DD has a nasty cold and her ped suggested I give her warm juice or a herbal tea to help break the congestion. The problem is that she didn't mention which herbal tea I could try.<br><br>
I have pomegranate tea, raspberry leaf tea, some other various fruit teas, and mint in my pantry. Would any/all of these be OK to give to dd 18mos old? Any suggestions on what would be helpful to buy when I go the store next time? So far I have stuck to the warm juice but she doesn't seem to enjoy it much and I;m a bit worried she's not getting enough liquids. (I am giving her chicken broth too since she's not much into solids right now and she still nurses but only at night).<br><br>
TIA, Kim

Hyssup and licorice root are a really good combo for breaking up congestion. You could and in some colt's foot, and/or red raspberry leaf which is good for fighting off infection.
