if you like a "spot of tea" { im mimmicking a english accent here} lol, youll like this i think. right now i go to my yard i find yellow wood sorrels. a bunch of them boiled in a pot of water makes a tasty tea . i like a little sugar in mine. sometimes i throw in a few leaves of fresh basil. another tea i like is staghorn sumac tea. you cut some berry cones. i stick about 7 cones in a pitcher of hot water. let set a few hours.i then stir and try to bruise the berries that make up the cone. then strain through a fine screen into a second pitcher. ad sugar or honey to taste. you can drink it hot or cold . its very good. another one i like is pine needles mixed with wild mint. of course sugar or honey to taste. and recently, i found that golden rod is blooming everywhere right now. just tried it for the first time. very good.anyone else have any "tea" recipes???

We have a lot of peppermint in our garden, it makes a very good tea if you have an unsettled stomach.
Sage (plus honey) is good for a sore throat. Not tried much else for fear of killin' myself  :laugh:

I like tea. I'll have to try some wild stuff. Mostly stick to Earl Grey.
