It’s finally spring! Unfortunately, along with the beautiful weather and blooming flowers, comes the dreaded seasonal allergies.

2. Apples

Fruit in general is awesome, but apples are especially great. Don’t love apples? Dip them in peanut butter and surely you’ll change your mind.

Eat them with mozzarella and balsamic vinegar, in soup form or even drink a V8 Juice.

Any warm liquids are great. My personal favorite is earl grey.
