The Pleasures of Herbal Tea

Herbal teas are not derived from tea plants but from various herbs and plants. They are very versatile and can even be used for cooking. 

A wonderful way to truly enjoy herbal teas is using herbs directly from your own garden. There are many herbs which will help your health. Choosing to grow those herbs means you have a source of a healthy tea when you use them to brew a cuppa. 

There are teas that will help with fever, stress, blood pressure and even diabetes. I'll talk about them in another posting. Herbs can be dried and used all winter long. Drinking tea daily is good for you and most enjoyable. There are many health benefits of drinking tea that is not associated with drinking coffee.

I like cold tea; I take fresh herbs with a pitcher of water, and about two cups of fresh herbs. Then in about a day your fresh herbs that you have grown in your new garden. Have the time to soak in the water. Now just sit back in the shade and enjoy a cold brew of your fresh tea.
