food Cupboard would like to thank Olive Lucy, 301 Leedom Street, for their longstanding support.

During the month of January, Olive Lucy will donate a box of tea to JFC for every purchase of their teas or “Peace and Olove” mugs.

In honor of National Hot Tea Month, here are five fast facts about tea, courtesy of Olive Lucy:

1. Teas and herbs blends are packed with antioxidants (just like our olive oils and balsamic vinegars).

2. It’s an immune system booster.

3. Green tea mid-morning can kickstart your metabolism.

4. Black tea – mid-day because it’s easy to find, pairs well with food, and can be a nice shot of energy when you need it.

5. Herbal and fruit fusion teas in the evening, for when you want to stay away from caffeine and wind down for the night.
