I make my own chai with black tea bags and the various spices added. My favorite black teas are darjeeling and assam. I did pick some large rosehips one year from my garden and dried them and made that into tea, but I was NOT impressed by the flavor - haha! Still, it may be very good for your health, which is the point. I think it's a grand idea to grow the herbs yourself, harvest and dry them, and make your own teas. SO much cheaper than the grocery store! Keep us posted on what you discover. I need to get back to drinking peppermint also. It's a lovely taste in tea.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-55422412947632961272014-05-11T21:34:37.282-06:002014-05-11T21:34:37.282-06:00We drink herbal tea, and especially my girls.

However, in summer I like a good strong iced tea sweeted with a few drops of liquid stevia especially with my lunch and dinner.

Thanks for the inspiration. I was surprised by the alfalfa part. I didn't even consider using it for anything other than livestock. I may have to get a bale for myself. Even with the occasional snow it is nice to have green grass.Bonnie Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052974547161586063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-82678823717909291042014-05-09T09:04:29.490-06:002014-05-09T09:04:29.490-06:00I will be tracking down that book.

My daughter used it for three of her kids but the last one she had moved to Arizona and didn't have the Nettle tea, she was in labor 12 hours with her forth. She was never in labor with the others longer than two hours. Not to mention it is so high in iron. <br />I do love herbal teas and try to keep my mints for just that purpose as well at the other herbs I have. There are so many wonderful healing things to learn. I have never heard of that book but it sounds incredible. Thank you for sharing about it.Farm Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998621464797636686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-76662515140613415402014-05-09T07:27:18.950-06:002014-05-09T07:27:18.950-06:00The book must be very informative and as it's ...The book must be very informative and as it's easily obtained and inexpensive handy for reference. I would like to know more about herbal teas as I do enjoy drinking some. They can be refreshing and also have health benefits. I like camomile using the dried product from a herbal shop as I don't grow it myself. Otherwise I use tea bags - peppermint or raspberry leaf being favourites. The alfafa and the nettle tea sound interesting. Someone in Italy has mentioned rosehip for muscle problems and, of course, a good vitamin source, but the products at the health food store are expensive. I remember being given rosehip syrup as a child so perhaps I will look for wild hips later in the year to make an infusion. Glad to hear the grasses are greening up there.

You've done a LOT of research Ms. Jody! I'm not a coffee drinker and haven't been a big fan of teas -- I've tried to drink more tea, but it's hard coming for me. <br /><br />And Spring! I think it's finally here! Our trees are finally leafing out just this week -- I can imagine the prairie must be looking beautiful now!Thimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-79552736490267469612014-05-08T21:29:19.493-06:002014-05-08T21:29:19.493-06:00I read your post and i appreciate your efforts.
