I like pine needle tea.

Got a stubborn head cold that started off with a sore throat so I've been making a sage tea every day.  I actually hate tea (but like the smell of it, oddly enough) so I've been adding a spoon full of local raw honey to it to make it palatable.  Does a great job to soothe a raw throat.

Don't confuse it with Yew needle tea, which the Romans used as a suicide drink :o

Yeah, Taxol is bad news unless you are using it as a chemotherapy drug.  :-\

Do you have horse mint, a.k.a. wild bergamot mint in your area?  3-4 leaves from this plant in a cuppa strong black tea is a fantastic version of Earl Grey.

I also find wild spearmint around here, catnip mint, raspberry leaves, and wild licorice root.
